Are two pads necessary? I'm on a budget & not certain if I should buy the deluxe or the regular version of this monitor.

We had one sensor pad. Had false alarms now and then, but they decreased when we turned the sensitivity up. Also, make sure you have a piece of plywood that covers the entire area beneath the mattress so if the baby is in the crib corner, the breathing can be detected.

I think it is helpful but not sure it is necessary. We still had false alarms every so often when we had two pads.

I'm tempted to answer, "yes, of course, save yourself the two or three dollars" but there's no way for me to know how that monitor is configured. If it's a good deal on the monitor, get it, and buy a charger that will work, later, after you've identified the + and - pin locations.

The monitor IS available for purchase without the printer. There's not a whole lot of savings, but you can buy it that way.

No, you would need something else to use two monitors at once. This is used for switching between two monitors that are used one at a time.

No. It is only one. You have to buy two separately. But they do work as left and right monitors and the sound is very clean and nice! You won't be disappointed.

Yes - one must be VGA and the other digital. You can also run one monitor of either input type.

If you want absolute full color display, its worth it. If you're happy with your monitor's display as it comes out the box, then you don't need it. Go and search youtube where you will find very good info that will answer your question more accurately.

mine came with both...I would assume tho that you can google pads and covers for built in ones and you can find them on ebay or amazon...

I purchased mine on Newegg and mine didn't come with one. Being as it is a regular Display Port, I would say no. Be sure that you do get an ACTIVE Display Port adapter though if you are going to be using at least 3 monitors (2 can use just DVI/HDMI). I found a $22 ACTIVE Powercolor Display Port adapter on Newegg.

I also bought a radio with the rear backup camera option so a separate monitor is not needed. The radio video screen is the monitor. If you don't have a compatible radio or rear view mirror then you will need a separate monitor.

I don't remember it's been too long since I ordered it but you will want more than one pad anyway. I would say you need at least two. That way when one is dirty you have another one accessible.

You're welcome! I love this monitor. I've bought two already and might be purchasing another one. :)

Two. Needed something that works well with both Win7 and Win8 and is scratch resistant. I have no complaints. But if you want to meet Microsoft's Win8 specs for a minimum 5 touch point monitor, can try and find something like the Dell S2240T (10 touch points).

Hi Randal, I'm not sure if you mean 2 base units or 2 monitors. I have one base unit and 2 monitors and have no problems at all using both monitors at the same time. I don't know if 2 separate systems with 2 different base units would cause a problem, sorry I cant help with that.

I like this monitor, however I had problems with the first one I ordered. I ordered a new one and at times the screen will display broken images. Almost like the Monitor has damage. Not sure how else to describe it to you. I have to turn it off and turn it back on to get it to work properly. As for the extra equipment, we never purchased anything other than what came with the monitor. Good luck! and Congratulations!!

Correction, you're tying to run both? Why? This card has dual screen capability, you shouldn't need the other card at all.

Yes you can, and remember the last monitor in the chain can be a basic monitor with a single input DP port. So you could save the extra $100 or so on that last monitor.
