Hey y’all, Im looking to install cameras on my Semi truck/trailer, and I’m wondering how well the wires ones work that I’ve seen on Amazon. They’re pretty cheap, for what they are. They say that they can work 300+ feet away from the monitor. Doubt that. My concern is interference with the sleeper cab, and whatever I’ve got on the deck. Any thoughts on this? Heres one for example.

A friend installed four of them on an enclosed trailer towed behind his motorhome, and they work pretty well. 1 rearview, 1 interior so he can see if his stuff is moving around and 1 on each side for blindspot monitoring. I believe they are Furion brand.

I have this kit (which appears to no longer be available): https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08MJCJJJ5

Installed one camera at the top rear of my MH for rear view and the license plate camera for lining up on the hitch ball. Works good, but there can be some lag/delay in the picture. I'm especially careful backing up to the hitch, as the picture may freeze for a second, then jump to where I am. As long as you know it happens, you're good.

I wish I could turn off the rear camera IR though, as when I'm pulling a trailer, they reflect and basically white out the image, but I mainly drive in the daytime anyway.

I’ve got one. My rig with truck is about 65 feet long and it works well. Bought it through Amazon with the solar charger. I have not had to manually charge it once.

I had the wireless Furion installed on the upper rear of our 23' travel trailer 2 years ago when we bought the rig and it's been flawless. Power for the camera is routed from the marker lights, which I don't mind having on in the daylight.
