This time I wanted to a baby monitor with a minimum of radiation exposure. Unfortunately, all had baby monitors that have performed well in the Foundation Ökotest, here at Amazon so such bad reviews what the practical value concerned (noise, false alarms ect.) That I could not bring myself to buy one of the recommended equipment. At the end of a baby monitor to be reliable in the first place indeed.
Therefore, I am but then landed again at a Avent. Namely, in this model, because eco mode suggests that is not here - will be permanently sent - like other baby monitors with DECT. Is also true - really. The baby monitor is namely with the default "Smart Eco mode" in which the transmission is switched off automatically when the baby about half a minute has made no noise (our old Avent without Eco mode has not done that, it was "time-to "). So I was only once satisfied and reassured and since the baby monitor worked from the first turning on immediately, I did not read through the instructions on. Now - months later - ". Not this is far from what I thought" I'll be by chance that the so-called "smart" Eco Mode smart "is here only that the base station, the radio signal strength automatically to the removal of the parent unit tunes. So the closer, the less radio strength. But nevertheless it constantly sends out a radio signal, which is precisely what I wanted to avoid!
One has only the "smart" Eco Mode "in the" Eco-Max Mode "switch (ie, the audience measurement off) to actually switch off the continuous transmission. The name choice of two operating modes I find here very misleading. I had assumed that the "Smart" is fashion transmitted as little as possible. Of course, I'm on this misunderstanding to blame (who can read is a clear advantage), but honestly, who reads have the user manual from cover to cover, if any device is ?! Straight because the subject radiation for many parents is important, Philips would have this but on the package more clearly highlight, I think!
Who switches to the Eco-Max mode should know that the baby monitor then strikes with some delay, since only the wireless connection between the two stations must be set up with after the noise in the nursery, however. We do not mind that but since the delay is really low. Also you should know that the sensitivity of the sensor can not be set to the highest level in this mode, because then it is time Sent. But that's not bad, because it so responded very well.
Oh, by the way, we have one of the "waste", which should have the serial fault alleged that at the Talk button Press recently the wireless connection fails. I can only say that we have tested it x-time and the error is with us, although actually once, then never occurred again (well, once is enough, yes, so you're unsure). If you stay longer presses the talk button and the intercom function actually activated, but the problem does not occur anyway. Whether the device therefore must now actually change, but undecided. I have to honestly say that we have never been accidentally on the talk button so that you can actually neglect this problem. And who sometimes just want to "listen" for baby, even if it is silent, has just come long enough to press the Talk button. Then it connects then again clean and you have to make no head.
PS all the bells and whistles with songs and starry sky is totally unnecessary. I would prefer, the device would be slightly cheaper, would simply abandon these useless extra features and be limited to the basic functions of baby monitors.
