HelloBaby HB6550 5-Inch Video Baby Monitor with Pan-Tilt Camera
One nursery where the camera can sit within about six feet of the cot
The HB6550 pairs a 5-inch IPS parent screen with a mains-powered pan-and-tilt camera on an encrypted 2.4GHz link, with no app or account. Its manual gives up to 165 ft indoors and up to 1000 ft outdoors line of sight, a 16-hour battery figure, and a temperature alarm with limits you set. It takes up to four cameras, but HelloBaby says a 2025 revision broke compatibility with earlier ones.

- Manual: temperature alarm with high and low limits, default 36C and 8C
- Manual: cord more than 3 ft from children; no extension cords; supplied adapters only

- Takes up to four cameras with add, delete and cycle-scan all documented
