Works Well
I've been using this for 2 months and it works as described. Set up is extremely easy. I didn't encounter any interference from my other wireless devices which are numerous. I have a camera mounted by each entrance door. One is outside and has been exposed to heavy rains and continues to work fine. The night vision isn't great, but I didn't expect it to be. Batteries don't last for more than 3-4 hours so it's not a good solution if you don't have a nearby power outlet, but it's probably perfect for a portable baby monitor. The only complaint I have is that they don't make extensions for the AC power adaptors. The 6.5 ft cord wasn't long enough for either of my installations. It would have been much easier with a longer adaptor cord.
Update 1/21/2010 Both units have continued to work well when temps fell into the single digits. I had to make an enclosure for the outdoor camera. Snow kept getting on the lens cover and then refreezing. The enclosure is a cheap plastic cup. I just cut a hole in the end, slid it on the front, and used my friend Mr Duct Tape to make sure it doesn't blow off. I suggest making an enclosure for any outdoor installation to keep the lens cover dry. If it gets wet the video will be blurry until it dries.
Update 8/26/10 The cameras continue to work great. I found the easiest way to weatherproof is to slip on a piece of foam pipe insulation. The foam tubes with a 1 1/4" inside diameter fit perfectly. Those are the ones sold for insulating 1" pipe. You can find pipe insulation at any hardware store for B0029U2W3C-2 per 6 foot length. Snip off a 4" piece, slide it over the entire camera and adjust so it doesn't obstruct the field of view. Leave as much extending past the lens as possible.
