Product Review (submitted on March 25, 2016):

Bought this unit after reading the reviews. My requirement is to get wireless video from my livestock barn to the house which is right about 100 feet away. The video sender will /not/ shoot through the metal barn material. I mounted it on a piece of plywood up high in the gable end facing the house which is opaque material to let light through (plastic). This allowed a signal to shoot to the house. On the receiving end, the house material is very difficult to get reception through=concrete siding/plywood/studs/insulation/drywall. It took quite a bit of effort to find a spot to get usable video. I ended up with the receiver sitting on top of an older analog TV, with the receiver facing a glass window at about a 45 degree angle. So, in the end the video is "passable" but it is very grainy. I cannot imagine this unit working very well through multiple walls of a house or between a main floor and a basement, but it may be worth trying. For applications similar to mine that may be for a permanent basis (mine is not, I will hardwire) I would look into a more expensive unit with a directional yagi type antenna, the difference being the old mantra "you get what you pay for." So, try it. If it works, great, if it doesn't, return it. EDIT: okay, so today had to reset the camera to look at 2 critter stalls instead of one--to watch babies in one, and pregnant critter in another. I am running the 50 foot Cmple cable with BNC connectors...which the camera takes, but the Nyrius is RCA.....I guess I was so tired originally I didn't notice I used a Motorola adapter---which looks like a BNC-RCA but longer.......I switched to the correct adapter and the picture is darn near perfect from over 100 feet away....grainy picture is virtually gone. I did move both receiver and transmitter a tad but not much. Still, won't shoot through my 1 wall (cement siding/plywood/fiberglass insulation/drywall) at this distance so I won't give it 4 stars---if it did I'd bump it up. Highly suggest Nyrius think of engineering a port for an external antenna....so those of us using these outdoors/between buildings can use a remote antenna. :) -Verified Store
