MHCABSRWireless Backup Reversing Camera, WiFi Dashboard Camera Work with Phone IP68 Waterproof IR Night Vision Wide Angle Magnetic Rear View Parking Camera for Trailers Trucks RVs

This is the best thing I bought lately. I love the quality. The night vision is fantastic. It mounts on metal because of its STRONG magnet. I use it for my horse trailer and I can always keep an eye on them. Plus how fun is that to glance over and see your horse enjoying the ride. It can tilt to see the best angle. The size is small but big enough for what it need inside (electronics). It can easily connect to your phone with Bluetooth AND wifi. You don't need wifi connections with a router. You just need to go into the wifi setting and connect to the camera. You'll need to download the app. It's easy to use. Once you're out if range it will disconnect. This isn't something to use when you leave completely. Just something you are trying to monitor or see like backing up to hook up a trailer, view something nearby. I recently drove many many hours where the camera lasted from 7am to 3pm. At that point, I was nearly at my destination. That's a LONG day though. It charges up quick enough to charge overnight.

First off, I need to say that I’ve not been able to use this for it’s intended purpose as my new caravan hasn’t yet arrived. However, I have set the camera up and just wandered around with it held in my hand and have to say, it’s really good! I downloaded the correct app from the apple store for iOS and once installed, switched the camera on and image was straight on the phone screen which is great for a technophobe like me!I knew already that my rear panel on the caravan is ABS plastic so purchased a set of four, rectangular, self adhesive metal magnetic mounts to fix to the rear of the van. Loads on here if you do a search. What I wasn’t prepared for, was the tail gate on my Audi A6 avant, is non magnetic? It’s aluminium so the ‘extra’ mounts I purchased are going to come in really handy for mounting the camera to the rear of the car for hitching up the van.When arriving on site or putting the caravan back on the driveway, the camera can be placed on the rear of the caravan to assist in reversing onto the pitch or drive. I’m not sure that I would want to leave the camera attached whilst towing, although it really grips to the metal plates, so much so, that the camera needs to be slid off the plate rather than pulled off! The magnets are that good 👍Perhaps some sort of secondary tether could be created in case the camera did blow off whilst vehicle was in motion. Guide lines show on the phone screen to assist in positioning but they don’t adjust for length or width but they can be switched off if required. Images can be captured too and stored on the phone.A point to consider, questions have been asked about replacement USB power leads for charging the camera? It uses a barrel type plug with normal USB at the charger end. I purchased a universal mains charger kit very cheaply off here which had a few barrel type connectors, selected one adapter that fitted and used that to charge rather than the supplied cable. Not going to be an issue there then and the charger might come in handy elsewhere for the myriad of USB connections that we seem to have these days! Range of the camera seems really good, I mounted on the roof of the car (steel) to initially test this and continued walking away from the car. Didn’t lose the image on my phone even at approximately 40 metres which is amazing! I accept I had clear line of sight between phone and camera but image quality was great and I cannot envisage any issues. I also tried it in the house on different floors and again, good solid connection. All in all, a very neat solution for me, no cabling required for either the car or the caravan, very quick and simple to set up and connect which is very good. The self adhesive plates (not supplied as part of the camera kit) can easily be removed at a later date with no drilling or screwing to the vehicle or caravan. This model is also the newest updated version of this camera and looks very good quality. I’m happy, or I will be when I finally get my new caravan delivered so I can use it for its intended purchase.

I bought this for reversing a caravan, seems ok but was concerned about wifi strength inside the tow vehicle.I solved that problem by using a wifi repeater (have a small inverter in the caravan boot so connected the repeater to the inverter on a short extension lead at the front of the caravan. Problem solved!

Works well for multiple uses. Helpful for backing Off Grid Trailer, especially in determining distance. Easy connection with iPhone using camera app. First camera failed, but seller was very helpful and prompt in replacing camera with a new one. Excellent customer service.
