Works as described.

Before purchasing I contacted the company about some issues related to this camera. Within a few minutes I received a detailed answer. I have not received any response from other camera manufacturers. It was a gift for my husband and I wasn't sure if he would like it. Well he does! He even took whatever power adapter he had and hooked it up to a small motorcycle battery so he could hook up a monitor and use the camera anywhere he could take the battery with him. he has toys on trailers.

It can't even do the basic job it's designed for.

The only time I had anything remotely clear from the camera was when I had the camera with me in the cockpit. The second I carried it out of the cab and closed the door behind me, the image on the tube was snow-white, grainy, and often cropped. This camera doesn't even work as a rear camera, let alone anything else. Also, what I could see on my hitch when trying to use it to connect to my trailer was so bad that I simply had to cycle back in and out a few times to connect. Absolutely useless…

  • Great price

Works very well

I have had the previous version of the I-Ball for 6 years and it has always worked well. The camera would not turn on, so I immediately replaced it with this updated product. I use it to attach to my bumper by placing a magnetic camera on the tailgate. The camera rotates on the base, so you can adjust the camera to different angles. I also place it face down on the gooseneck trailer's outer hitch tube and am able to point the trailer accurately at the ball every time. I also place it in the…

Pros
  • Durable test results
Cons
  • Defective

Not suitable for car backup cameras

We bought this camera to watch our bikes in the back of our van. We tested it first on our truck and then on our van. The results were the same. When the car was parked the picture was adequate, not great. When the car was in motion, the image was constantly moving and distorting. We couldn't even make out the picture. It also didn't work for RV backup. As soon as we moved, the display was distorted and you couldn't see anything anymore. I didn't notice any Bluetooth interference issues as some

  • Cool product

Transmission strength Weak

Very disappointed! This design is very good. I was very excited to receive it. There seem to be few good options in this class. He hardly does half the work. The picture is constantly in poor reception condition. That's enough for the trailer hitch. However, I was planning on using it to support a trailer (12ft long) as well. Here it fails. The picture does not match this application. called support. They didn't care. They said it was only good up to 25 feet, unimpeded. I was researching a…

  • Great for me
Cons
  • Exchange availability

Would buy again. Go Pro

I've used it in the cockpit of a 2016 Ram 2500 Crew and have had great results so far. Initially, I was worried by all the Bluetooth interference reviews. My Ram uses Uconnect which connects the cellphone to the radio for various options and is completely interference free. So maybe the problem was only present in earlier models. Whether mounted on a hitch or on the rear bumper of my 18ft aluminum clad RV it still maintains a sharp image and I kept trying and still had a good signal up to about

Durable, useful components, weak magnet.

This is a great tool for quick towball and hitch alignment. The clear, wide-angle view displayed on the screen allows you to get the job done from the comfort of your cab, look around, come back, set your truck, come back to check you're in it, etc. My only complaint is that the magnet doesn't is as effective as it could be for mounting the camera to the tailgate. There are two reasons for this: 1. The magnet is weak.2. The magnet aligns horizontally to gravity when you attach it to a vertical…

Great rear view camera for trailers.

First of all I would like to say that I bought this camera because of its portability, so I didn't have to have 3 or 4 different cameras, and also because it is 100% wireless. I can attach it (camera has a magnetic base) to my front bumper when I need to park very close in front and don't have a passenger to help me get in. I also wanted a camera that I could mount on the rear bumper of a boat trailer and I needed a camera that I could mount in our van's fifth wheel and lift the truck myself. I

Pros
  • Car rear view cameras
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.
