Looks like the real thing. They're flattened a bit to fit in the shipping carton, giving you a bit of control over the center assembly when you put it down. When inserting the battery, you can rotate the middle node to position the blinking LED where you want it. I don't want to climb stairs regularly to change the battery, so I didn't bother with the battery! Young children may be more likely to notice a flashing light and think they are being watched, but older burglars are still looking for cameras, so battery drain will depend on who you're trying to fool. I bought several to use on different websites and for friends. I would buy them again. For some people, they will serve as a good gift. I wonder what happens if I put one on the back of my car. :)
