The product, in the report: Owlet Camera FCC ID: 2AIEP-OC1A
I purchased an Owlet Baby Monitor Camera. It came with a wall-mount and screw to attach it to the wall. As I was screwing it into the wall, the crew broke in half leaving half of the screw in my wall and the other half attached to the base which fell off in my hand. If the screw was weakened instead of breaking completely, the camera, which is heavy and positioned above the crib, could have fallen on the baby causing injury. Thankfully, everybody is ok.

The product, in the report: Owlet baby monitor
Purchased owlet baby monitor and mounted it 3 feet above baby’s crib and covered exposed cord with provided cover and tape. A day later I saw the cord cover not sticking to the wall and completely exposing the camera cord. While trying to reattach the cord with slight tugging, the camera fell off the mount and almost hit me. Had my baby been in the crib, he could have been severely injured. I contacted owlet and they are standing by their product claiming it has been tested, the tape isn’t the issue and that I just have it attached incorrectly. I scrolled through their comments and saw I am not the only customer having the same issue. Their instructions state to mount camera 3 feet above crib, but if the tape doesn’t hold the cord cover, then the child has access to an exposed cord. The child can easily injure themself and/or suffocate. I asked for better tape, but they do not have any solution.
