Socket Outlet Camera
The Socket is a camera in the shape of a standard duplex wall outlet. It mounts flush against the wall with the included bracket and plugs into a real outlet behind or beside it, so the look is factory-standard.
Baseboard height is a view most cameras never get: it covers doorways, hallways, and pet areas at the level where the action happens. It is a favorite for watching dogs that are supposed to stay off the couch.
Video only, no microphone. Note: the Socket is not a functioning electrical outlet. Nothing plugs into it.
