It has been the topic of discussions that baby monitors, especially audio types, pick up more than just sounds coming from the baby. Some parents tell stories of their baby monitors picking up EVPs. What are EVPs EVP is short for the term Electronic Voice Phenomenon. EVPs pertain to sounds or voices that are allegedly coming from beyond the grave. They not only allow them more time to themselves and to work, but most especially, they give them the opportunity to provide for the safety of their children even when they are not right by their side. However, with the many different types available in the market, new parents may find it puzzling to choose which monitor would be the most practical purchase for their budget. On the other hand, parents who own bigger houses or live in multi-story residences require a device that has a longer range. In this way, they will know for certain that the transmitter and receiver will not falter even in extended distances. Portability Every now and then, people may share a similar opinion when it comes to size. What Baby Monitors Do Baby monitors generally help mothers oversee the baby without being stuck inside the baby s room all day. Through this, mothers are able to do what must be done around the house thereby accomplishing a lot. From the time baby monitors have been first released, countless of innovations have been made. It is important to know though that these devices also have a limit to their range. Special Features Some video baby monitors have special features. This is mostly based on the manufacturer and provider of your baby monitor. One great feature of some video baby monitors is the night vision capability. In video monitors, interference may come in the form of fuzzy or static reception. These wireless interferences are usually caused by other wireless devices around the house like the wireless phone or a router. Other wireless baby monitors from your neighbor s house can also cause interference. Fortunately, there are ways to solve these kinds of problems like adjusting channels or changing frequencies.
