Baby Monitor

#1 Post by majkell » Sat Jun 11, 2022 1:09 pm

A few months ago, our dear friend gave birth to a little princess. My boyfriend and I came up with the idea of buying them a nice present. Where are thinking to buy them a baby monitor? Now I was researching a little and found some Baby-Monitors that are quite expensive. I'm wondering are there some good ones that are a little bit cheaper?

Instead of a baby cam, I got a few wifi security cameras that had infrared and sound.

This let me view the kid through a web browser and listen on my computer. IIRC, there was also a phone app, but I never used it and it's probably been abandoned at this point.

The camera supported ftp, email, and other standards whenever it detected motion.

7 years later, they still work as security cameras around the house.

Somebody gifted us a baby camera for my third child. It was much more fragile and had less features. I don't think it lasted four months.

That's really nice from you :)
I personally have this one https://productz.com/en/nova-babycall-v ... by-monitor and I'm very happy with it because you can even hear when the baby is breathing and the clock ticking its so good... The transmission quality is very good and also the additional functions such as the songs that help your baby to fall asleep are very useful too.
I also had one that only responded to sound but it wasn't that good, because it sometimes did not react to the kid being awake... They both work with the adapter and they can also work on batteries so you can go out - they have a range of 300m.
Just do not buy the really cheap ones because they are really bad...
