Frequently Asked Questions

How does the RISK V3 Under-Vehicle Search Camera improve upon traditional search mirrors?

The RISK V3 offers improved visibility and clarity compared to traditional search mirrors as you are not relying on the reflextion along a convex mirror in order to identify potential risks under cars or trucks. By directly recording and allowing users to view the undercarriage on a screen, these devices greatly improve the chances of discovering a threat. As the V3’s camera is opposable, you can also see far deeper under a vehicle than would be possible with a traditional solution.

What is the battery life of the RISK V3, and is it suitable for extended use?

The RISK V3 comes equipped with a rechargeable battery lasting up to 8 hours of continuous use which should be more than enough for a standard shift provided that the device is turned off in between searches. The standard 1800mAH battery is fully rechargeable with a UK plug and charger included in the package.

Can the RISK V3 be used in low-light or nighttime conditions?

Yes, the RISK V3 features infra-red night vision with 24 infra-red LEDs, enabling clear undercarriage viewing even in low-light or nighttime conditions. This is a massive step forward from traditional under vehicle search mirrors where you would have to try and balance the glare of the torch with the correct angle required to view the target. Now, you use the search camera as normal and if the area is too dark, it will switch to night vision.

An example of this function is where, depending on your search profile, you might want to lower the sensitivity around the head and neck to avoid false alarms caused by jewellery if you are looking for items that can’t be kept there.

Is the RISK V3 easy to maneuver under vehicles?

Absolutely, it is designed with a 3-wheel trolley system, providing stability and ease of movement for effortless navigation under vehicles. While slightly taller than similarly shape search mirrors, the RISK V3 Under Vehicle Search Camera doesn’t have the same concerns about viewing angles meaning it can be moved around easily without obstructing the target. The camera head is also fully opposable should you require adjusting the point of view.

What types of vehicles can the RISK V3 inspect?

With a generous 12cm ground clearance, the RISK V3 is suitable for inspecting various types of vehicles, including cars, trucks, and SUVs and more. While traditional under vehicle search mirrors would be limited by their need to maintain a viewing angle, the opposable camera head on the V3 means that it is far more flexible in where it can reach. This means it can be used for larger trucks and vehicles than its predecessors.

How easy is it to set up and use the RISK V3 Under-Vehicle Search Camera?

The RISK V3 features a modular design, allowing for quick assembly and disassembly within minutes.

This reduces storage space requirements and makes it ideal for guard hutches and cabins.

The intuitive 7” LCD display allows seamless navigation through various configurable options, including application presets, sensitivity settings, alarm types, and more.

Can the RISK V3 capture and store footage for later review?

Yes, the RISK V3 comes with a 16GB SD card capable of storing up to 4 hours of footage. This function is mainly used if evidence is required at a later stage and is clear enough to be used in a court of law. You may need a SD card converter in order to view the footage depending on your PC.

Is the RISK V3 durable for long-term use?

Yes, the RISK V3 is constructed with a lightweight aluminum frame, providing both durability and reduced strain on the user during prolonged use. The wheels also help alleviate some of the strain on the user when compared to free hanging models like the RISK V6. Having both features means that this under carriage inspection camera can be used for long shifts without taking an undue toll on the user.
