Digital camera Review: Please do not think about buying this product...
Summary: 1 Stars
I never wrote a review before, but for this product, I am writing a review simply because I didn't want other people to be dissapointed with this product like I did.
This product simply does not work.
I bought two locator since I have two kids.
Ohe child locator did not work at all.
Other one works but battery dies within couple of hours....
Very very dissapointed...
Digital camera Review: Short indoor range
Summary: 3 Stars
If I walk down the other end of the aisle in Target, I sometimes lose the signal. Ok I guess if your child is beside you and you are worried that if you turned your back, someone will swipe your child. Holding their hand will accomplish the same thing in my opinion. Personally, I dont see much practical application for this. We stopped using ours.Digital camera Review: This device DOES NOT WORK
Summary: 1 Stars
First of all, I'm a bit of a gadget geek and work in the IT industry, so I think I'm a pretty good judge of quality when it comes to electronics.
We recently moved into what most would call a great neighborhood. One downside to our new house is that it doesn't have a fenced back yard for our kids to play in. One day our 2 1/2 yr. old son managed to get out of the house and wandered down to the street corner one house down - he likes to go for walks. Jinny thought he was out helping me in the garage. I thought he was inside. Some 'nice' neighbors brought him back (thanks!) then proceeded to call the cops and report us for child neglect (Thanks for nothing!!!) Whatever happened to watching out for neighbors???? They obviously don't have small kids. The police were very understanding and assured us they were only following up on the call and not going to arrest us. Kudos to the police for doing a great job.
So, now my wife is terrified to let the kids out of her sight. We bought this device as a backup, not the primary way to keep track of the kids, until we can get a fence installed.
After convincing him it was a nice watch to wear, we proceeded to test it.
Inside the house it picked up the signal and indicated direction like it's advertised. When we went outside, as soon as our son walked more than 15 feet away, the receiver couldn't pick up the signal, and that was with clear unobstructed site. The device claims you can set an out of range warning signal for up to 98 ft. It doesn't even work for the shortest range setting.
If you decide to take your chances, there are also a couple of other minor issues to consider. The wrist band is too easy for kids to take off. Our son had it off in less than a minute the first time we put it on him. Second, this is more an annoyance, there's no way to disable the 'panic button' on the watch.
Don't waste your money! It's a great idea, but the device doesn't work! Hope this saves someone else some time and money.

Digital camera Review: Useless device
Summary: 1 Stars
Received 1st locator, signal distance was terrible. Thought it was defective. Replace with 2nd locator, still the same.Digital camera Review: Very low range tracking device
Summary: 2 Stars
Got it. Works fine except some direction determination inaccuracy. The only and main problem is the operating range of around 10 meters max outdoors and 3-4 meters indoor. From my point of view can be used for tracking babies up to 2 years only. No value for my 3,5 year old "hurricane" son
