1. Watch CameraWith a tiny camera built into its face, this device can “watch” your surroundings. Two gigabytes of memory discreetly records two hours of spy-craft. And it keeps excellent time. $180
2. Enduro Pro Car Tracker Slap this magnetized GPS device on the underside of a vehicle and the battery will last for two months. Later, download the data to find out where the target has traveled. Featured in a recent episode of Breaking Bad, so you know it’s legit. $375
3. Button DVR CameraSuave and secretive, this camera peeks out of your shirt to preserve those office scandals and episodes of harassment in perfect, court-admissible clarity. $380
4. Gen II Night Vision ScopeYou don’t need to be a Navy SEAL to pack one of these useful nocturnal gadgets; you just have to be a deer hunter or a Silence of the Lambs fan. A perfect Father’s Day gift. $700
5. Wireless Surveillance CameraThis eensy-weensy camera isn’t much bigger than a junebug and can wirelessly record from up to 100 feet away – as long as nobody swats it with a rolled-up magazine. $160
6. Radio Frequency DetectorDoes your spouse “bug” you? Scrub the room for illicit video and audio recording equipment with this counter-espionage must-have. It’s anti-spying spy gear that spies use. $180
7. Voice Stress AnalyzerConduct your own lie-detector session without all those cumbersome wires and sensors. By detecting anxiety markers in the voice, this device will tell you if little Billy is lying when he says he loves you better than his other grampa. $300
8. Lock Pick SetComputer-age spies are mainly preoccupied with virtual locks like passwords and security codes. However, when it comes to the acquisition of material evidence, nothing beats an open door. James Bond would approve – his name dons the kit’s case, which happens to resemble a credit card. $30
9. Soda Can SafeDummy cans from Valley-based Southwest Specialty only look like they contain soda or cleaning products. Take heart: Nobody will think to look in a can of Arizona Iced Tea for your diamond stash. $15
10. Porn Detection StickIs your family computer a hub for the prurient? Rather than merely storing data like most USB-port gizmos, this device sniffs out remnant-data from illicit Web-surfing episodes and compiles it into one lascivious folder for your discovery and disapproval. $120
