XO Vision HTC36 Universal HD Weatherproof Rear View Car Backup Camera with Night Vision,Black

Great camera. Installed nicely on the back of my RV camper. I use it as a rear view mirror camera for when I am towing our RV. I highly recommend this. I can now see if vehicles are traveling behind me and can easily see if vehicles in adjacent lanes are actually behind or next to me. It makes changing lanes much easier. Whenever we drive the camper, we have this camera running on my dash the entire time.To do this, I bought this camera and then mounted it to an old license plate. I cut a circle in it by tracing around the camera and then pounding nails into it to create holes until it the piece of metal from the license plate broke off. I then painted the plate white to blend in with the spare tire I planned to attach it to. The camera was very convenient to mount this way and included several spacers that even let me adjust the angle of the camera.Normally you connect the camera to your brake lights to get power. In my case, I ran a power cable ( 25 Feet Pre-made All-in-One BNC Video and Power Extension Cable with Connector for CCTV Security Camera (White, 25 feet) ) with built in video inside the vehicle. I then spliced the cable with a cigarette lighter. The cigarette lighter supplies 12V to this camera and this also to the display I bought. If I want to use the camera, I plug it into the cigarette lighter and put the display on my dashboard and everything powers up and work. I attached photos to show the image on the display. This is the display I used:  UthCracy 5 Inch TFT LCD Car Color Rear View Monitor Parking Backup Camera DVD + 2 Bracket . In the photos, you will notice backup lines added. I believe these come from the display and not the camera. in my situation I don't need them, but they are fine. Since this display is meant for a backup camera, it flips the image horizontally so what you see on your right on the display is actually what's on the right side of your vehicle (as you face forward driving).If anyone is interested in using this as an RV camera, I recommend buying power/BNC video cables and running them separately under your truck and RV. Then connect them whenever you are towing them. When not in use, you can store them somehow. I adapted this box which worked out nicely:  uxcell IP65 Waterproof Outdoor 2 Way PG9 Gland Electrical Junction Box Black . I posted photos of that setup in that product review. It took a bit of work to get it all setup, but it is so worth it. Towing the RV is much easier and my wife is even comfortable driving with our camper in tow thanks to the camera making it easier to see what's going on around you.

Resolution isn't amazing, but it's functional. Night vision isn't amazing, but mine still works after 6 months unlike other purchasers. IR emitters need to be more powerful though.Biggest issue is now my guidance lines are shifting to one side of the image (see picture). Is there any way to turn this off?

I purchased one of these about a year or so past, still works. Great night vision.

I installed the camera and less than one week later, the camera itself broke away from the housing. Therefore, the image on the screen is constantly shifting. I took it out and am replacing with a higher quality / more expensive camera.The mounting kit is very cheap which is expected from a <$25 camera.I would not recommend this camera.

Pic was clear and looked great during the day. Night time pic had some halo'ing, which I also have on my previous license plate camera. Possibly a reflection off the lens from internal IR leds.It's hard to see, but the shaft of the camera has a ring that is cut in half at an angle. This allows you to leave as is (no angle) or rotate the rings creating an offset and adjust the angle the camera points. Overall a great buy for the money.

excelente

This was a replacement purchase for a camera that had failed. Previous camera failed about 18 months after installation which was not unexpected. I hope this one lasts as long and a replacement is vailable when needed.

it says compact size and in one of the pictures shows it on a vehicle barely noticable. Well thats not accurate, I thought compact, no its big. really big. also the night vision sensor went out after 3 days. I would not buy this again. works in the day time. not at night

Everything as advertised. Quick delivery

Didn't last more that 6 or 7 months definitely not weather proof

poor quality night vision good in the day
