Title: Nice monitor, VERY POOR battery life
Product review: Its a great monitor and we have thoroughly enjoyed having it - until the video shut down and finally the whole unit stopped working. The battery pack in it went kapfloie and our daughter is only 5 weeks old! The monitor cannot be used while hooked up to AC - it works while on battery mode only. It must be charged regularly, and after a short time the batteries could no longer hold a charge. If you open the back of the monitor to check the battery pack it clearly states, "Use only original battery pack. Warranty void if other batteries are used." A replacement battery pack is $30-$35, but I don't want to have to buy a replacement every 2 months for a warranty-less monitor!?! That would be the price of a whole new monitor over the course of a year! Grumble.
