Review: VERY Impressed! - HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Honestly I had my
doubts with only 14 reviews and figured I could return it free
with Prime if this camera didn’t live up to my expectations but
after trying it out today, I must say that I’m really impressed.
There are so many pros to this system that I couldn’t give it
anything but 5 stars. PROS: 1. Ease of setup/use - powered on the
camera (it came fully charged), plugged in the monitor and it was
up and running, no pairing, easy menu options, although the menu
buttons on the side of the monitor would be easier to operate
than on the back. There is a one touch button for the park
distance lines which is nice but again it’s on the back so you
either have to feel where it is or take the monitor off the mount
to push. 2. Range - Holy cow it’s impressive! I have a 400+ foot
driveway. Had the monitor inside the external garage and put the
camera out by the mailbox. Picture was as clear as it was at 1
foot. I then put the camera inside my attached garage on the
bumper of one of my cars which is probably 250 feet from the
monitor going thru multiple cars, closed garage doors and walls
and it worked great. Like I said impressive! 3. Magnet mount
strength - again another impressive feature, this will not come
off without a significant pull. 4. Picture Quality - see attached
photo which just like the above pros, very impressive,
colors/contrast are sharp and can be adjusted on the monitor if
desired. Night vision- I put the camera in a 100% pitch black
closet that has no light and the IR night vision picked
everything up with surprisingly no granularity. 5.
Construction/build of the system - the camera is very sturdy and
well built. The monitor seemed light in weight (my iPhone is
heavier) but works fine and since this is the inside piece, it
should hold up. All the mounting brackets/plugs seem adequate.
There is a slight design flaw with the camera angle adjustment.
When the antenna is mounted the camera cannot be adjusted to to
its flat 180 degree angle setting - think of this viewing angle
as a parallel plane to the road which is what you want unless
your viewing the tow hitch, this is due to the too shallow cutout
in the case (see my attached pictures). Now your saying why would
this be important? Mounting the camera horizontally on the truck
tailgate and not being able adjust the camera to its full 180
degree position, the lens will be pointed 10-15 degrees down not
allowing you to view an open trailer behind you or if mounted on
the trailer horizontally, the road behind the trailer will not be
fully viewable as the lens will be facing slightly downward
looking at the pavement vice the cars. This issue can be overcome
a number of ways by mounting the camera vertically, getting a
different style antenna (rope) OR don’t use the antenna at all. I
put the camera on the tailgate of my truck without the antenna in
it, had the antenna on the monitor and it worked fine. 6. Camera
runtime - now I haven’t tested this yet but I emailed the
manufacturer prior to buying and received a very prompt reply
stating the camera has a 18 hour daylight/9 hour night vision
runtime. This seems on par with the 9600 mah battery they use and
far exceeds any competitors claims. This makes this camera
perfect for those who want to attach the camera to the back of
their truck or trailer and see the traffic behind for the length
of a normal drive and then recharge. 7. Value - compared to the
competition, this system cannot be beat period, do your own
research if you need more convincing. CONS: None really, a few
inconveniences. Yes the buttons located on the back of the
monitor and the inability to have the camera look a flat 180
degrees (see my attached pictures) with the antenna attached are
design issues that can be overcome. Maybe the manufacturer will
read this and correct on the next model. OVERALL: This a a GREAT
system that IMO is tremendous value for your dollar. I hope this
review addresses some of the questions you might have prior to
buying. The 14 previous reviews had this at 5*s and you should
believe the hype. It’s really that good!
Review: Real World Followup Ratings after Weeks of Usage -
Outstanding Performance. I originally wanted this for my long dog
trailer I tow when rescuing labrador retrievers in various
cities/states. I used it at first for Backup--and it's
great---but let me tell you more. I wanted it for "real time"
look at my back end when on 6 lanes in heavy traffic in San
Antonio, Austin and other busy traffic scenarios so I could make
safer lane changes and see gaps. And it worked great for that.
The latest? I can carry up to 10 dogs. And I want to ensure
they're doing well. So I tried this inside my dog trailer so I
could get visuals of them while we're rolling. (Oh, I have air
quality and temp gauges and two a/c, heater units as well), but I
now can see them. So lets be clear--STRONG magnet--excellent
camera with long charge life...Excellent Receiver screen (which
can support two cameras)....and all the wiring needed to power.
The Units wifi--gives great power--and by that--great coverage
EVEN INSIDE MY TRAILER BACK TO MY TOW VEHICLE. So, I've mounted
low bumper, high top of rear, inside the trailer with the simple
addition of an desertcart magnetic stainless steel plate. Very
affordable. What you get is better than I expected. Top notch
product and top notch seller who I've had one question I needed
some info on.
