We have this baby monitor and another one from avent. We have also been in the same house as someone else who also has this baby monitor. So far we have never had a problem
The difference really lies in the colour scheme. The grey can be integrated wonderfully gently into any nursery. It is simple, doesn't stand out much and simply does its job - monitoring the baby day and night and giving the parents a good, safe feeling.
In my case, the baby part has a fixed cable and I can either plug in the parent part or leave out the mains adapter and walk around using the battery (or rechargeable battery)
The transmitter (baby unit) of the Philips Avent SCD503/26 baby monitor must always be connected to electricity and cannot be used without a cable. It does not have a battery option and must be plugged into a power source to function.
No, you can't just change the parents' sound.
A baby monitor picks up all the child's noises - it's up to you to find the distance that best suits your needs.
Flat absolutely no problem. EFH (in our case) wooden ceiling and 1 concrete ceiling no problem. But in the basement (i.e. another concrete ceiling) is too much. Then the contact breaks.
You can find replacement power supply units on Amazon and also in electrical shops, such as Rhyner in Egg near Zurich or certainly also at Interdiscount.
We only use the baby monitor with rechargeable batteries, it works great. If you then hook it up to the cable overnight, you never have to change the batteries and you don't get startled at night by the evil "Ding-ding - the battery is flat". I don't remember the clip...
