4 out of 5 stars Foal Watch Camera   May 14, 2008
We bought this camera not as a security feature, but as a "foal watch" camera to monitor our mares out in the barn about to foal. It was easy to install and we have been very happy with the clarity of the picture. The only thing is when the cordless phone rings, the picture goes bonkers, but other than that, it's worked out fine. Good value for the price.


1 out of 5 stars Don't bother   April 7, 2008
This product isn't good at any distance. I had it as close as 2 feet from the receiver, and it still wasn't worth it. Don't try to have it extend out any further than 10' without expecting serious degradation of quality. We got this camera with the intent of watching our 2 year old son at night. He likes to get out of bed and play with things at night, so we needed a way to observe from our room. Our bedroom is about 75' from his room. The frame rate was way too slow and the picture quality left a lot to be desired. I'm not sure of your planned use for the device, but it would be a waste for anything outside of watching a turtle crawl in the brightest room available. Then, and only then, you might be able to tell what you are watching.


4 out of 5 stars Not as good as a wired camera, but easy to set up.   October 17, 2007
Easy to set up, this system can mess up your wirless local area network (wlan) if you have it on the wrong chanel. Concrete and steel mess up the reception, so if you live in a concrete and steel house don't expect great reception. It works best within line of sight. Over all, I kept it.


3 out of 5 stars Not a bad system   July 19, 2007

Nice system. The cameras are small enough not to be noticed. Be warned that the "battery operation" of the camera is for testing only. The manual states that the cameras are not designed to work long term on the battery (9 Volt). The power cable supplied is size "h" and not terribly long. Be sure to consider where you can run power from when you install. Also, the Swan AV/power cords sold through Amazon are not compatible. This is a major headache if you do not plan for it. Finally, here in Florida, we have concrete walls. This limits the working range to about 30- 40 feet. Overall the cameras are nice but for my particular situation they are not up to the job.


1 out of 5 stars Horrible range   July 19, 2007
  1 out of 1 found this review helpful

You are only able to receive decent image quality if the wireless receiver is right next to the camera itself. It defeats the whole purpose of being wireless. I have mine set up only 15-20 feet away and all I get is a shaky screen. Stick with wired cameras instead.
