LW1010 Highlights:

Trilingual The LW1010 supports three Languages: English, Spanish and French, in the User Manual, the Quick Start Guide, and the Packaging.

Night Vision This camera includes IR LEDs, which provide the camera with the ability to view images in low light conditions. It is important to use the provided power adaptor (not the 9V DC Battery Adaptor) when using the camera for prolonged periods in low light conditions, as the LEDs will drain the battery more quickly than regular daytime use.

Multi Camera Operation and Auto Mode - Switching Between Camera(s) (2nd camera sold separately)
This LW1010 can support a total of 2 cameras. When the receiver is set to AUTO Mode, it will continuously switch between connected cameras. The switching time is set to 4 seconds per camera (by default), however this can be adjusted to 2~30 seconds.

Options for Viewing/Recording
The LW1010 can be connected to a TV or Monitor using the AV to RCA Cable (included) to the RCA ports in the TV or Monitor. Connect the LW1010 to a VCR or a DVD RW to record the data from the Cameras.

Powering Options
The LW1010 Wireless Camera(s) require a power source (either an electrical outlet or battery power) to operate. If you plan to permanently mount the camera in a location (on the wall), it is recommended to use the included Camera Power Adaptor to prevent interruptions in the image. The Battery Adaptor is intended as a temporary power solution, so the camera can be moved or placed on top of a surface you do not want to damage with screws (a dresser).

Enjoy listen-in audio from the built-in microphone and the ability to optionally add batteries so that the camera is truly portable

A video reveiw would really stink on this if I used the video this junk camera shows me at a distance of about thirty feet.
I waited too long to get a refund on this camera while I was waiting to find some decent software to use with it.
Still havent found anything good to record with,this is a serveillance camera,right? more like a baby cam , U can use a web cam for that.

If you purchase this security camera for outdoor use, be sure to also purchase and upgraded 5.8MGh transmitter/Receiver A/V with IF. We bought the camera to watch a pregnant mare in the barn and the static over the t.v. kept us up. The upgraded equipment made it so much better. This is a 900 MGh system so your cordless phones and household appliances will interfere!!

I added this portable camera to my wired Lorex system. For those that complain about the picture quality, it is because of the wireless interference. It didn't take me long to reposition the receiver to get a better signal (I used a longer video cable to mount the receiver higher). The quality matches it's price. It is used to monitor my teenage kid's parties. It's not good at detail, so I don't recommend it for front door or reading license plates. The night vision is also adequate for the price. It has enough IR for a 20x20 room. Remember, more IR's require more power which produces more heat.

If you use the 2 camera system, it will switch between the two. It doesn't simultaneously view both cameras. I forget what frequency it uses, but the receiver is around 5 ft from my linksys wireless G router. I also have a wireless phone system (10 handsets) using dect 6 which doesn't cause any interference. When I mounted the receiver too low (4 ft) I notice video interference whenever someone walked by the receiver. Mounting it closer to the ceiling cleared up all interference.
