Hi macaw, know what you mean almost as if you have two towed vehicles on car, camera system I’m going for is one that has a 7inch screen a bullhorn attached to rear of van, when you see any one that close, you can shout at them to back off your to darn close.('')
Seriously though, after looking at some of the camera system video footage, I did notice that the vehicle distance seamed a lot further away than it actually was, and that was on a few of the more expensive systems, that was the main thing that put me off the more expensive system, your use of the 12V CCTV Camera warrants a bit more investigation for my needs, I intend to mount camera under the skirt of van below the number plate as there is a existing moulded hole there, and I can run camera power wires to reverse light or to the vans constant power feed when connected to car, access easy through caravans rear lights unit. I will need to make a small rear cover plate very light strong mild steel to protect rear of camera from stones and other road debris. I have decided to go for a 7inch monitor, not to bothered if TV screen type or mirror clip on type monitor, as they will be on the dash of car, I have four 12V DC CCTV colour cameras from a previous security system, I will dig it out and do a test run to see if compatible with old reverse camera monitor. Will keep you posted.
