A 2-way radio for a baby monitor?

Brian

So I was thinking.... instead of buying a baby monitor from babies r us or somewhere for $50, which we would use for a while then it will have no purpose, I thought about buying a 2-way radio for about $50 from radioshack since it will have a purpose after we are done using it in the baby room.

I always wanted one and we can get a good 10 mile range one for the same price as the baby monitor. I can just hold down the button on the receiver in the baby room with a rubber band or ziptie or somthing.

Will that work you think?

Im also thinking about getting a seperate video system.

Answer
Baby monitor units generally plug in, while the radios will go through a lot of batteries. That will probably eat up your savings.

They usually don't get worn out, so you can check a resale shop, garage sale or Craigslist for gently used ones.
