Product Description |
| The MOBI technologies 70001 MobiCam Wireless System is a simple, reliable, and highly economical solution for any basic remote monitoring needs. Requiring no installation, the 70001 MobiCam system's compact design and wireless technology allow you to position the camera and monitor virtually anywhere making it both easy to use and completely portable. The 70001's camera features automatic voice-activated video transmission with an adjustable sensitivity, as well as IR (InfraRed) LEDs (light emitting diodes) that allow you to receive a picture in total darkness, making it an ideal solution as a baby monitor or for other in-home surveillance. The 70001 MobiCam's camera utilizes the NTSC signal system to achieve 510 by 492 effective pixels of resolution. The IR LED emitters allow this camera to receive a picture under no-light (0 Lux) conditions up to 10-feet away, while the built-in microphone allows for one-way audio transmission and enables the voice-activated video transmission feature. The MobiCam's camera includes a built-in 2.4 GHz omni-directional antenna and three selectable channels that allow you to use multiple cameras with a single monitor. This unit's compact design allows it to be placed in tight spaces such as cribs or shelves, while its adjustable ball-mount-style camera lens lets you achieve an optimum viewing angle. The MOBI 70001 camera can run on either nine-volts DC power via an included AC/DC adapter or eight AA batteries for additional portability, and has an operating temperature of 0 to 40 degrees Celsius. The 70001 MobiCam's 2.4 GHz monitor allows for signal reception from up to 300-feet away with a clear line of sight. This unit utilizes a 1.5-inch TFT (Thin Film Transistor, or active-matrix) LCD (liquid crystal display) screen that provides you with a clear and sharp picture with 490 by 240 effective pixels. The MOBI 70001 monitor includes three selectable channels to allow you to monitor multiple rooms, and a standard A/V (audio/video) output jack for connecting to a TV or VCR. The 70001's monitor runs on batteries or via an included AC/DC adapter, while optional PC software and an adapter allows for automated recording via the Internet, your cell phone or pager. Technical Features: - Signal distance: up to 300-feet (clear line of sight)
- Signal types: 2.4 GHz wireless transmission, NTSC TV system
- Sensitivity: minimum illumination of 0 Lux up to 10-feet
- Effective pixels: 510 x 492 for camera, 490 x 240 for monitor

Designed primarily for indoor use, the MOBI 70001 MobiCam system deserves serious consideration as one of the easiest and most portable economical monitoring solutions available, especially for parents traveling with a small child. While both camera and monitor are freestanding units, mounts are included for each allowing additional installation options. This system is made in the USA and was the winner of the 2004 iParenting Media Award. Users should note that the camera's image sensor may become permanently damaged if exposed to long hours of direct sunlight or halogen light, so the camera should not be mounted or pointed directly at the sun or other bright-light sources. About Surveillance Camera Technical Features
Lux rating is the measurement used to indicate how sensitive a camera is to light, and stands for the level of light reflected off a piece of paper by a candle from one meter away. Thus a sensitivity of three Lux would mean a camera could generate an acceptable picture of a piece-of-paper-sized object that was illuminated by the equivalent of three candles from one meter away. The lower the Lux level, the better the camera's ability to work in low-light conditions. The camera's resolution should be greater than or equal to the resolution supported by the system's recorder or monitor. The S/N, or signal to noise ratio, is an important measure of a camera's quality. A poor camera, low-light conditions or poor wiring causes "noise" which consumes processing power and disk space. A camera with a wide dynamic range is ideal, especially for recording areas in which both indoor and outdoor light are present. CCD (charge-coupled device) sensors provide high-quality images that are less susceptible to noise. CMOS (complimentary metal-oxide semiconductor) sensors offer less image quality, but are usually more cost-effective and energy efficient. What's in the Box

