Nice device, but reception is not perfect
(4 out of 5) by metzmatt on Mar 24, 2008 (Scottsdale, AZ)This device is easy to use and set up.
Here's what I like:
- Basically, it works
- It's compact
- The picture is clear
- With the infra-red camera I got to go with it, it sees at night!
- It works with up to four cameras (but you have to switch it between them - it won't scan)
Here's what I don't like:
- Reception is intermittent. The base unit appears to be VERY sensitive to orientation and proximity of other electronics.
- Without the cradle, it's not very stable on a desktop
- It comes with a cradle, but when it's in the cradle, the AC adapter doesn't work. The AC adapter only works plugged directly into the unit, and because of the location of the plug, it cannot be plugged in and sit in the cradle (which offers great stability) at the same time. I found an after-market AC adapter to work around this, but it should come with an adapter so you don't need to go buy one.
