Choosing the best wireless intercom system for your home, office, school, or business.

wireless intercomCommunications have come a long way because of technology. Nowadays, many home, offices, schools, and businesses are equipped with wireless intercom systems that help the people inside to communicate better. Although many of these establishments still use wired intercom system, wireless intercom systems are increasing in popularity because of the many benefits that they provide.

Wireless intercom systems are so much easier to install than the traditional wired intercom systems. There is no need to connect any of the units with wires and you can easily transfer one unit from one area to another.

To help you choose the best wireless intercom system for your home, office, school, or business, below are some things that you need to consider.

Frequency. Different wireless intercom systems use different frequencies. In the United States, there are several frequency ranges available but the most commonly used are 49MHz, 900MHz, and 2.4GHz. Very few wireless intercom systems use 49MHz because these are short range frequencies and are often used by cordless telephones and baby monitors. Since they are often picked up by other wireless devices, wireless intercom systems that use this frequency often get interference. Some wireless intercom systems use 900MHz frequency and they often use analog transmission technology. For those who prefer their intercom system to have video capabilities, the 2.4GHz frequency is often used. However, the 2.4GHz frequency is often used by WiFi networks so you can expect interference from products that use WiFi.

Range. The range of your wireless intercom system depends on its frequency. A relatively new frequency range in the wireless intercom system market is the Multi-Use Radio Service or MURS. MURS uses VHF or very high frequencies and wireless intercom systems that use it can be used even in expansive areas such as between buildings or homes. You can even add an antenna to boost your transmitter. MURS intercom systems can transmit up to four miles or more with an external antenna.

Security. How do you plan to use your wireless intercom system? If your priority is privacy, make sure that your wireless intercom system is not susceptible to interference. Also, some frequency ranges like those using 900MHz make it easy for other devices in the same frequency to listen in on conversations.

Features. Check for other features that you want in your wireless intercom system such as a PA system and a bell system. You may also want to get an intercom system that has an outdoor unit that is water resistant and specifically designed for outdoor use. Other features that you can find are wireless remote switches, motion detectors, solar power option, and many more.

Cost. You can get a basic two channel wireless intercom system for as little as $60 while more sophisticated ones can go up to as much as $700. The price range of wireless intercom systems is very wide so make sure that you identify the features and specifications that you want before making any purchase. If you are on a limited budget, choose a basic wireless internet system that will allow you to purchase other add-on features later.

Hideaway Storage Ideas

Posted by admin On October - 19 - 2011 0 Comment

I have been thinking of getting digital antennas for our house since we do not get a lot of signal for our cellphones, cable or even wifi internet. A lot of stuff has in my mind as well because of too much clutter in my house. I think I need to try these hideaway storage ideas:


You’d be amazed at how much wasted space lies underneath a staircase. Make the most of it with these pull-out closets.


Store your clothes under the bed and even under the floorboards.


No extra room for an office? No problem. Turn a closet into an office.


You can’t really hide it away, but you might not know it’s there unless you look up!

If you are looking into cutesy bedroom themes for your kids, I saw three models online and would be sharing them to you. I know that there are life insurance types I need to study and look at but these are just too cute not to blog about! I would definitely love a themed room when I have babies in the future.

Which one is your favorite?
Mine’s the Cinderella-themed room the best, of course :)

I was looking for a steel drum to buy to save some water rain. It is rainy season where I live and it has been raining 4 out of the 7 days and we are big on conserving energy and recycling and saving water so using rainwater to clean the bathroom and the garage will be a big help.

How to Pay off Debt and Save at the Time.

Posted by admin On October - 10 - 2011 0 Comment

We all go through this phase one time or another. We are up to our ears in debt and yet we want to save money because our emergency funds are zero. Financial advisors say that we should have at least six months worth of living expenses as an emergency cushion. This is on top of the investments we are advised to have.

You panic and think about what you can do.

Relax. A lot of people are in your situation. What you need to do is face up to the matters at hand and set up a plan of action. The time to do that is right now. With a little self-discipline and some faith in yourself, your financial picture can potentially change for the better in about six months.

Before you immerse yourself in learning more about stock options trading and invest on it, there is one simple step you need to do – you need to track your spending and keep your credit card applications to a minimum if you already have business credit cards to begin with.

A three way strategy of cash-flow control, saving, and debt reduction can help you begin to take control of your situation and feel more optimistic about your financial future. Once your debts are paid off, you’ll be ready to start investing.

I read from an article that you can set up three bank accounts – one for your cushion savings (emergency), investment (savings), and living expenses. As much as possible, keep the amount in your living expenses the exact amount you usually spend in a month (That’s why you need to track your spending).  For your emergency savings account, if your goal is to have three months’ living expenses, you could reach your goal in 30 months by saving 10% of each month’s pay or in 15 months by saving 20%.

Pay off the credit card with the highest debt and interest rate first. Paying just a little more than the minimum can make a big difference.Consolidate your debt by transferring outstanding balances to lower-rate cards, like citibank credit cards. Cancel your old cards so you won’t be tempted to use them again. The most you need is two. And leave them at home unless you really need them.
