Sharx SCX2601LD 2.4 GHz Wireless Pan Tilt Audio Video Baby Monitor Security Camera with 2.5" Color LCD Display Screen and Night Vision
From Sharx
The perfect baby shower gift. Use of this product couldn't be simpler. You just plug the camera into power somewhere in the baby room and plug the display into power in another room. Then you can instantly see clear, colorful video on the portable LCD display. You can also use the included A/V cable to connect the receiver to a TV for viewing on a bigger screen, or you can plug in the included earphones for silent listening. 3 channels are available. This means that you can add up to 2 additional Sharx Pan/Tilt Baby Monitors or indoor/outdoor Sharx 2.4 GHz wireless cameras, or you can leave a free channel in order to be able to use a 2.4 GHz computer Wifi network at the same time. However, if you do have a Wifi network at your house you should really consider our new Sharx SCNC2606 or SCNC2607 Wifi camera instead. Like any wireless baby monitor, this product is not recommended for use in very dense apartment complexes. In that case you may have so many other wireless devices nearby that finding a free channel would be difficult. IMPORTANT NOTE: Do not buy this product from vendors other than SECURCAM_RETAIL. Only SECURCAM has the genuine product, all others are counterfeit and will be removed from Amazon.

Has to be the best monitor out there.
My husband and I are expecting our first child in September. We received this amazing baby monitor as a shower gift.
I just have to say that once we took it out and got it working, which was easy, it was amazing. The quality of the monitor is so clear and the color and night vision work great. When we went to try out the night vision, we actually thought we had left a light on.
The camera itself is a clean design and a perfect size to place anywhere. It also has a great scan feature and the area in which it can view, covers our whole 11x20 nursery (left to right and top to bottom).
The audio works great and the headphones are a great feature for when I want to hear him, but my husband is sound asleep next to me. I also like how I can either have the monitor plugged in or put batteries in it and take it with me around the house. It's very light weight and the screen is just the right size.
This monitor also has other amazing features that we just love.
1) We can easily set up software on our computer that allows others to view the camera (up to 8 at a time) from their house, when they set it up too. This is something I really enjoy because our family and friends are in other states, but we can still share special moments with the baby in the room. It's almost like they are there with us. (Don't worry you can shut the program off if you don't want anyone viewing. i.e. breastfeeding).
2) My husband likes the tv feature. He can plug in a few things into our tv and have a small pop up screen in the corner. So my husband can watch tv and keep an eye on our little one.
I honestly never really review items, but this was too awesome to not mention. Hope you enjoy it as much as we do.
Take Care!!
Does what it claims it does!
As long as you read and understand how this product works and don't expect a lot more, you should be extremely happy with the product as I am.
Since my baby was born (he's now 17mos), I used the Graco monitor (just audio). It's a wonderful product, but over time, I found video would be of great help to avoid going into his room to check on him and possibly waking him up. - Long story short... it sounded like this sharx baby monitor would be perfect. Video, Audio, NIGHTVISION! and remote control of the camera! WOW. Almost too good to be true for the price. But it really does do it and wonderfully! Although the audio isn't like the Graco monitor, it's still great. The Video quality is fantastic and the nightvision is better than I ever imagined. It's really cool.
I was worried because my husband's a computer geek so we have tons of computer accessories and gadgets and on a wi-fi network. It turns out not to be an issue since it's all mostly in the living room and we mostly use the video monitor in our bedroom.
We have cordless phones, but they're 5.8ghz which don't cause interference.
We rent in a 2 family home in NYC (neighbors everywhere, semi-detached homes) which had me worried that we'd catch interference somewhere, but somehow, it doesn't. It works perfectly fine.
The only time I have a bit of trouble is when we take the monitor into the living room, it starts to get a bit staticky. Not horrible, but not clear. But that's ok, since I mostly want it when I'm trying to sleep and hear the baby, but don't want to wake him up further by going to check on him unnecessarily.
Furthermore, before purchasing the product, I called the manufacturer to get more information. They were of great help! I feel confident that if I needed or wanted to call them again with questions, they'd do whatever they can to help.
I am a very happy customer!
Very clear!!
This video monitor is very clear in the day time and at night in total darkness. I love the tilt feature cause my little one does a lot of moving around in her sleep. It is very easy also to set up and easy to use. The video monitor is not too small and very lightweight so it is easily carried around throughout the house. This is my first experience with a video monitor and I'm so glad I choosed this one! Thanks sharx!
