The camera comes a wall mount, but for my purposes I didn't want my views obstructed by the sides of the cage, so I moved the camera onto her igloo.
The cage has a wheel, igloo, t-shirt, and a heat lamp, plus food and water dishes. She usually sleeps in the shirt or igloo, and runs on her wheel at night. I wanted the camera trained on the wheel for the best pictures.
The monitor gives some information useful to both human parents and hedgehog owners. I like that I can see the temperature inside the cage, although the camera was really close to the heat lamp, so its probably a little higher than the actual temperature.
Despite her tiny legs, she runs really fast. Almost every picture I tried to take ended with her legs in a blur.
Final thoughts
I definitely don't need a baby monitor, but I really liked this one. The night vision worked well, with a clear view in a totally dark room.
Remote steering was also useful, and I was able to pan around and see whatever she was doing. Other features, like talking into the microphone and playing lullabies, weren't right for my purposes, but I could see them being great for any actual baby.
Overall, I'm a fan! If you're in the market for a baby monitor, it's worth taking a chance on a "smart" one.
