"I tested it on my phone camera and laptop webcam before the trip, and it did pick them up. Used it in the Airbnb and didn't find anything suspicious, which was reassuring. There's basically no guidance included though — I had to watch a YouTube video to understand what the different modes do."
— Lydia, verified buyer
Here's A Test You Can Run The Day It Arrives.
Take the Sentry Pen, switch it on, and point it at your own phone while the camera app is open.
Watch the signal bars climb and the alert fire.
That's the moment you stop wondering "does this thing actually work?" — because you just watched it catch a live camera in your own hand. Now imagine running that same sweep across a hotel smoke detector, an alarm clock, a charger that doesn't look quite right.
It Doesn't Look For Cameras. It Listens For Them.
A hidden camera can be smaller than a shirt button — your eyes will lose that fight every time. But to spy, it has to transmit.
The Sentry Pen picks up the RF and WiFi chatter these devices give off, sniffs out the magnetic pull of GPS trackers, and its infrared viewfinder makes even a non-transmitting lens glint back at you like a cat's eye.
Three ways to get caught. Zero places to hide.

The Numbers Nobody Likes Reading
Where The $9 Detectors Cut Corners
The sensitivity dial.
Cheap single-mode detectors scream at every router and microwave — you get 40 false alarms, you stop trusting it, it dies in a drawer. The Sentry Pen has 5 adjustable levels so you can filter out the noise and pinpoint the source.
The battery.
Bargain units eat a charge in an evening. This one runs up to 25 hours per USB-C charge — that's a whole trip, not a whole evening.
The size.
Full-size "wand" detectors look like airport security gear — try pulling one out in an Airbnb living room. The Sentry Pen is smaller than a lipstick and draws zero attention.
And a bonus mode the cheap ones never have.
Flip it to alarm mode and hang it by the door: if the door moves at night, it fires a loud 100dB siren. A detector and a travel door alarm in one pen.

Who Keeps One In Their Pocket?
The road warrior.
Hotels every month, a different room every week. Sweeps the TV cabinet, the clock, the vents while the ice bucket fills. Sixty seconds, then he unpacks.
The solo traveler.
First thing after the door locks behind her: one slow pass over the smoke detector, the TV, the vents. Then — and only then — the shoes come off.
The dad with a daughter far from home.
Dorm, first apartment, spring-break rental. He can't check those rooms for her — so he put the checker in her hand. No lecture required.
The one who parks in public garages.
Coin-sized trackers ride along under bumpers and wheel arches. One slow walk around the car with the magnetic sweep, and he drives home knowing nothing's riding with him.
Charges next to your phone. Ready before you are.
Yes — It Really Is This Small.
About the length of a marker pen. That's the point: the best detector is the one that's actually with you when you check in — not the one that stayed home because it didn't fit the bag.

Questions People Ask Before Ordering
Will it really find hidden cameras?
It detects the RF/WiFi signals transmitting cameras give off, the magnetic fields of trackers, and its infrared viewfinder reveals lens reflections even from cameras that aren't transmitting. No detector on earth can promise to catch every device in every condition — anyone who says otherwise is lying to you. What it gives you is the same sweep security professionals start with, in your pocket.
Do I need any technical knowledge?
One button, four modes, and the quick-start card in your box walks you through a room in 3 steps. Buyers in their seventies use it. So do their granddaughters.
Why does it beep near my router or microwave?
Because those transmit too — that's the detector doing its job. Turn the sensitivity down a level and sweep again; real hidden devices show up as signals where no honest electronics should be. The quick-start card covers this in step 3.
How long does the battery last?
Up to 25 hours of scanning per charge — for most people that's several trips. It recharges with the same USB-C cable as your phone.
Is it allowed in carry-on luggage?
Yes — it's a small consumer electronic, TSA-friendly, no different from a power bank or e-reader in your bag.
When will I get it?
Orders ship from our US warehouse — most customers see it within days.
