Review on LeeKooLuu G2 RV Backup Camera System: 7 Inch Screen, AHD 2nd License Plate Camera, DIY Support for RVs, Trailers, Trucks, and More by Shigg Bigbee

I installed a camera system on a 1951 Willys 4x4 pickup truck. It replaced a short-lived system by another company that used RCA cables for its single camera. The LeeKooluu system is much better. For my installation I emailed and received a license plate camera in addition to the cube camera that came with the kit. The license plate camera is easy to install and has a colored rectangular grid that - in Willy's case at least - shows the exact distance between my bumper and where I don't want to hit it. This is a definite improvement over my side mirrors which don't really protrude far enough to see behind Willie, and an interior mirror in the cockpit that is completely blocked when I have trash cans in the back. I currently have the cube cam set up to look at the tablet, but I can set it up to watch my front 2" receiver while hooking up a trailer, log splitter, etc. Although I could use the cigarette provided. Cigarette lighter adapter to power the system with 12V, I just connected it to the toggle switch. It also seems set to turn on power through the backup switch that turns on the reverse lights on fancy new cars. When switched, the screen and cameras turn on within a second - and the display is bright. The cables are interconnected four-wire video cables. To my surprise, these cables are available in various lengths from Revain if I couldn't get them through LeeKooLuu, but they gave me way more than I needed. Each cable has 2 wires for video and 2 for power. Easy. The connectors are slotted so they can only be connected in one direction. The position of the spline is also marked on the outside with small arrows that I colored in with a pen. Double check which direction you want the wires to go as the ends are different and can be routed through the car before realizing the wires are going backwards and you have to pull them out and flip them. Before I install the rig in my truck. I tested everything with loose components. During this process I found which side of the dice chamber was "up" and labeled it with a Brother thermal label. If I turn the camera upside down, I could flip the image with a button on the display - but why take that extra step? Just determine which path is "Up" and label it. I also tagged the license plate camera. I also added some labels to the wires. Why not? The ends of the 4-wire cable are larger in diameter than their RCA predecessors, so I had to drill a 3/4-inch diameter hole to feed them through. never mind If I were hypersensitive I suppose I could cut the wires, thread them, and then solder them together, but I didn't. I also notice that the Cube camera connector comes with a rubber boot to keep the connection dry. I like it - and I might add some silicone to seal the connector if I can find a permanent place to mount it. (I was thinking of making a mobile camera out of it with magnetic mounts.) Attaching the display to the base of the car puzzled me for a few minutes, until I realized that the part the wing nut goes through is in two parts, separate - no. It needs to be disassembled to fit the round base it is meant to sit on. I have found that this assembly rotates up/down in two hinges (and in a circle) but does not tilt left/right. This was the only difficulty I encountered and it is minor. When I wrote LeekooLuu, they sent me another base that adjusts up/down and left/right when I was right about the up/down adjustments. It's free! Well, if those two mounting options weren't enough (and they were enough for me) then I noticed that there is a threaded hole at the bottom of the display, so you can presumably make a hairpin/lock net for another method of attachment. The display switches between camera #1 and #2 very easily with a light press of a button on the far right of the display. super easy.