 AC stops working after warranty |
| Review Date: September 7, 2010 |
| Reviewer: TICK, Michigan, USA |
| The camera worked fine for us and we did not have a static problem unless we were over 30' and outside a concrete wall. The big disappointment with this camera for us was that AC adapter stopped working after the warranty time ran out. I am not talking about the cord (they stopped working at one point as well but the company replaced those) but the spot where the cord plugs in. Very disappointing in the quality of this product, there is no reason this area should fail other than substandard manufacturing practices and the company will not stand behind it. |
works great after 3+ years

| Reviewer: Mary J. Herrington, |
| I received this monitor as a hand me down and have been using it for the past 7 months. I live in a 2 story townhouse and the monitor works fine wether I'm down the hall or downstairs. The picture is clear on day or night mode. I didn't give it 5 stars because there is occasionaly some static lines across the monitor and the camera doesn't have the best mounting system. We just set it on the edge of the crib and it works fine there. Both the monitor and camera have been dropped numerous times and they are still holding up well. I would recommend this product. |
Stock up on rechargable AA batteries

| Reviewer: S. Johnson, Kentucky, USA |
| I bought this product, and then 3 weeks later found out that it was for sale 30 dollars cheaper than what I paid for it. I ordered myself the summer infant handheld monitor. I ordered this one for my sister. The monitor goes through batteries like crazy. Fully charged batteries will only last about 2 hours when not plugged into the ac adaptor. My summer infant monitor has a battery like a cordless phone, it recharges while plugged into adaptor. If I had known that the batteries did not recharge while plugged into the adaptor, I would not have purchased the product. |
Don't buying this product!

This product was perfect for us. Having a color video with night-vision is awesome. Saves you trips up and down the stairs, and lets you see what the baby is doing without having to peek in their rooms.
However, the reception on these is not great. They interfere with everything wireless. The camera killed my wifi, and even changing channels on both didn't help. I had to move my wifi around. Everything from wifi, cordless phones, cellphones and especially bluetooth create massively annoying static.
I hope to find a better product by my next child, because when they work properly they are very convenient.
I will admit that I am a gadget freak and probably didn't have room for one more 2.4GHz wifi device in my house. |
Mobicam a waste of money

| Reviewer: Nicole, Florida |
| The mobicam system was purchased for me as a gift at my baby shower. The equipment worked okay for a few weeks. After that, I can barely see my son with the monitor sitting only five feet away from him. The static and interference are absolutely horrible. I can hear my son through my bedroom walls before I can hear it on the monitor. My set came with three cameras and two receivers. One camera does not even work anymore. Do not buy this item! |
Better reception than other brand!

| Review Date: August 22, 2007 |
| Reviewer: Breanna Sue Talley, longwood, fl |
| I love this system. We had another brand summer infant and I always had horrible reception. I get perfect crystal clear reception throughout most of the house. The only problem area is the kitchen so I just leave it in the family room. It does make a lot of noise when the microwave is on so I just turn the volume down while using the microwave. I have had the camera for over a year now and it is still working perfect! In fact I just bought another "eye" for in my sons room and I am getting rid of the other monitor altogether. |
Many problems

| Reviewer: John D. Hoch, |
| I wish I had checked more into this product before buying. Almost any other household appliance will interfere with this monitor (microwave, vacume, radio, white noise sound machine, etc.) Also video quit working after 9 months...called and only a 30-day warranty.....I will be buying another MUCH better rated monitor from Amazon this time. Do NOT buy. |
DO NOT BUY

| Reviewer: Brooke Stately, Savage, MN |
| This thing is terrible you'd be better off using your own ears you can not go any where in the house with it. it works best about 20ft away but still has static and a fuzzy picture. Don't waste time spend the extra money and getr something better you'll end up buying something new within a week any ways plus with the static you won't be able to sleep. The only thing good about this item is the night vision. |
Don't buy

| Reviewer: Familyof6, |
| I got a mobi-cam because my child didn't make noise when she woke up. My mobi-cam always had interference and static. Resolution was poor at best. Within 4 months the camera stop showing, although I could sometimes have sound. When I contacted Mobi Technologies the person told me the warranty is only for 30 days - nothing they would do. DO NOT buy this. |
