Harbor Freight Camera System as Backup Camera

Harbor Freight sells a security camera system for $79 . It is a 110 volt, but really runs on 12 vt.

It looks like a nice enough package .... IF IT LASTS !
Most of the things I have bought there ... I have taken back , so if anyone has used this in their RV as a backup camera, I would be very interested in the results.

Thanks ... Richard

You can probably get the chinese piece of junk on fleabay for $8.00.

I told my wife the next time I try to go to HF just beat me over the head with a bat.

The lure of a cheap price is hard to resist.

I suspect a $79 camera will perform, and last, like a $79 camera. Basic Chinese junk.

Of course, I suppose if you got a year out of it, you couldn't complain.
