Review of the Levana BABYVIEW20 Digital Wireless Video Monitor

John Ehle
Electronic baby monitors have been a great asset over the years and I am glad that technology has finally made another fine addition to child safety. The problem for some when it comes to conventional electronic baby monitors is the possibility of having interference muddling up or even blocking the signals coming from the monitor in your child's bedroom. Not only can the interference be nerve racking but it can also pose an obvious safety concern.

The Levana BABYVIEW20 Digital Wireless Video Monitor offers a better solution when it comes to the old plain Jane "walkie talkie" type of baby monitor. When I had purchased and setup the product for the first time, I could tell a huge difference when it came to signal and sound quality. What's even better about the Levana BABYVIEW20 Digital Wireless Video Monitor has to be the wireless video addition. You can not only hear if your child is in distress but you can also monitor him or her in real time video. The night vision function for use at night time works extraordinarily well. If your child has a tendency to sleep in awkward or possibly dangerous positions at night, you will be able to immediately check on them with the Levana BABYVIEW20 Digital Wireless Video Monitor.

For the sake of conserving energy, the Levana BABYVIEW20 Digital Wireless Video Monitor has a standby function that will allow the unit to turn on when ever your child makes a noise. This will save you electricity as well as get the most out of the 4.5 hour battery lifespan between charges. The effective range between the room unit and the LCD monitor is claimed to be 150 ft by the manufacturer. I have observed a little less than that but solid obstacles such as thick walls can take a toll on signal strength no matter what kind of wireless technology is used.

The camera unit happens to be extra special when it comes to your baby's entertainment as well. The camera has a built lullaby song jukebox built in and you as the parent can control what songs are played from the remote monitor! The cameral unit also has a cool star and moon lighting effect that is very soothing tool you can use to get your child to fall asleep.

Setup was quite easy and the instructions included were more than adequate. Just in case there happens to be an issue, the manufacturer has setup a special toll free technical support hotline that is available 24 hours a day. The Levana BABYVIEW20 Digital Wireless Video Monitor also comes backed with a 1 year warranty.
