Description

Worried about your privacy and security? Traveling and want to make sure the owner of the vacation rental isn't a creep?

The SG-2 is our favorite 'all-around' bug detector. Trusted by real private investigators, the SG-2 our favorite choice for keeping your space safe.

The SG-2 can find most wireless cameras and microphones. Plus, it detects hardwired cameras, which is an incredibly rare feature these days. If you'd rather manually look for cameras, it also has a camera lens detector. This covers pretty much all the bases for securing your space.

Using the SG-2 is easy. It detects both analog and digital bugs, with lights that get brighter and vibrations that intensify as you get closer to the bug.

To get the best results, turn off your wireless router and phones before using it. The SG-2 gives you peace of mind, knowing your space is free from unwanted surveillance.

Hiring a private investigator for bug detection can cost over $400. With the SG-2, you can do it yourself for a fraction of the price. Our detailed instructions guide you through the process, and we’re always here via email if you need help.

How It Works

When someone uses the term ‘bug,’ they’re usually talking about a covert device that sends a wireless signal. That device could be a hidden camera or microphone. The signal it sends usually goes anywhere from 50-500 feet, but it could go further.

The signal goes to a receiver, which could be a tape recorder or even a person in a van, like you see in movies. Yes, law enforcement actually does that!

So, you think you’re being bugged. Turn off all your electronics that emit signals, like wireless routers and cordless phones. Flip the power switch on the SG-2, and pay attention to the LEDs. If it senses a weak signal, a couple of LEDs might light up and turn off. The stronger the signal, the brighter the LEDs get. As you walk around the room, pay attention to those lights. If there really is a wireless bug, you’ll be able to pinpoint where it is.

The SG-2 also detects hardwired cameras by sensing tiny vibrations they make. This only works within a few inches of the camera, but is an absolutely great way of confirming something is a camera or not.

Use the camera lens finder to spot hidden lenses reflecting light. This feature helps you find even the most discreetly placed cameras, like pinhole cameras.

Expert Advice

Like the description said, it’s perfect for anyone that travels and has a suspicion a camera is watching them.

Hotel room hidden cameras are nothing new - there are news stories about that every week, it feels like.

This is the only bug detector we offer that finds all types of hidden cameras, and it also has a wide frequency range - it’s easily our best ‘all-around’ tracker.

We know you’re trying to be discreet, so we’ve gone the extra mile to have credit card transactions listed under ‘SGE LLC’ on your statement and not ‘SpyGuy’.


Do you accept checks, money orders, or gift cards?

Shipping FAQ


What is the order cutoff time?

Orders placed Monday through Friday before 5:30pm Eastern/2:30pm Pacific are shipped out the same day.

Orders placed after this cutoff time are shipped the next business day.


How do I get free ground shipping?

Every order gets free and fast UPS ground shipping. Over 90% of our customers get their order within 4 days.


Do you offer 2-day or overnight delivery?

Absolutely, we have these options at checkout. You’ll just need to place your order before the 5:30pm Eastern cutoff time, otherwise it’ll be sent the next business day.

  • 2-day - $19.99
  • Overnight - $39.99

Where do you ship to?

We can ship to any address in the USA. This includes homes, apartments, businesses, and private mailboxes.

We can also deliver to PO and APO mailboxes, but cannot guarantee 2-day and overnight deliveries will get there on time as USPS doesn’t guarantee these services.

If you would like something shipped internationally, our clients outside the USA seem to like MyUS.com as a low-cost method of having packages forwarded.

Please be aware of any international tariffs you might be charged.


What shipping carriers do you use?

We use a combination of UPS and USPS for our free ground shipping options, and FedEx for our 2-day and overnight methods.

If you have a special carrier request or requirement, please get in touch with us via the contact widget and we’ll do our best to make it happen.





What does the package look like? Does it say SpyGuy?

All orders ship in discreet, plain, brown or white envelopes and boxes.

The shipping label doesn’t say SpyGuy, of course! It says ‘Fulfillment Center’ and has the return address of the fulfillment center. The package contents aren’t listed on the packaging.

If you do an online search for the fulfillment center’s address, it doesn't return anything related to SpyGuy.


I want this sent somewhere else, is that okay?

We understand some clients don’t want this sent to their home or business, and that’s fine. Just give us the full shipping address you want this sent.

Make sure you also add the billing address, which is tied to your credit card or other payment method, otherwise your payment might get refused.


How can I track my order once it has been shipped?

You’ll be emailed a tracking number as soon as your order has shipped.

If you lost it, open the contact widget to key in your email address and ZIP code, and you can see the details about your shipment.

You can also email us at help@spyguy.com and we can assist there.

The only products we don’t accept returns on are iOS and Android recovery software. Software is non-refundable, which is an industry standard.

You can use our returns portal to start a new return and print off a shipping label.

Please, don’t send something back without talking to us or opening up a return request. 


Your package might get lost and we’re not able to help you if you do that.

How do I return a defective product under warranty?

Are any items non-refundable?

The recovery sticks are software, and are not refundable. We’re happy to exchange them with another product, if you like.


Is there a return fee?

Products returned in new and unused condition have absolutely no fees - you’ll get the full 100% of your order credited back to you.

In extreme cases, customers have sent us clearly damaged products, damaged or missing accessories, and boxes. For example, the products smell like cigarettes, or they return a product that isn’t even what they bought from us.

In these extremely rare instances, a damages fee of up to 40% of the product cost will be applied. We’re reasonable here, and we hope you’re reasonable, too.

Contact Us First

If you return your product without first contacting us and getting an RMA, or your return does not meet the conditions above, a 25% fee will be deducted from your refund.



Items That Aren’t Refundable:


Some of our items aren’t refundable. The reason is unfortunate - we've had customers out there who buy from us to quickly to get the answers they want, and then return the items to get a refund. The product, it solved their problem, and now they don’t want it anymore. 

It's an underhanded tactic that’s difficult to fight, and we can’t stay in business by being a rental company. Because of this, we aren’t able to offer refunds on the following products:

• Software
• Nanny cameras

    Works great! I tested it out in my own house, where I hid different cameras and web cams. It detected them both. I am a PI and will use this professionally.

    Great detector, ready to use!

    It's a great bug detector with a lot of great features. It's very easy to use if you follow the instructions. Being able to find hidden camera lenses is really cool and the detector makes the lenses stand out making then easy to see. It's also great being able to adjust the sensitivity. Overall, it's a great product!
