Not much crackling in mine either but dont really care - it works great. If I get real close I can here something like a crackle but the fan kinda overwelms it as we always have ours on high

I'm not aware of a button which will release a crackling sound. I have not seen the video and mine does not have sound affects.

That long whistle sound pops on when power supply is not sufficient. At least from my experience. Try a much lower power draw device on it like a mini Christmas light set and see if the problem persists.

When it is on the fan is running. That is the only noise to be heard, The noise will go away when the burner is turned off. I don't seem to mind the sound.

I seem to have that problem too. I thought I was doing something wrong and just got in the habit of turning it on with the button on the actual fireplace...it is very odd and somewhat inconvenient but not enough to mess with a return.

Mine is not silent but it doesn't rattle. I can try and grab a video tomorrow.

I seldom experience a hissing or crackling. When I do I just scan and the noise goes away. This happens very infrequently to me. I rarely have any problems with hissing. I found out a while back that if you are too close to the TV you may experience a hissing. Just move a little bit away and it will clear up.

I purchased Dec 2011, my unit has a clicking, but it happens only when I move the camera around, like shaking it or more like when it's rocked side to side. It sounds like something is loose inside, like a small screw. It happens all the time, even when the camera is turned off. If I didn't know of the issue, I may not have really noticed, so, not a huge issue for me. Camera works great nonetheless and I still love picture and video results.

Yes. The crackling/popping noise that was only occurring after the bulb was turned off, now happens while on also.

Push the timer down to activate it. Haven't yet figured out the fireplace yet. Seems to be broken as everything else works fine.

The only thing I can think of is to adjust the input settings on your computer's audio settings, or there is a program called Spin It Again, by Acoustica, that cleans pops, crackles and hisses. I hope this will help.

Hi, Haven't had ours for long enough to have any problems. However, knowing what little I know about electrical heating elements, if it's making noise that's probably not a good sign. Would take the time to send it in either for repair or replacement. These aren't complicated devices, but the potential for fire is always lurking the background. Don't want to overkill, but wouldn't take any chances... Jay Miller

sounds kinda crappy to me =/ it gets that crackling noise if it's too loud/heavy. i'm no expert though

Yes there is soft "clicks" when it first comes on but there are not as loud as previous baseboard heaters we had in the past. Once it is on and hot the periodic cycling makes less noise. My wife says she notices more than I do, but neither of us are bothered by it, and it is in our bedroom.

Hello, got this camera since last Christmas, I have made few video and watch them again today, neither heard a noise on the background

I believe the clicking noise starts when the screen is too close to one of the cameras. Perhaps you should move the cameras to another place in the room and see if the clicking goes away.
