A recorder in a keyring fob, so it lives on the keys you are carrying anyway rather than in a bag you have to remember. Voice activated, with 8GB holding up to about 96 hours of audio.
Up to 18 hours of continuous recording per charge, with a recharge of about 90 minutes. Pickup runs to about 10 metres and every file carries a date and time stamp.
Up to 18 hours of continuous recording, and considerably longer in ordinary voice activated use because it idles between sounds. A recharge takes about 90 minutes.
The 8GB of internal memory stores up to about 96 hours of recordings.
The built in microphone picks up to about 10 metres in a reasonably quiet room. Background noise, hard surfaces and distance all reduce that, so put it as close to the conversation as you sensibly can.
There is a short delay while it wakes, so the first word or two can be clipped. If the opening of a conversation matters, start it manually and let it run.
Connect it to a computer and copy the files. Each one carries a date and time stamp.
Recording a conversation you are taking part in is generally lawful in New Zealand. That covers the ordinary reasons for buying a recorder: your own meetings, your own interviews, a call you are on, dictation, and keeping a record of something that was said to you. Telling the other people is good practice, and it is what makes a recording useful later rather than contentious.
The limit is conversations you are not part of. Recording or listening to a private communication you are not a party to is interception under section 216B of the Crimes Act 1961, and it is an offence. If you record for a business or at work, the Privacy Act 2020 applies as well. Do not use this to record other people's private conversations. This is general information, not legal advice.
