Backup Camera for Fifth Wheel


Chalkie

Recommended Posts

I have been looking at backup cameras for several months now. There is quite a few out there. I have not good experiences with wireless models. For example, I had one that showed that traffic camera image every time I was stopped at an intersection. That was only amusing for a while.

 

I keep coming back to this model as it easily disconnects from the fiver when.

I was wondering if anyone here has any experience with this brand and or model. Or, if I am overlooking some better solutions.

 

Thanks!

I have a Review Safety cameras on our 5th wheel. I installed this system http://www.rearviewsafety.com/products/camera-systems/three-camera-system-with-quick-connect-disconnect-cable-model-rvs-770616-2133.html and it has worked very well indeed with never problem. I keep the volume turned all the way down on the monitor unless needed because I find the occasional interference (white noise) distracting.

I also installed a small license plate style camera on my tool box that points at the hitch and inputs to our Garmin GPS. It's my favorite camera and makes hitching up a piece of cake.

PS Got that camera from RVS too.

I got mine from a John Deere dealer there are several options for monitors they are very durable and the connections are easy to take apart yet secure

Check out leviathan_holdings (6459 ) on E-bay. He has a multitude of cameras and monitors. I just installed the 10" monitor and 4 camera system with the trailer disconnect

Little pricey but I only want to pull the wires once..

I use a Voyager 4 camera system. Several options but you can use camera 1 for the main rear view and cameras 2 and 3 as smaller "insert" images on that screen for three views of the fifth wheel. Camera 4 is mounted high on the truck to use when hooking the fifth wheel up, I also have a low camera at the receiver hitch if needed that displays on the GPS/radio.
