IBall Hitch Camera - Anyone using one?
Backing trailer onto hitch is always a two person job. I did put a little backup eye in the handle on my tailgate. It will get my close to lining up but not close enough without me jumping in and out...

I purchased the iBall camera a couple of weeks ago. I have it mounted (with a zip tie) to the back bumper of the TT right now. It works great as a rear view/backup camera. It has a fish eye lens so that takes a little getting used to as far as judging distance but, I can see the front of passing cars until they get past the TT rear bumper. This past weekend the battery on the camera (9v) died in the middle of the trip. We had a spare so no problem but, now I'm looking into wiring it into a 12v power source from the TV via the 7 pin connector and using a step down circuit to reduce it to 9v. This way it will only be powered up when I connect the TV to the TT. No drain on the TT battery if I forget to turn it off.
