Description

About the battery powered digital wireless reversing / rear view camera kit with 5 inch monitor for trailers/caravans/vans

We kept getting asked by customers if they could use a battery to temporarily mount a wireless camera to a trailer etc. We chose our most popular wireless kit and had the factory modify the wiring, attach magnets to the bottom bracket, and produce an IP66 waterproof 12500mAh magnetic battery.  The manufacturer says to expect between 12-14.2 hours operating time, we found at 20C it worked for 14.5 hours.  Time can vary depending on temperature and how it's been cared for eg. not storing at low battery state etc.

Due to the magnetic base of the camera being plain metal, this may scratch a painted metal surface when taking the camera on/off.  During testing we added some clear gorilla crystal clear tape to the area we planned to mount the camera, this prevented any scratches to the paintwork underneath (test the magnetic attraction is still secure before heading off).  The magnetic base of the battery has a protective material which shouldn't be a concern for scratching.

We see this being popular with forklift machinery, people who use various vehicles without cameras fitted, camera for hitching up (hitchcam), an easy fit camera for a caravan (if a metallic plate is bonded to the caravan to allow the camera to mount to), a temporary trailer camera, and many more uses...

Please note that we can not send this overseas due to courier restrictions.

Digital Wireless Vs Older Analogue Wireless

This wireless reversing camera kit uses digital wireless technology, which is significantly better than the older analogue wireless (which is somehow still about today).  Below is some information about the differences: 

  • Wireless reversing camera systems are still carrying a bad reputation, due to the original analogue technology.  This older technology was so bad that we only stocked links that we marketed to cross the gap from the gas locker of a caravan, to a car boot.  
  • The older analogue models were restricted in the UK and European market to just 10mW of power due to the "dirty" signals they produced.  This would have interrupted other networks had they allowed a stronger signal.  The new digital wireless technology uses 10 times this, transmitting at 100mW.
  • The older analogue wireless used to provide plenty of static interference to the picture, and we would hear many stories of people driving along, only to suddenly see the view from someone's CCTV camera, and even the odd horse - whilst passing a horse box trailer.  The new digital wireless technology never has any static, or picture from elsewhere.  The transmitter and receiver pair together and use encryption, to ensure that the receiver ignores any other interference that is present.

2 Year Guarantee

We supply with a 2 year Guarantee with us, meaning we will repair or replace any non-user damaged parts that are deemed faulty.  Our failure rate is very low even beyond these two years, if you have a problem outside of 2 years we should still have compatible parts and possible repairs for reasonable amounts.


Parts Tested in the UK

The parts of this kit will have been tested twice, once by the factory and once by us.  We check all the items in the kit including all wiring, digital links, trigger wires, IR leds and menu functions to reduce any chance of having a non working part.  Our fault rate is extremely low, and we just like to ensure that we avoid any imperfection slipping past.  This is why professional fitters love us.  

Testimonial

The following email testimonial was received.  We swapped out the monitor in the kit, for a rear view mirror type.  But the signal/camera/battery are the same, so we have included it below.  Please note that the price would be increased by £20 if you wish to upgrade to the mirror screen (with receiver box), like this customer did:

FAQ'S

Absolutely!  The majority of people set it up this way.  Our main customers for wireless kits are caravan owners.  As a previous caravan owner myself, I found using one of our digital wireless kits made driving whilst towing so much easier.  The camera gave me confidence when changing lanes, allowed me to be aware of drivers "tucked in" behind me, and allowed me to reverse back with ease when taking wrong turns.

We have yet to be defeated by a rig that has been too big for our digital wireless systems.  We used to use a 40M system previously, and this was more than capable, our base level uses 60M spec chips, which is ample.

The manufacturer says to expect between 12-14.2 hours operating time, we found at 20C it worked for 14.5 hours. Time can vary depending on temperature and how it's been cared for eg. not storing at low battery state etc.
