    First thing I want to say is that this camera also works with the MBP33 baby monitor as well. We bought the MBP33 baby monitor for our 3 month old and we bought an additional camera to keep in our toddler’s room. We are pretty happy with it so far. I love the two way communication function and the room temperature feature. My only complaint is that we keep the camera across the room on his dresser, and the night vision light is not very strong so we can not see clearly all the way to his bed. It is about 7 ft from the dresser to the bed. If we adjust the light contrast on the parent unit we can see, but it is pretty dark and grainy. We previously has a Summer Infant video monitor and did not have this problem at all, but then again, the night vision feature broke after 2 years on that monitor. We keep the other camera above the crib in our baby’s room and haven’t had any problems at all. Overall, we are happy with the monitor and the additional camera.

    This camera was purchased for my Motorola MBP36 Baby Monitor which only comes with one camera. I needed a second camera for a new baby. Previous to purchasing the Motorola MBP36, I had used baby monitors from Levana, Lorex, MobiCam, Samsung, and Summer Infant (my search for the perfect one was a little excessive). This Motorola is one of the better ones I’ve used.

    The setup was super-easy, and it worked flawlessly. It’s the exact same camera that comes with the MBP36 set, so it swivels all around – tilts, pans and zooms nicely as advertised. It can be placed on a nightstand, and it can be mounted to the wall. I have both cameras mounted to the wall, about 7-8 feet away from the crib. The night vision is excellent. If you have the MBP36 unit with camera, you know exactly what you are getting. I was pretty happy with the purchase.

    About a month into using the unit it started to slowly lose the night vision feature. At first it was barely noticeable so I dismissed it; but another month in, it became pretty obvious that night vision was failing. Night vision was still working on the original camera (after months of use), but not on this additional camera (only about a month use). I swapped the two cameras between the rooms and tested them to confirm, and verified that night vision was gone on the second camera only. I probably got a defective unit.

    As night vision is one of the key features I needed, this camera became very inconvenient…it basically functioned only as an audio monitor for the second room at night.

    Thankfully, because I ordered from Amazon and this camera falls under the baby products 365-day return policy, Amazon replaced it at no charge. Order from Amazon if you want the peace of mind of a 365-day return guarantee. If you want 20% off the retail price, buy with a coupon from BBB, if there is one near you. I believe BBB has a good return policy as well.

    I gave it 4-stars because the replacement is working well. I assume that the first camera I received was defective. If this replacement camera fails also, I will write an update to this review and revise the rating.

    Purchased this extra camera for our second child, and paired it as Cam 2 to the MBP36 which I had just purchased. Initially the picture and sound would come up on the monitor, I would be able to switch to Cam 1 and the picture and sound would also work, but going back to Cam 2 the signal would be lost and it would not show picture or sound, and I would have to pair it all over again. I spoke to the Motorola help line in the UK and they do not recommend pairing an extra camera to the monitor. So I ended up returning it and having to buy an new set of camera an monitor. Problem in that is if the 2 monitors are close to each other one would lose the signal!
