How quickly does this turn on and off? Is it closer to a second or a tenth of a second? And does it turn off automatically when the video feed stops?

It turns on almost instantly, definitely less than a second. And as soon as video feeding stops, it shuts off as well.

Well there is no ON or OFF button so the monitor goes into a sleep mode when there is no video feed. It still may consume power while in sleep mode but not much. Another way to turn it off is to isolate it from the power source. I hope this helped.

When plugged into power, the monitor still appears to be "off," with no blue screen or anything. When a video signal is supplied, the monitor powers on in under a second, but I don't know exactly how quick. The screen goes black (off) as soon as the video signal stops. Hope this helps!

When the video feed becomes active, the screen is clear in less than a second. The screen goes black instantaneously when the feed is stopped. As to whether the unit actually goes into low power mode and when, there is no way to tell without instrumentation.

When I shift into reverse (at which time power is applied to the connected backup camera via a tie-in with the backup lights), the screen comes on immediately. And yes, as soon as the video input stops, the monitor shuts off.This is the camera I use with the monitor:Esky EC170-08 High Definition Car Rear View Backup Camera

Yes there is an option to turn video off by putting the contrast down and still be able to hearAlso the video can be shut down after being idle for certain amount of minutes

Video is constant when parent unit is plugged in to outlet only. When operating on battery, after a few minutes the video turns off, and you have to push a button to turn on the video -- video on my unit does not come on with noise/sound.

I get between 3 hours 58 minutes and 4 hours 8 minutes in my tests of continuous nonstop snapshots every "2 seconds" (which is really more like 5 seconds but...). That's without shutting it off to recover. So if you use it intermittently I think the total time might be a bit longer. I love this cam by the way; I've bought 3 of them.

It was much better than I was expecting. I thought it was very good for something so small and inexpensive. It will video continuously for one hour before you have to recharge it. It is a very fun thing to use because nobody had any idea they were being filmed! Hope this helps!

If you choose to record in manual mode, it can record for more than 70 min. ( Tested ). But if you choose to record in motion detect it only records "clips" of 5 or 10 seconds !! ( or snapshoots). In my opinion is very bad those options!!

Yes, it turns off after one minute or five minutes, depending and you selection.

This camera has a real sensitive sensor that activates quickly and picks up even the smallest movement. Now as far as how fast the camera resets, it depends on how you use it. If you have it on a food plot or feeder it will generally reset within 5 seconds. If your set up on a trail to check what's passing through I suggest turning over to video mode because the camera catches the first movement but the animal may be gone before it resets for another picture. I hope this helps you!

I think it is 15 seconds to 2 minutes range of "on" time whenever motion is detected. It stays on if there is continued motion in range of the sensor. It then reverts to the delay setting and shuts off after there is no longer motion.

My connection is not SUPER fast, it claims to be 15 MB/sec but it's always lower than that. It depends on the connection of who watches it. Like from my phone it interrupts sometimes. I noticed that the camera disconnects sometimes depending on where you install it. Keep it away from interference (microwaves, wireless phones etc.)

There is a slight delay, maybe 1 second at most. I don't use it this way. I only capture footage from my DVR, and I have it connected with a 1x2 HDMI switch box where only 1 signal is active at the same time, which mean that when I'm capturing footage, only the PC receives a signal. You could hook up a 1x2 HDMI splitter which is active on all feeds at the same time, but I've found that those can be kind of unreliable and they are much more than I need for my particular setup.

There are two settings, what I'll call continuous streaming, and periodic streaming (i.e., on for a minute, off for x number of minutes (I forget the actual times)). In both cases though, it is just on until the water reservoir gets to a certain low point and then it shuts off automatically -- there is no timer. In continuous streaming, it will last for about 3 hours or so.

It turns itself off relatively quickly once no activity happens for a few minutes. I have never timed it to see how many minutes....maybe 4 or 5?

14 secs is about right, but, it turns off 14 secs after the last motion it detected. Therefore, as long as there is something (like a car or person) moving, it won't turn off.

The camera automatically starts when it receives 12V power. You can adjust time that video appears on display.

The product is very new to me, so I really do not know. I have the camera set to take photos rather than videos, and I have it set for 10 second intervals. I am getting pictures of wildlife, especially by night, and not many of birds and squirrels, etc. by day, (which I am glad of, as I would be getting hundreds of pictures - I think the camera is too far away from the birdfeeders). Anyway, I really don't know how fast the camera triggers.

I'm surprised you got video! the one I bought won't do anything! Well it turns on but nothing else. I would look for a better cam.
