Has anybody tried using two of these in 1 room (for siblings)? Would that work or do I need different alarm tones? Thanks.

I only used this on one child. The device does vibrate when it goes off. That may help to distinguish the difference. I would think you should get one with different alarm tones to make it as easy as possible. I hope this helps.

I am not sure. It is loud enough to wake my husband & I in our room which is down the hall from our son's room. It didn't wake my college age daughter whose room is directly across the hall from him but she is hard to wake. Maybe try doing one at a time. Unless they don't wake easily and then it may work at the same time. Malem Ultimate also vibrates on the child so it is a combination vibration/noise.. Can YOU handle being woken up by both at night? That might be tough!

The monitor has two parts. One on door and one on frame. The only way one alarm would work on two sliders is if it could be mounted with the two parts mounted on the overlap of door panels in the center of sliders. Sorry but not home to look at it with parts in hand.

The contact could only be mounted to one door which would leave the other with no alarm. Unless, you mounted the the whole alarm unit. To one door and the contact to the other door. That wouldn't look good.

It is very confusing. I had a hard time doing it myself. I honestly don't even know how I did it. I just played around with it. I do not set the alarm bc it is VERY loud. It's also for my 4 yr old so he doesn't really need an alarm. I am sorry I am not much help.

To make sure I heard the alarm, I bought a baby monitor. Works good and my daughters bedroom is two rooms away from mine. I did have to mess around with the alarm arranging it to where I thought it would go off as soon as my daughter sat up. To me, this alarm helped me out a lot to sleep better. I loved it so much I bought another one to put on living room couch for when she sits watches t.v.

Yes, this is exactly how we use this. You push the talk button and can speak into the room where the other unit is placed. One challenge- if your kids have headphones on, they may not hear you. There is also a cAll button that is a ringer to help get there attention before you speak. Great device!

all sensors sound the alarm on all speakers. So if you have 2 sensors you can just use a single alarm speaker.

It sounds on both units if you have them both on. You can have just the child unit on if you are keeping baby in your bedroom. Then only the child unit will sound.

I think the answer lies in how the rooms are configured. This humidifier is a bit over-qualified for just one bedroom, but I'm not sure how it would work for two separate bedrooms. My best guess on what would work for you would be: Use one humidifier for the living room/kitchen combo and one for the space between the bedrooms, during the day. If someone needs more moisture while sleeping, move the humidifier to that bedroom for the night. My experience with whole house humidifiers is that they tend to over-humidify, which tends to lead to mold and mildew.

I am looking at the owner's manual and see nothing about two channels. And I don't see any reason you could not have two sets in the same house. I've learned the nursery unit is very sensitive and picks up the sound of TV in the family room. We leave TV in 24/7 - if you do the same I suggest you turn the volume down. We use the to monitor our new dog who sleeps very soundly in her crate in our kitchen. I worried she might be distressed during the night and we wouldn't hear her. So far we are very satisfied with this unit. The number one reason I purchased it was the comments that it didn't "hum" or make other noises that to me would be disturbing.

Provided you set up the color-coded frequency (very easy process) to do so, yes. I did too, for a time; however, it didn't really work all that well for me. I have 2 young children; a baby and a 5yr old who sleepwalks. If I heard a noise I didn't like that wasn't a voice, I had to check both rooms, possibly not getting where I was needed as quick as I'd like. Since you'll be getting 2 receivers anyway you might wanna give them different frequencies.

They're very loud. We use a set of 4 to cover an 8000 sf daycare facility with two separate buildings, all keyed to a single panic button, A second location used three of them set up the same way. We use them to trigger emergency drills. They can be heard without difficulty throughout the property, and outside as well. They should be used indoors only, and connected to AC power although they have battery back up power as well. Not sure about the other reviews stating the units aren't loud enough. They emit a piercing wail that you want to get away from as quickly as possible. They would seem to be a sufficient deterrent to an intruder. They're very loud.

Yes, the bed alarm goes off quickly. It would go off in my room, I would get up & go to my mother's room and be there just as she was sitting up. That way I could help her out of bed to use her bedside commode. I didn't have to worry about her falling in the middle of the night, and she never could understand how I knew she needed help!

The kit comes with 1 sensor. You can rinse, dry, and reuse the same sensor, but if it's not completely dry it will set the alarm off when it's plugged in. (I bought a spare, but haven't used it because I found that my child only typically goes once at night. If that is not the case for your child it would probably be easiest just to have 2 sensors as in the middle of the night you might not feel like dealing with the "cleaning/drying" of the used sensor.). Hope that helps. Good luck!

Can this thing work as a silent alarm? I want to use it so that I know if someone is walking through the hallway outside my office, but I want it to be silent on that transmitting end and be notified by the remote. Does anyone know of a product like that which I can use that is discreet and won't scare the crap out of my co-workers?

Nest Protect does not communicate with non-Nest Protect alarms. If you have a large house, I would recommend replacing them as your current alarms die or gradually. I've done it this way and it doesn't seem like such a financial burden rather than doing it all at once.
