Wireless camera mounts beneath your existing trailer light and displays a rear view on your smart device with the Hopkins mobile app. 152-Degree viewing angle minimizes blind spots to help prevent accidents.Although I have not installed the unit on the trailer yet due to weather, I did ru a test with a temporary connection. The unit is impressive. Good picture quality and features. Good price. It will be installed on my cargo trailer. I expect i will not only use it for baking up assistance but, also help driving to insure safer lae changing, etc. My installation to be somewhat unique as the tailgate door leave little room to the roof. I have the installation well planned. Also I will provide a 12 volt weatherproof socket. Also provide a plug on the camera. With those additions I can remove the camera easily when not used for some time or during prolonged bad weather. 940434
Works great on flatbed car hauler for backing around obstacles. 940175
Have always had good reports on etrailer. But the vueSMART has not worked yet. I have not been able to get the camera to log on to its on wifi network. Keep getting message incorrect password, Sent a message to Hopkins on solution. 937173
Did not work with app Had to return 936661
I watched the install video and it was very helpful. Install was a breeze. It works very well at close range, but as some have mentioned, has a delay at longer distances. We have a 32' TT, so not very effective while driving, but is very handy when backing. 936618
Easy to install. Uninterrupted signal while traveling and parking my 20' Travel Trailer 935484
First order - even though it was supposed delivered - never arrived. No questions asked by etrailer - they resent another one and it arrived safely. Customer service very helpful and diligent to solve the problem. 934256
Camera has clear images in the day. At night will need extra light bar mounted on the camper The camera has two lights settings, but not enough lighting for camera to see in dark areas beyond 10 feet. Over all you can record video on to your phone and take pictures. I have a slide in camper in the bed of truck. So I can watch my boat from my cell phone at night since I do not have any windows on the back of camper to see my boat. Without getting up and opening the door. 933235
This is a pretty neat item. Pricing is reasonable. WiFi works very well. My only issue is starting up the program when I go on a drive with my trailer or need to park it somewhere. The user interface seems kind of clunky, as I have to attempt to start the software multiple times to get to the camera. It may just be me. I am hoping so. I would give this thing a "5" rating except for that. 928023
I tested the camera at on end of the house (inside) and went outside to the end of my driveway (roughly 110' feet) the picture was great and never changed and the frame rate didn't change. I was more than impressed with product. 927405
Bought this to mount on an older Roadtrek RV. The hardest part of the installation was figuring out how to get power to it. That solved, the camera is brilliant. WiFi range is outstanding. At 50 yards out I still had 3 out of 4 bars and the picture was still fine. I'm thinking about mounting another one on the back of my equipment hauler. 924622
I have bought this for a Christmas gift I can’t give a review now on the camera but the company Is grate to deal with 924258
Bought to go on the rear of a 26ft travel trail;er. Was concerned with a delay reception being wireless but it's hardly noticeable. We don't have the trailer yet but tested it from over 100ft with obstructions and it worked surprisingly well. I like that my phone is the screen vs having a screen mounted to my truck. 923819
Appears to be an excellent product. I have not installed it yet but the instructions are easy to understand and straightforward. I am confident it will live up to the high standards that apply to all the products offered by etrailer. 923432
Only gave it 2 stars mostly due to liking the idea behind its operation of using Wi-Fi to send it video to a phone app but this device has a major design flaw that even the mfg. amits and stated, "It's in the design to operate this way". The design flaw I am speaking of is when the camera is power on, which happens each time your RV's parking lights come on as designed in newer trailers rear camera power system, the outer ring of LED lights come on at 50% brightness. The mfg. stats they designed it that way so you would know the camera came on and if you do not want the lights on then you can turn it off thru their app. (True you can cycle it thru Off, 50%, or full bright) but WHY have it come on by default and stay on just to indicate the unit came on. I can just see myself driving down the freeway late one night, not really thinking that my parking lights have come on, (because it is now dark and my truck is automatic that way), and I've just driving more that and hour with my camera's light on shining on all the cars behind me because I was not out behind my trailer at that time to see my camera had come on! Now I would think this would not be a bad idea if I had the camera wired into my "Back-up Lights" where the only time I would even care if the camera came on is when I am using it to BACK-UP BUT, the way you are to install/wire this camera into your trailer means the camera can come on with its 50% light even if you are not needing to use it. Now I know a lot of us do not do much towing at night if we can help it but still. Also, I cannot say all bad things about this nice camera. Its picture is clear, operation is quick, (just need to connect your Wi-Fi to it) and to have distance lines overlay toggle on/off with a button, it offers an inexpensive wireless backup solution with plenty of options. Have not had a change to check its Wi-Fi range yet. Truth be said, I was going to return it due to, what I feel, is a major design flaw but I am starting to reconsider in maybe adding a way to power it on with an additional power switch. I think that little inconvenience of getting out to power on the camera when I need it is outweighed by the savings of this little add on. I would have liked to been able to use it wherever I may have wanted to just check out the back BUT. Hopefully, the mfg. will get the hint and rethink their philosophy... We’ll add more once I’ve installed and used it but so far I am happy with my purchase. Steve – Texas 2019 Chevy Z71 HD2500 Crew w/35’ Open Range Light 5th wheel. 923385
This is not going to work out for our Lance Travel Trailer. Very wide top clearance light and no flat area to mount and then get power from the light to the camera. Wish it would work for me since it looks fantastic. 922744
So far it has exceeded my expectations. I am replacing a furron system with this as the furrion is extremely difficult to see the image. The documentation is bare basic on instillation. A bit more detail and/or photoes might help. Also, if the antenna holder could be integrated as part of the holder rather than having to make holes in the camper to hold it would be appreciated 922628
Can't tell you yet. I am getting it for Christmas so I haven't even seen it. 922546
If you don’t wire it up backwards it works like a charm. Great view. Easy to install as long as your trailer wires are long enough. Took me a little while to get it right because it always takes me several try’s no matter what I’m doing but I bet you will have an easier time of it. Remember, if you wired it right the LEDs on the camera come on. 922312
I just got it installed. Seems to work just fine. I’ll certainly know more when spring rolls around and we are out camping again 921809
Installed on a 29' Stealth TT lag and latency when connected. Sometimes while connecting it reverts back to log in and asksfor username and password. Installation and set-up was easy. 921096
Perfect. Just as described. Easy to connect to the WiFi. 920551
Have yet to install but looks to be fairly easy. Looking forward to having the capability to view traffic to the rear of my trailer. 918195
Works well and easy to use. Good panoramic view. Have not used to backup yet but don’t anticipate any problems. 915959
Simple, quick and easy installation. Connect to the marker light wiring, mount with the provided bracket that fit perfectly under existing marker lamp and download the app to use. Registration process was a bit quirky else it easy to use. 915043
