Infant OpticsDXR-8 PRO Rechargeable Battery (NOT Compatible with DXR-8), Silver

I'm very happy with the Infant Optics baby monitor I have, and I'm thrilled that they sell the battery for it separately like this. My monitor has been working great for almost 5 years now but a few months ago the battery was showing problems and definitely needed to be replaced. I called their customer service and they directed me to this battery so I purchased it. It arrived quickly and it was very easy to install. My monitor is back to 100% functional again! I'm very happy that I could buy an affordable battery replacement rather than having to trash the whole monitor, when that wouldn't have been necessary, but some items seem designed for limited use so you'll buy more.I'd definitely recommend Infant Optics for all the reasons: good monitor, good customer service, easy to buy battery, easy to install and works great!

Worked great and was compatible with the infant optics DXR-8 pro. However, it’s November 19th and I’m back here to buy another one because the one I bought on June 2nd is already not holding a charge. This is incredibly disappointing, and should not be happening. The batteries are not expensive, but it adds up when you have to replace it every 6 months, not to mention the waste it causes. Very disappointing.UPDATE: it turned out that it was the monitor that was dying, and not the battery. I ordered a ready stand alone monitor to pair with my camera and now all is well. Battery is working great. Now I have a back up, since the one from June is still good too! Thanks

I was skeptical about this purchase after the hit or miss reviews. I was also surprised the actual infant optics brand battery was cheaper than a knock-off. We’ve had this for a few weeks now and it’s 100x better than the old battery. Holds a charge, doesn’t make static noises anymore, and fits great. We’ve used the Infant Optics monitors and cameras for the last 6 years with no issues. Really good investment and beats paying over $100 for a new monitor.

Our monitor was not holding a charge and was buzzing really loudly when not on the charger. Replacing the battery completely fixed both issues.

Can’t quite yet say if this thing was worth the price. Bought it to replace the original battery in our monitor. The original lasted around 18 months before it would lose charge quickly. It was extremely easy to switch the batteries out. We’ll see how long this one lasts!

Edit: I first charged it with the USB cable I also bought off Amazon. It must be going bad because once I fully charged it with the manufacturer charger the monitor came with, it stays charged! Finally!Have had my monitor for a little over 2 years. The past few months it has lost its charge and I have to keep it plugged in. Decided to buy this new battery to replace the old on. The first time I put it in, it was only 50% charged. No biggie, I’ll plug it in and charge it. Got it all charged and as soon as I unplugged it, it lost a bar in minutes. Very disappointed and will probably return.

Not sure why this is considered a frequently returned item. I bet it's because of people not ordering the correct battery for their infant optics system. Our battery stopped working after a few years so I ordered this one for the DRX8-PRO. I installed the new one and it immediately allowed for the monitor to turn on and shows charging when I plug the power cord in. Easy fix.
