Audio Baby Monitors

A baby monitor is probably the single most used baby item a parent will use. Choosing one can be hard because there are so many options. When selecting one, look for the following: A low-battery indicator: If the batteries quit, you wont hear baby, so you need to know right away when to replace the batteries or plug it in. Size: The smaller the model, the more easily you can carry it with you wherever you go. Multiple receivers: Some models come with two receivers which is nice because you can leave one next to where you sleep and carry the other around. With certain brands, you can purchase additional receivers. A sound activated light: Normal household noise can drown out a babys cries, but with a sound activated light youll know with just a glance whether or not baby is awake. The right bandwidth for you: Some high-end models offer a wide bandwidth (up to 900 megahertz) for better clarity. Thats fine if you live in a suburb or out in the country. But if you live in an area with a lot of potential interference (portable phones, cell phones, other monitors, and so on), a low bandwidth, such as 40 megahertz, will serve you better in the long run.Baby monitors can cost anywhere from $40 to $90 for radio models ? the price depends upon the frequency level ? and up to $300 for those with the video option.Here are my top three baby monitor picks:Graco iMonitor Multi Child Digital Baby Monitor $116.00Monitor two children OR two rooms at the same time!
