cargo camera

Greetings All. Newbe toy hauler here. Looking for input for cargo cameras.

Thanks

Peace of mind would prompt me to have a camera inside the TH. I know how to tie down a full size motorcycle. However, after the trip we just finished, I would suggest that after hitting some of the stuff that Washington State DOT qualifies as acceptable road surface, an inside camera would be nice.

I don't understand why you wouldn't do both?

We bought a wireless camera and monitor from Tadibrothers for watching our horses in the trailer. we use the magnetic mount and tapped into the running lights for power. We use it in 2 different trailers and it is easy to move and we could use it as a rearview camera. It works great.

I decided to go with the Voyager with one camera mounted in the back for back up view and another camera mounted in the garage so I can monitor the toys. Both cameras will be powered by the running lights circuit so can be controlled from cab.
Thanx for your inputs

I purchased a Yada “Flex Mount Back-up Camera” from CostCo a year ago Christmas. It came with (1) monitor, (1) rechargeable camera, (2) mounts (one magnetic & one 7 pin to place in the trailer electrical plug) and several cables.

After I purchased it I learned the system was expandable to a 2nd remote camera. This 2nd camera is linked wirelessly to the monitor and had a choice of split screen or full screen from either camera.

When I’m not towing I use the magnetic mount on the truck as a rear view camera. I’ve wired this as to always be on unless I turn it off from inside the truck.

The 2nd remote camera I placed on the rear of the trailer for monitoring while towing. Because this unit is wireless and uses a re-chargeable battery I can leave it on full time on the road. I have also used this camera to mount inside the trailer and be used to watch what’s going on while towing. So I have two options for this camera. The 2nd camera cost me about $89.00 at Auto Zone.

The only complaint I have is at times the sun will glare out the camera causing the screen to go dark. This only happens once in a while.

Were you able to get a decent signal from the go pro to the cab of your truck

I tried a wireless hitching camera, but there was some interference, so the image was so-so. Then it dawned on me that I already had a GoPro with wifi, so I linked it to my phone & it worked great. I use a RAM mount, either the suction cup or the "tough claw" to anchor the camera to a smooth surface (counter top or fridge) or a cabinet handle. Power can be supplied via the 12V outlet near the TV.
