If I have two TVs and two BOBs, do they communicate to each other, so that one child can't get double his allotted screen time by watching both TVs?

No, they don't communicate with each other. You might do some of the time on one, and some of the time on the other, or something like that.

There is no communication function between BOBs. It just works as a stand-alone device.

No, one item to split signal to two tv's.... in other words.. mirroring one image to two tv's.

To be able to communicate only with one you have to have a specific channel. On the other hand, if you activate the monitor feature, all can hear you

You won't see both cameras on the same screen at the same time. The cameras will be labeled camera 1 and camera 2. You can have the monitors scan so it will change about every 10 seconds. That is what I do at night. Or you have the option of switching manually yourself. It's pretty cool, I love having one in each of the kids room :)

There is not. It seems to broadcast to all outputs at one. The dual ports did not work on a Surface, so I can't say if they are two distinct displays or not.

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.

Hmm. Not entirely sure on that. I did have it on my monitor and HDTV through the HDMI at the same time so i wouldn't see why a third monitor wouldn't work. But not 100% sure on that.

That does happen in our home too. For that reason each of our four kids has had from 20-45 minutes (an average, if you will, to account for overlapping) which they wind up figuring out to share--with the one who's time it is getting show preference. Truth is, because we just have Netflix and not cable anyhow, so there's no draw to "current" or "latest" programs, our children sometimes find the path of least resistance is to do something other than watch TV. BOB continues to be an effective tool in our home the last few years.

I got this for my daughter and my father. She says yes you can use them all together because they have different channels. I would guess that everyone using it should be on the same channel whether it be channel 24 or channel 5 etc.

I only have two TV's hooked up to it, and it shows on both at the same time. Keep in mind that the first monitor will go dark for a few seconds once the second monitor has its HDMI chat with the box. I would assume it will display on up to 4 monitors/TVs/displays at the same time, but I haven't tried (no need for me).

That's a tricky question. I'm inclined to say no because it's hooked up to different mode on the TV (e.g., Component inputs vs. HDMI inputs). The Rf Link only sends a copy of what's on one TV and transmits it to another. Hope that helps.

As far as 3 different channels, no. You can have 2 on the same channel and one on another.

The BOB only has one outlet so I don't think you could plug in two things. Whatever you choose to plug into the BOB is secured inside it by a locking cover. You may try using a power bar but you would run the risk of you son realizing he could just unplug the Wii and TV from the power bar and plug them into the wall.

This unit only transmit a signal from one tv to another so 2 tvs. It's only a relay so you have to watch the same channel.

I'm still confused, and hoping someone can help. We have one of these right now, and with a 2nd child coming, I want to buy a 2nd one. I would like to be able to hear BOTH rooms on one parent receiver on the same channel. Is that possible? Thanks in advance.

I would say i would be too chaotic with two. we had another projector mobile too but every time we used one of the remotes it turned both of them on. Waking him up again and not soothing him at all. We ended up not using one at all right now as hes better sleeping without as hes soo inquisative. I would recomend only using one and if possible have it in the middle of the room.

Hi Micheal, The answer to your question is yes, but it depends on how you have the first TV connected to the cable box. If you have the first unit or TV next to the cable box connected to any output other than the video/composite video out on the cable box it is fine because you will need to connect the Leap Frog to the video/composite video out/put of the cable box. You will be stuck with the same channels on both TV's however.
