Lawmate PV-WB10i covert dvr and inbuilt camera
- CCTV Lens Guide
- Hard Drive Size Guide
Unless selecting a vari-focal camera (with an adjustable lens) It is important to select the correct camera lens option for where the camera is to be positioned. A smaller lens will give you a wider angle but will be "zoomed out more", while a bigger lens will narrow the angle down and "zoom in more". See below to give you some idea on angles of Megapixel HD Cameras:
| Lens in mm | Approx Viewing Angle (degrees) | Ideal Distance (metres) | Typical usage/notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2.8 | 106 | <6 | For seeing as much of the immediate area as possible such as above a doorway/low down/garage soffits (edges can appear slightly warped/distorted) - clearly "zoomed out" |
| 3.6/4 | 83-90 | <12 | A great general purpose option giving great coverage still in the corner of a room or higher up on second floor soffits with less distortion - more of a natural "zoom" |
| 6 | 56 | 6-20 | Narrows down the angle and zooms in to look past the immediate area a little to gain more detail - down a driveway for example from higher up |
| 12 | 24 | 20+ | Zooms in significantly more to look at a gate, entrance or adjascent building |
| 16 | 19 | 24+ | As above but more so |
The amount of hard drive space you require is dictated by how many cameras, as well as their resolution, frame rate settings, and whether you have H.265 encoding enabled or not to save space (We advise turning it on to double the capacity shown below with ease).
Finally, you can often make your storage space last a lot longer by enabling motion-detected recording rather than continuous, especially if there are long periods of no activity (to perhaps double or more these figures again).

Resolution (Megapixels) |
Days of storage provided by 1TB per camera (continuous - full 25 frames per second) |
Days of storage provided by 1TB per 4 cameras (continuous - full 25 frames per second) |
Days of storage provided by 1TB per 4 cameras (50% motion- 15 frames per second) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 44 | 11 | 36 |
| 2 | 22 | 5 | 18 |
| 3 | 17 | 4 | 14 |
| 4 | 11 | 3 | 9 |
| 5 | 9 | 2 | 8 |
| 6 | 8 | 2 | 6 |
| 8 (4K) | 5 | 1 | 4 |
| 12 | 4 | 0.5 | 3 |
As a rule of thumb, we recommend 2 Terabytes for a 4 x 4/5MP HD camera setup, as this should give you approx 2 weeks using H.265 @ 20fps and that is on continuous, not motion-detected recording.
(You may only require the full 25 frames per second on certain cameras if things are fast-moving - ie above a till)

This is the new LawMate PV-WB10i covert camera system. On the first appearance, this is a generic Wi-Fi booster module for your home or office. The new PV-WB10i module is actually a 1080p high definition covert camera system that actually works as a Wi-Fi booster too. The camera permits you to watch ‘live’ from anywhere in the world & actually operates as a functional Wi-Fi booster for your internet connection. Being a mains powered device, unlike so many other spy cameras, this one will never run out of charge.
Video can be captured either at 1080p, 720p or WVGA quality at 30 frames per second and the recorder will accept up to a 32gb Micro SD card. The device is easily set-up and controlled from the LawMate bespoke smart application (Android or iOS). The application will allow the user to ‘live view’ the video from anywhere in the world (network connection dependant). Further, as all settings are controlled via the smart application, set-up maintenance of this compact recording system couldn’t be easier.
The benefit of Wi-Fi:
With the ability of Wi-Fi connectivity, you can instantly review the footage you have captured on a smartphone or tablet and you can live-stream the video content up to a distance of 5 metres. The Wi-Fi connectivity permits the user to download the captured content wirelessly. The Wi-Fi application also allows full control over the device, including resolution settings (1080p/720p/VGA), the ability to set and synchronise the time and date with your smart device, format the SD card and start/stop recording.
Features:
• 1080p HD video quality
• 1080p/720p/VGA option via smart app
• Remotely control, view & download video from the device
• Free Wi-Fi application to support Android/iOS
• Video & Photo capable (2mp photos)
• Photos: 2MP Jpeg format 1600x1200
• Watermarked day/date/time stamping
• Law Enforcement grade video & audio capture
• Mains powered, no batteries required
• Active Wi-Fi booster module
• Supports up to a 32gb Micro SD card
• H.264 .MOV file format
• Sensor sensitivity 0.1 Lux @ F2.0
• Dimensions: 26x110x90mm
