For whatever it is worth it is a bad buy and one no doubt you will have difficulty with. There has been no difference in its operation. The camera has been to the factory on several occasion.
It operates on a 2.3GHz frequency hich is the same frequency for almost everything cordless, from phones to computers and routers, etc. Interference on the monitor is constant and moving the monitor does help somewhat. This product does not really work that well and I am very displeased with it.
Do not not confuse this camera and monitor to be professional equipmnt, it most certainly is not. As they say "BUYER BEWARE". The seven(7)led around the camera for night vision is really useless and in the dark gives no image whatsoever.
The ideal set up and use for this camera is very limited at best.
At night we place the cameras around the trailer to keep track of the kids bikes and camping equipment. I attach one camera on the rear of the truck to help me align the truck hitch and the trailer receiver - I can usually hit the spot the first time because I can monitor the hitch in the LCD Monitor. A great adaptation of a great product. I purchased the SVAT GX5203 Wireless Portable Video Security System / Plus 2 extra cameras to use on my camping trailer. I have 2 cameras (on magnetic bases) on the exterior of the trailer to help me see whenever I am backing the trailer into a camp site or parkling area.
Overall satisfied. I added two extra cameras as the system allows three total. The third interfered with wireless router, so I am down to two cameras. Robert(Cal)Installed the product within 10 minutes. I gave it four stars out of five because can't see much at night, but mobility of monitor was main reason for purchase. Daytime works great. Got it so my wife can keep an eye on the kids in the yard. Can't see much at night.
Overall I am happy with this given the price. This is a very good product, I use it to view my garage area when I am on the opposite end of the house. I also like the fact that you can have a permanent power AC adapter or battery option. The night vision is OK, but would suggest you leave an outside light on --it greatly enhances the picture quality. I can carry the portable monitor upstairs or anywhere in the house and can maintain a good reception. I have very few interruptions of signal.
The CSR was great over the phone and said it all has to do with how many led lights you have around the camera. We moved one camera to the house, right above the garage, and lowered the other camera to 12 feet. It's still hard to make out a clear picture at night. We just received the product along with an extra camera. I did move my wi-fi connectors and anything else that's 2.4gh can interfier()., but we no longer have the line down screen.All in all it's a good set up for the money, I just wish we had a clearer picturer a night. It might be that we have them too high up, so I will contact support tomorrow. During the day the picture is clear, but at night, we can't see a thing out of one of the cameras. Also I believe my satelite internet is causing the line that's going through it, and sometimes it gets fuzzy.I bought an RC jack to attach to our computer and an external hard drive so we can record 24hrs a day.Ok so I would say it's between a 3 & 4 now.
