## Questions & Answers

**Q: What kind of bateries does it use. Need to know in case i ever need to replace them.**
A: Not sure for sure but most of that type of gag takes the CR402 small round battery

**Q: what batteries dose it take, and ow many?**
A: Sorry, I cannot answer that either because I could not find a way to open the gag gift to replace the battery so I just tossed the unit.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐ Cheap
*by C***S on April 25, 2013*

Doesn't even work. The normal button to take a picture isn't even the shocking mechanism. You have to get someone to try to hit the arrows by the fake screen which are solid and not real buttons to press the shocking part. It's a dead giveaway- which I wouldn't expect much except it hardly even works. Even when i'm trying to shock myself it takes alot of clicking and fidgeting with it to even get it to work.. Since I bought it as a gift and with a multitude of other prank toys it's not really an awful thing and could be good if it WORKED, but the one I got must have been a bad batch because it certainly didn't work like it was designed/ advertised.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ great fun, with a little modification....
*by J***N on February 21, 2014*

This shock camera is plenty realistic and well crafted, The button is kind of stupidly placed, but it works. The only real problem is that it weighs almost nothing and therefore is not convincing in original form.I opened it up (4 screws) and taped some weight into the empty section inside (I used 3 oz of tape on wheel weights) and then it was a prank to be feared!I carried it around work and used various stories to get people to handle it:"look at the pictures on this camera we found""Hey, how do I turn this on?""look at what **** did with the company camera"In the first day I shocked maybe 20 people.This is a must buy prank!

### ⭐⭐ Piece of crap
*by D***1 on October 21, 2010*

You have to push the button on the back to get a shock. Not very useful when you hand the camera to someone and tell them to take a picture. Also the lense piece was missing, making it look even more unrealistic. I would not recommend this to my worst enemy!!
