Honestly I we didn't get on with our video monitor. We have an audio-only Motorola monitor that operates like a cordless phone, it works for us a couple of houses away.
Direct ownership of an audio-only Motorola monitor with a concrete range detail — "it works for us a couple of houses away" — positive despite an unrelated complaint about a separate, unnamed video monitor.
We use the Motorola MBP36XL if that's still around. No WiFi, Big screen with night vision. Camera pans around. Both need AC power - camera needs it 24/7, monitor needs it 50% of the time so it can be charged. I'm sure there is a more modern version of it now?
Direct ownership ("We use the Motorola MBP36XL") naming the specific model, with concrete non-WiFi feature detail — big screen, night vision, camera panning — and a factual note that both units need AC power, stated without complaint.
I like my Motorola one we got at target. We bring it to the hunting cabin and don't have to worry about wireless connection. Only downside I'd say is battery life, as a power outage killed it, and it was $16 for a replacement one. Planning on getting either another one or an additional camera for baby #2.
Direct ownership ("I like my Motorola one we got at target") with concrete use case — used at a hunting cabin with no wireless — offset by a specific caveat: a power outage killed it and a replacement cost "$16."
This is so good to know! I commented above asking this exact question. My old Motorola camera had a really bright light which was very annoying!
