Q: Baby Monitor
A: This comes with a charger.
Q: how far of a distance will they reach
A: I live in a duplex- each side about 950 sq ft. I can clearly hear my Mother’s activities in her bedroom and living room. I can holler at her just to make sure she is ok and she can hear me throughout her house. I am super impressed!
A: I have taken these outside to garden or take out the trash and I have used the walkee talkee feature with the base unit to talk to my wife. I believe if all units are on then it goes to all of them so there wouldnt be privacy between child A and child B talking to you.
Q: Would this monitor work from one house to another, across a street.
A: Hello, The maximum operating range of this VTech DM221-2 Baby Monitor is roughly 1000 feet outdoors, and 160 feet indoors. The actual operating range depends on environmental conditions, as well as any interference from outside sources. Thank you!
Q: I am very hearing impaired. Does this also vibrate?
A: Lin - Yes, the VTech DM221 has vibration alert. The parent unit will vibrate whenever the baby unit detects loud sounds. Thank you for your interest! ~VTech Support
Q: Could I use this model for toddler to call me when he wants me
A: Hey, yes you can. The non-parent end is a continuous microphone that the toddler could just speak into and you would hear them out the other end.
A: I would say yes. I have this for my child but when I got a job sitting with an elderly lady I decided to take it with me so that if I was in the laundry room (which was in her garage) or wanted to walk outside and still hear her if she called for me. It was sooo much more convenient on the days that she just needed to know someone was there. She had Alzheimer’s and so sometimes would forget and it was better to be able to say “I am washing be there in 5” rather than her just screaming and being worried if anyone was even there or not. Assuming the range it reached I would say absolutely it would work thru a window. One monitor doesn’t have to have a button pressed it always transmits sound to the other and the parent one has a button on the side you press when talking as long as you are okay with that I say this would be perfect!
Q: I purchased an additional parental unit (DM221) but cannot get it to link.
A: Judy - We are sorry but the VTech DM221-2 is a non-expandable baby monitor. You cannot pair or add another parent unit on the system. Thank you! ~VTech Support
