I'm looking into some cameras for my truck and camper before I leave on my trip.
I'll let you know what products I decide.

I bought an inexpensive "Amtifo" camera/monitor from Amazon; wired the camera from that set into the back of our TT, but then added a second camera to the back of our popup truck camper. It paired right up with the monitor, and when wired to the running lights, gave us a nice clear color view of what was going on behind us.

The Furrion looks pretty good on paper, but it's expensive and made by a company that's known for not turning out anything good.

I have been running a Rear View Safety RVS-770613 wired system on my truck/camper for 5 years. Other than having to replace the 12v Plug in male plug last year it has been flawless.

They also make wireless systems.

Thanks for the review, I went ahead and grabbed one of these for $139, figure its cheap enough that if it doesn't work I am not out a ton of money. The TC is in winter storage but might just install it this weekend to test it out. The old voyager one never did work right and was a pain with the cord.

I actually have the Furrion Vision S 5" Markerlight Camera and I've had no problems with it in 2 yrs. I did get mine for a discount due to issues when the TC was first purchased. Since it's connected to the running lights it made for an easy install and I can have the camera on ALL the time.

For driving, I wanted a camera that would remain on full time (backup cams don’t do this), so I got a Voyager from here Rvcams.com
