More Details
The screen is mains powered and free standing so it can take pride of place in your living room; as well as coming with a connector so you can wire it up to your television. The baby camera comes with a bean bag and tripod stand so it can be located anywhere in your child's nursery allowing you get the best picture on the parental screen. Being mains or battery operated also allows complete flexibility in the baby-cams positioning.
Another great feature of the video baby monitor is the infra red night vision. You can also set the monitor to be sound activated meaning that the monitor will only show a picture on the screen when sound is detected in the infant's room. With 4 channels to choose from you can scan to find the best picture quality or even attach multiple cameras if you have more than one child.
I opted for this larger screen version which was a bit more money but in my opinion well worth it - I find with the smaller screens that you can barely see anything. The picture is very clear and great colour (daytime). Sound quality is also very good. Having read lots of reviews of this product (on other sites) some people have had interference issues - I have had none at all. Previous monitor disliked the microwave and washing machine but this one is fine with these and WiFi PC as well.
The only drawback or disappointment that I have with the product is that the monitor / screen does not have cordless / battery operation (camera does although I have not yet tried this). My last one did and did mean that you could carry from room to room or take into garden with you. I now have to unplug and plug when moving round the house and will just have to buy an extension lead so we can sit outside in summer evenings. Not therefore a big hardship but just would have been nice feature to have.
Being able to watch through the TV and record if required is wonderful - with so much rubbish on TV these days we can sit for hours just watching the little one sleep (like having your own junior version of Big Brother!)
Overall an excellent product. Packaging is very good, product looks good and works very well. I would thoroughly recommend to anyone with a child.
