Our Summer's Infant monitor recently died after 18 months of use. Baby #2 is on the way and we need to replace this. We plan to get a zoom/pan/tilt this time. We decided to try the Motarola, but the battery life is terrible (it goes from having a full battery at 7p to being dead by 10p, and the majority of the time the screen is off). We also tried the Summer Baby Touch and liked the resolution a lot, but am hesitant of the brand since our first didn't last. We've begun looking at the Samsung SEW-3037W and Levana Kerra. Does anyone have experience with any of the above units and share your pros/cons? I am also wondering if our Motarola is just a dud and if we should try to just exchange it. TIA and sorry for the long post!

We have this Motorola:

We keep it plugged in at night when we sleep and when we're awake when DS is asleep at night or during naps, when the battery starts to run low, we just plug it in.
The video and sound are fantastic so that trumps a lower battery life (which I'm not even sure I would say it has) for us.
So yesterday our monitor was running unplugged for 5 hours and still had 2/3 battery life left. So it actually gets a lot more than I originally thought.
