I live on an acreage and use naptimes for gardening in the summer. I've had difficulty finding a monitor with enough range. Do you recommend this?

I am not sure what distance you are talking about. I have 1/2 acre property and parent's unit picks monitor sound everywhere.

No! We have trouble with 15 feet in our home. I would not recommend this monitor.

These did not work, the range was horrible. I purchased 2 pairs of the Angel Care monitors and they are great.

No!! It's much less effective than I'd hoped. We use it only in the house; our grand daughter sleeps in an upper bedroom during her naps, and the few times she's spent the night so far. The range is pretty much limited to that, I can't even go out in the garden in our little suburban plot

I have had mine for about three weeks. I am in the process of getting ready to write a review, but to address your specific question: Yes, it is an excellent choice for a work monitor. The screen real estate at native resolution is simply enormous. If you have Windows 8, I would suggest setting the font size to 125 percent or 150 percent, otherwise there might be some readability issues. This does not work as well with Windows 7, but you can try it. I use mine for video editing, coding, general web-surfing, gaming, etc. You can easily fit several windows on the screen without any issue. I currently use a 24 inch 1:9 monitor in portrait mode in conjunction with the Yamakasi. It works great for my needs, and you if you use a lot of applications, you might want to consider using another monitor as well. To give you an idea of how large the Yamakasi is, the 24 inch 16:9 monitor in portrait mode is only several inches taller than the Yamakasi in landscape.

Are you wondering distance the monitors can be from the camera or for mounting purposes? we love our purchase and can see across a 16 x 20 foot space/room. the monitor can reach a distance of at least 3 floors and out in the yard if I need to mow or check the mail. they can sit on a desk or counter top or clip on your belt or waist area. so great! Would buy again. Hope this helps.

i have mine as a doorway monitor but it is outside of my front door on my porch. as visitors walk up walkway the sounds of the amazon forest greet them as the landscaping in my front yard is a lush tropical feel. my neighbors call it the rain forest house! if you use it outside of the doorway it won't interfere with the room motion-only approaching motion.

I got good service when I returned mine because it wasn't as good as my current monitor.If you're on a tight budget I guess it may work. For me the difference was too significant to keep it. I was amazed because it was lauded as a great monitor, but when I got it, I was very disappointed

The sound is great on the monitor. It's really efficient and a strong signal. I really like this monitor. Just like any ongoing app on your phone it will drain your battery but not any more than normal. What i do is use my tablet with the app running while it's plugged in. But if you're just having it on while baby sleeps it won't drain your battery much. It depends on your phone too but I've never had any issues.

With my son we had a summer monitor and it did have a small amount of continuous static. We bought the Levana monitor with my daughter. We Love this monitor. Completely silent background noise. I can even hear my daughter breathing if I turn it up. Another impressive feature to this monitor is the battery life. We can leave it on 2 or 3 days before having to charge it. I highly recommend this monitor.

No, this monitor is not designed for it.Themonitor is pretty basic, so if you need to transfer data, youll need another model. If you need a basic one, I would suggest the FT4 which has bigger digits. RS100 visibility is poor in darkness.

No, it doesn't work as a monitor as it a push to talk radio. If you just want to listen to what is going on in the barn, I would suggest a baby monitor. The transmitted unit would be set up in the barn and the receiver unit in the house to be able to listen to goings on in your barn.

The range is easily a few hundred feet. My children have very early bedtimes and I use mine outside in the yard all the time! I can go about halfway into my 1 acre yard before the signal goes out.

My only experience is with the 25312 19" and so far I am very satisfied. I can mow my yard, slightly less than 1/5 acre without recharging the 4h battery. It also works very well for picking up leaves in the fall.

Yes. I have a multi-monitor system. The large ViewSonic is on the corner of my desk and is being used to answer your question. It has been a great investment.

I currently use this monitor for my dual set-up and have a friend who is utilizes it for a triple monitor setup. I have no complaints and neither does he, although finding ports for all the inputs into my computer was a hassle, but that's a problem with the PC not the monitors. Solid product for what you'd be looking to do I imagine

It would work for me 35-40 feet. The monitor was in a bedroom with one door, so depending on your floor plan it could work for a different distance; maybe even further. I would suggest setting the alarm outside of your bedroom door, due to the fact that it is very loud. This is a very good monitor. You will need to place it multiple times before finding a good spot. I only needed to know when they were getting out of bed, if this is true for you then you will need to find a place where if the patient just turns over, or rubs their head the unit does not alarm.

We use sunshine apps baby monitor hd and it works well. There is a slight transmission delay most times of about 2 or 3 seconds, but it is not an issue for us!

I only use the device for exercise monitoring, now that you asked about sleep monitoring, Il give that a try.

Not very well. You'd be better off with one of the 1-3$ iOS apps for sleep/activity monitoring as they give more detailed and useful information. As noted the sensor cable is short and the widget ends up under your elbow and the sensor creases are scratchy.
