Not as good as stock camera

Bought and installed on the rear window of my SUV. I mounted it high to give me a good view of everything behind me and to help tow a trailer. I thought once in the cockpit there would be no problems with rain. I also liked the alignment markers to see distance behind me. It worked reasonably well for starters, although it had a pink halo around it, and definitely not as good as the Acura's OEM camera, especially at night (I think I get glass reflections for the IR LED), but for the price was…

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Not automatic

Replacement cam fitted to rear of Sprinter van

I fitted this product to two Sprinter vans in November 2012. For my installation I placed it on the rear brake light [silicone]. Sprinter vans have a small plastic grommet for routing cables to the roof. [Silicone Gasket] The included wiring was long enough to reach the header above the dash. [I installed the display at the head of the bed]. The camera works great. In 5/2013 one of them is full of water, it could be damaged by branches, so I'm ordering a new one. I like this product for the…

Pros
  • Slim design
Cons
  • Not as thick as other options

Malfunction? on Car Video

Before installing the camera I tried it out in daylight and it seemed to work fine. Some colors were distorted in bright light, but I assume this is normal on a CMOS camera. After installation, I used it at night and the LEDs did not light up. I installed it after Revain's 30 day return policy, so I contacted the seller (Loftek) for a warranty return. Since the seller didn't have a replacement, they credited my account for both the cost of the camera and the return shipping. My thanks to the…

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Not sure

Great camera for the price

When purchasing an outdoor camera, always cover it with clear silicone prior to installation. Never assume that the seal is adequate. I bought this camera to mount under the sill of my 2010 International Prostar trailer to cover the right side where there is a huge blind spot. I used screws and zinc plated steel ties to make a bracket to lower the camera to look under the side skirt and tilt the camera back slightly. Because it's a wide angle, it can be pointed from the back of the fuel tank to

Pros
  • Rugged construction
Cons
  • No instructions

Hello! I've been using this CMOS rear view camera for four days now. There was already a problem with this CMOS camera. This camera has no video output when the outside temperature falls below 45 degrees Fahrenheit. After warming up to around 50 degrees Fahrenheit, this CMOS camera offers good video output. This is an issue as I live in Ohio and it is below 45F most of the year. I asked the seller (Brother Electronic Castle) what quality control standard they use when they "perform rigorous…

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Almost never

Great camera but needs improvement.

I think the camera is great, deserves 5 stars, but after I had to rebuild it (hence the 4 stars) I thought I should comment on it, maybe to help some ambitious enthusiasts. Several companies sell this device and I have read various posts about the pink tint. The picture is great, especially for the price, but shows a noticeable pink cast once it gets dark enough for the IR LEDs to light up. Also, the instructions are very poor and there is no mention of an extra wire which I've read has…

Pros
  • hands-free
Cons
  • poorly thought out
