My 9 year old wanted this to spy on family conversations. Little hard to use indoors. ALL sounds are picked up in the home. (ex. TV,running water,radio etc.) He is still having fun using it to magnify other noises besides conversation. We are hoping it works better outside in the summer. Goofy boy is hoping to target neighborhood deck conversations. If it works I could have fun with that too!!!

I bought this for my Ghosthunting team. Not only is great for wildlife but to hear ghost, is a must. Put it together with a digital recorder and you have your evidance. Great product and I recomended to anyone who wants to hear what they can't explain. Plus this product is great for wildlife. It can even be use to find lost campers or hikers when they are lost.

The Sonic Sleuth is an inexpensive item, but it can be used for more than a toy. It works nicely for listening to things in nature like birds and frogs. The gain control allows you to amplify the sound a lot, and there is a sound cut off to prevent you from getting your ears blown out.

This product is very in expensive. I considered much more expensive units, but what I needed was a device to listen to birds that were around a 100 feet away normally. I decided to spend a lot less money and hope for the best. Well let me tell you that the Sonic Sleuth was a welcome surprise. It is built very well, its very in expensive and it is very good.
Save your money, You don't need anything better.
