Wireless backup camera suggestions for a 24-footer?

Here's the link to the one I purchased.... Swift Hitch I found mine on sale for 149.00 if I remember correctly. Works great. I've got a 28 ft TT (Skyline Layton Lakview) and I use it to not only hitch up, but put in on the TT bumper when backing into campsites. Had it a year now and other than a little static every once in a while, the pic is very clear and usable. I would recommend this unit to anyone. But then again, on a mh, there might be more items for interference than on a standard TT.

Just my 2 cents worth...... No Charge.... :B

A wireless unit needs to have no interference, I installed the camera inside at the top of the the rear window. It works fine. Used a remote on and off 12v switch so I can turn it off or on anytime from the driver seat. It takes little current, so I spliced it from a light.

I installed a digital Voyager backup camera from rvcams.com. Never have experienced any interference. Before I installed it I tested its range and was able to pick up the video signal half a block away. I used the center rear marker light for camera power, which means I have to turn on the lights to use it. The only downsides are its high cost and the fact that is it has limited vertical field of view. I can't simultaneously use it to view the traffic behind me and still see the trailer hitch ball - have to point it one way or the other.

Haven't had any trouble with mine but I have the transmitter and reviver only about 24 feet from each other with only one interior wood wall (base of the bed) between them. I also don't frequent RV parks with 50 other cameras around me. It works fine at my house about 30 feet from my wireless router.

tred0956, can you tell me where on the fuse box you connected the power (red) wire from the junction box? How did you do it? Thx

I installed a Rear View Safety unit I bought from Costo. I got the wired model for the same concerns you mention. Also, you still need to wire the camera/sending unit in to a power source. With the unit I got, there is only 1 cable (60 feet long) that goes from the camera to a junction box, which I installed in the cab. From there, there is a cable to the monitor and another set of wires for power, easily wired to the fuse box. I'm not sure a wireless model would be much easier to install, but Costco does sell one.

I purchased an iball wireless trailer hitch camera for use with our travel trailer and we continue to use it with our class C. It works as advertised. There is one issue. You can experience interference from other wireless devices so severe as to render it useless. This has happened to me occasionally while camping in very crowded parks. Otherwise it operates fine. I’ve attached photos from when I used it to hitch up our travel trailer. I never had any problems at our storage lot and it was a great tool for lining up the ball & hitch.
