AUTO-VOX Wireless Backup Camera Solar Magnetic: 1-Min DIY Install, 5" 1080P HD Dual Channel Monitor, Protective Carry Case,Stable Signal,IP69 Waterproof Back Up Systems Camera for Truck,Car,Trailer

I have used Auto-Vox products for several years and been very happy with their performance and durability. This current 5" 1080p offering provides some clear improvements over their earlier models. Mounting and setup is simple and fast and doesn't require special skills or tools. The strong magnetic mount on the camera, which has a rubber layer to protect the car from scratches, is very secure. (Two different steel mounting plates and screws are also included if the magnetic solution doesn't work for your vehicle.) The display image is very clear and bright (daytime: color, nighttime: B&W) and is rapidly refreshed. A second solar-powered camera (not currently available) can be added if you wish to have two views.The display is powered by a cigarette-lighter adapter that also contains a USB-C port and an on-off button to actuate the display for 1-2 mins. The display goes on automatically only when the vehicle starts. It would be a nice option if it could plug into a USB port directly instead. The camera's solar battery stays charged for a very long time if the vehicle is left unused and away from sunlight for a long time. Just in case, Auto-Vox includes a USB-C charging cable for an external emergency charge boost. All of the components are manufactured well and should last well when exposed to the elements. I highly recommend this product.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:I'm happy to share my experience with this backup wireless camera, which has changed the way I use a rearview camera in my vehicle. This innovative device has addressed several critical pain points that made traditional backup cameras a hassle.Key Benefits:Wireless Convenience: No more tedious and risky video wire routing process! This camera is completely wireless, making it a breeze to install, even for those who aren't car experts.Solar Powered: Say goodbye to worrying about power wire connections to the cigarette outlet. The solar-powered design ensures that the camera stays charged and ready to go.HD Video Quality: The image quality is impressive, comparable to OEM backup camera standards. You'll enjoy clear and crisp visuals, giving you confidence when reversing.Magnetic mount: you can put it on anywhere in second without worrying about mounting screws or adapters. There is also a soft rubber liner between the magnet and your car, so no worry about scratching the paint MicroSD card: support video recording during backup. (there is even a short video clip of the factory QC team testing the device)Large battery capacity: long video streaming without worrying about low battery Additional Features: Negligible video lag for real-time monitoringLarge field of view for enhanced safetyMinor Initially I really worry about losing the camera with only magnetic mount, but the super easy installation eliminates the concern by easily removing the camera if you worry about that. Overall, I highly recommend this wireless backup camera to anyone looking for a convenient and high-quality solution. I have the 5" screen license plate version camera as a front view camera during parking my full size SUV. I found this 7" version offers very flexible solution for trailers

Great camera and display. Works as it should, and seems to be well built. I only left 4 stars because I can't seem to be able to buy just 1 additional camera (to use the other available channel). The intention is to leave a camera on two different trailers and use one receiver in the truck cab. I welded the mounting plate the the rear bumper, it looks like it was born to be there!

This is the second camera I’ve purchased from Auto-Vox for towing my camper. My previous camera worked well (and still does), but it wasn’t designed to be mounted behind a tow vehicle. As a result, I was pushing it beyond its intended use. That led to occasional buffering and compression artifacts on the display.This new model solves all of those issues—and then some.Installation is a breeze. You mount the included plate, and the camera snaps onto it magnetically. The magnets are extremely strong, but for added security, you can use the included socket head cap screw to lock it in place. There's a USB-C charging port under a waterproof cover and a simple on/off switch beside it, accessible from the bottom of the camera. I charged it once via USB at the start and haven’t needed to since.The screen is excellent and comes with a 6-foot cable that plugs into your car’s 12V socket. Once powered, it automatically wakes the camera and starts the live feed. The image has a slight fisheye effect, which actually helps by widening the field of view behind the trailer. The display allows you to adjust brightness, guide lines, image orientation, and screen timeout settings.By default, the screen is set to turn off the camera after about two minutes, but I immediately changed that to stay on continuously—I use it as a rear-view camera, not just a backup cam. The manual warns that this mode may drain the battery faster, but in my experience, that hasn’t been an issue. During my longest test—a four-hour daytime drive—the battery still showed 3 out of 4 bars. Because it’s solar-powered, it’s constantly recharging. In fact, mine even showed it was charging indoors under regular lighting. The manual claims it can operate for 45 days without solar, though that seems optimistic. Still, the next time I used it, it was fully charged and ready to go.One feature I’d like to see is an option to hardwire the camera, but Auto-Vox offers other models for that purpose. The benefit of this one is portability—if your camper goes into storage, you can remove the camera in under 30 seconds for safekeeping.In conclusion, this camera is an excellent value. It delivers a clear, stable image from the back of my trailer (40–50 feet away) to the display in my vehicle, with no noticeable interference. I’m very satisfied with this purchase.
