A Truly Private Connection
Designed for parents who want to keep their connection with baby as private as possible, the Private Connection provides a choice of 10 channels on its discreet transmitter, thereby reducing the likelihood of either someone picking up your transmission or crossover marring your connection. At the same time, 900 MHz technology offers a more powerful signal, a greater range than most nursery monitors, and crystal clear sound.

Large, Easy-to-Read LCD Display
The Private Connection boasts a large, clear LCD that shows battery level, channel, volume, and range; the five-LED display shows the sound level when the volume is turned down. With this clever design, you can hear a baby's call and see it, too, making it easier to readily decide if baby needs assistance.

The Private Connection measures 3.3 x 11.9 x 12.2 inches (WxHxD), weighs 2.5 pounds, and comes with two 3.6-volt rechargeable NiCd batteries and a compatible charger power adaptor.

Customer Reviews

read if you plan on using the AC adapter!2
Monitor itself works fine -- but not if you plan on using the AC adapter.....

Fisher Price customer service recommends that the AC adapter should not be plugged into the reciever for more than 13 hours at a time or the rechargeable battery and/or unit will be damaged. In my mind that makes the product useless if you intend on using the AC adapter -- you'll have to remember to unplug it every morning or risk wrecking the thing! (the fisher price rep actually told me I'd "fry it").

Best Monitor on the Market5
My wife and I have 3 children ages 3 and under so we've got baby monitors all over the house. We've used I think in total 5 differet models from 4 different manufacturers including Fisher-Price, Graco, Summer, and Sony. We've used both audio/video and audio only. This Fisher-Price model is by far the best we've used.

- Range. We have approximately 1500 sqft on the floor where we sleep. Our bedroom is on the opposite end of the floor as the youngest baby's room. Other receives either didn't pickup at all or when they did they were full of static and background noise so much so that there was a continual hissing of static that we had to constantly endure. This receiver can be set at a very low volume so that background noises are almost silent but the baby can still be easily heard.

- Rechargable. With the other monitor receivers it was a hassle to move from room to room. You have to unplug the receiver and find somewhere else to plug it in. One of the other models did offer a battery backup but we didn't use it for fear of going through batteries all the time. This receiver has a built in rechargable battery. Unplug it and take it with you. When you're done plug it back in and it charges and is ready for the next use.

We're very pleased not only with the quality but also with the price. Amazon's price was nearly $30 less than Babies R Us.

We have been very happy with this product. We used to have to move our one receiver around with us when we wanted to hear if the kids woke up in the night. The two receivers make the logistics much easier. The choice of channels also reduces interference and makes getting good reception pretty easy.
