Lorex LW2003 LIVE 'snap' Video Baby Monitor Since the video review is not very detailed, I want to add a few more comments. First, I absolutely recommend this monitor. I've listed some specific strengths and weaknesses below. What I liked: 1. Good range. In my two story house I got decent coverage throughout. The signal was a little weak when I stretched it to its furthest possible range, but I never lost the picture. 2. On the small screen the picture is crisp, with good color. You will never have to wonder what you're seeing. Look carefully at the image on the video I took of the outdoors and you'll see a crisp blue autumn sky with colorful foliage. 3. I think the portability is a key feature. The monitor can be removed from its base and slipped into a pocket as you move around your house. Very nice! 4. You can add cameras, all of which show up on the monitor. You can then...

First, we have previously owned a Summer Infant video baby monitor with our first child two years ago. We were not happy with it. The sound wasn't great and the video eventually went out on it after about a year of use. With our second kid we decided to get another video baby monitor and looked for one that supported more than one camera. Let's just say that there isn't a high quality video baby monitor out there that I have found. I'll start with the pros. Pros: - Video quality is as good as its peers. It won't wow you, but it serves its purpose. At night it has pretty good range and is more than adequate. - Little interference. We have cell phones, wi-fi, cordless phones, an audio baby monitor and many other wireless devices and we have not had any interference. - Range. Pretty good. We had the camera at the front of the house and were...

I've had the receiver on for 5 hours and the battery indicator is down to 33%. This is with VOX and Power Save both off. - I dropped this 2x on our (hard) floor and it still works (phew). - I expecially like the 2-way communication. I don't use it a lot to talk to our baby. I found it to be useful when my wife is with our baby and needs to tell me something. Not only can I hear her through the handheld monitor but I could reply! It's like having a video walkie-talkie. - Uses a micro-USB (I think) connector for power. This is the same connector used by some electronics (like my old Garmin nuvi 350, my Logitech Harmony 550 remote, etc). If you want an extra charger in another room you could likely use one you...
