WiFi Monitors for interior of camper

On only a couple occasions have we EVER left our dogs in the camper. When we do, we call each other on our cell phones and get a channel open. Then we leave one phone in the camper and take the other with us.

This way, we can really hear how distressed the dogs get and how much they really bark.

We discovered they don't bark (much), but occasionally. And we discovered they are pretty calm when we are gone.

We've only done this twice, in maybe 20 years of camping. But if we ever have to leave them alone in the camper again, this is what we'll do ... again.

If something were to happen and we needed the phone with us to make a call, the open line to the trailer can either go on hold, or it can be hung up from the one with us, freeing up to make a call if needed.

We don't leave our dog alone very often either and when we do it's only for a couple of house. We do not monitor when gone. She isn't a barker and in 8 yrs have never had anyone say they heard her bark (her breed is a quiet breed). As far a temperatures. It won't change much from what it was when we left within a couple hour period but we always leave either the furnace or a/c on set at a comfortable temperature.

When we went to NJ at Liberty Harbor I left my phone in the camper and connected my WiFi camera to it. I was able to watch the dog and look at the thermometer from
My wife’s phone. Worked great. But you have to have good cell service.

We use a temp stik that monitors temp and humidity as well as internet connection. When we are away I set it to check every 15 mins. While this gives us piece of mind on temp it does not give us video of Lucky and Lucie. We are going to get the Amazon cloud cam with four video cameras to go along with this. Three cameras will stay home using dsl connection and the other one will go in our fiver using the hot spot. I know when you are leaving on your next trip so you will have to move fast if you want anything by then.

The temp stick sends you a text and an email to your smart phone. It sells in the 130 to 150 dollar range.

Don’t forget to use a battery backup if electric goes off. This way you know if you lost signal or you lost power. Don’t ask me how I no this.

We had a Dlink camera for MIL monitoring. It worked well but should have had 2 way sound as well. It was complicated to set up with a Dlink account to handle the connections between camera, server and cell phone.

Hello Friend, is Temp Stik the Brand Name? Where did you find? Does it have a camera option?

No Bob it does not. It only monitors the temp, humidity and connection. I set my Verizon mi fi to never sleep so it always has a connection. But as far as monitoring the temp inside your mh it would do a fine job for that.

The above is the link. Data usage is negligible.

Hello. It’s a Kodak brand I got at Menards lastyear for Christmas. I use it at home in the house and then bring it with me when we need it. Has worked great. It doesn’t zoom but it does pan and tilt and has night vision. Haven’t had any issues with them, I ended up getting a second one. You can also talk and listen through it. And if needed can be used as a WiFi extender.
