Nice Job!!

Mike

That was a cool idea.

Daric,

I love this! I would like to do this on my 51. Could you tell us what brand, etc. is this so I can find it either on Amazon or elsewhere?

Thanks!!

Jeff

@jeffrey-salz - sure thing Jeff it can be found here: https://www.amazon.com/License-GreenYi-Wireless-Reverse-Android/dp/B06Y3TSWLK

@39master85 Thanks for the link. I did see this on Amazon but I didn't want the whole bar, just a small camera. I see hat you simple removed the electronis from the bracket and used that only. Great idea! I might just go ahead with this and try it.

Be sure to check the voltage required for each camera. All I found require greater than 6 volts. A small lawn mower 12 Volt battery can run the camera for days (maybe months) before requiring a recharge. A small battery charger can do the job in a few hours and the battery is small enough to move to a location where recharging is safe. I have ordered a camera for my cars that I take on VCCA tours. Most are six volt so I will use the small 12 volt battery that I use to power my trailer winch. I can do several pulls before a recharge is needed.

@chip - that is a really good idea to run it off of a separate local battery! I didn’t even think of that… This camera comes with two cords - a 5v USB or you can direct wire it to a 6v or 12v power supply. Dropping a dedicated small battery in the trunk would have saved me a lot of time drilling holes and running that dang wire under the carpet - hahaha
