Karen’s pro tips to get the most out of your Tweetycam battery
These tips from Tweetycam’s creator and mum of two, Karen, will help you maximise the battery life of your Tweetycam monitor:

• Dim that brightness
  Just like your smartphone, your monitor’s screen brightness can be a battery drainer. By keeping it down a notch, you can enjoy up to 12 hours of monitoring time.

• Activate VOX mode
  When silence reigns the screen goes black, and the moment there’s a peep from your baby the screen comes back to life. VOX mode keeps you connected for over 12 hours by activating the monitor only when it is needed most.

• Blackout by choice
  Give your screen a break by manually turning it black with a light tap of the ON/OFF button. But here’s the cool part; even when the screen is black the sound remains active, so you can still hear your baby and know when you need to check in. This is a great alternative to VOX mode if you have multiple cameras connected to the monitor.
