Hopkins Backup Sensor System - Audible Alert - License Bracket Mount
Extremely fast delivery. Simple installation on my 2005 Nissan Altima. I like the product because it eliminates drilling holes in the bumper. I found the audible alarm cable to be about 6' shorter than I needed. I easily spliced in a cable extension. Product worked well. Well worth the price.
Installed on 2015 Kia Sorento. My particular installation was simple . I new it would be , that is why I chose this product. My backup lights are located on the back door hatch. Removed three small opening covers and exposed the opening to the light wiring and gained access to " fish wire and connector through, without removing paneling. Connections were literally a "snap". All was achieved within the back door panel. The unit seems to work fine but is lacking corner activation, which is to be expected with only two sensors. My particular application will not sense a small dog even when sensors are pitched lowest possible.( high licence plate). Had to disconnect and reconnect connector with white alignment dots numerous times before unit worked properly. Overall, I would say it functions very well . It is very adequate for my needs and at a reasonable price. I Couldn't give it 5 stars because of the connector problem. How it does in the future. only time will tell .

VueSMART RV and Trailer Backup Camera - Wireless - Universal Mount - 152-Degree View
After receiving I did not install on my trailer for several months until after I removed the fading stickers and re-polished the exterior. I was very excited to buy and receive until I installed it and started using. I am not very happy with the camera. I installed it on the back of my 24’ trailer and tapped power from the top center running light. The video display on my IPhone is grainy, choppy and freezes after about a minute of use. During daytime use I have to turn the running lights off then back on to reset the camera after about a minute of use. I cant see at all when I am backing up if its dark, even with the extra lights I installed on the back of my trailer. I wish I was happier with the performance. I do not recommend.
Wow - The VueSmartRV and Trailer Backup Camera is exactly what I needed! It’s like a Body-cam for my highwall popup trailer. I cannot see behind the trailer at all, when in reverse. This saves me from having to get out to assess and reassess my surroundings. The WiFi signal easily connects to my Moto Z2 (Android) phone through the Hopkins Towing Solutions App. What I like about the camera is that it provides a clear picture of the view behind my popup and there’s no delay or choppiness in its motion. I reversed the bracket so that the marker light is located under the camera. In my case, I benefit most from such a setup since my spare tire blocks the lower portion of my field of view on the screen.
The product still works very well for my purposes a year in. The only issue Ive experienced is that at night-time, there is an LED light that stays on, and because it is white, it blinds those behind me. I wound up selling the trailer a few months ago and sold the camera with it. Although I never tried it, I came to understand that that there is a setting inside the App, which can turn that light off.

Rampage Wireless Backup Camera for Smartphone or Tablet - iOS
Hooked it, up, charged it, and downloaded the wifi. It works fine. I only wish it came with an angle bracket because I have no right angle metal on the back of my trailer to attach the magnets. Not a big deal because I can make a right angle metal plate and then all should work well. Great clear picture.
Worked great to line up my hitch ball and trailer coupler when I was ready to leave camp. Just have to remember to remove it from tailgate before pulling out.

Rear View Safety Wireless Hitch Camera
I needed a backup camera for ram pu. you can't see bumper or dump trailer hitch. The mirrors don't work. Most of time 99% of time I'm by myself. So a camera was the answer. This one was the one I needed,it had a nite vision and color in daylight. With the magnetic base I can put it on tailgate and see all . Monitor just plugs in 12v assorey . its portable I can use on tractor also. used it twice so far and it's Great.
Its a time saver and easy to use on any vehicle with 12v outlet.
This is a Christmas gift, so I haven’t had a opportunity to view or use this device. I have several trailers and backing up to the hitch means jumping in and out of the truck numerous times. Since my older truck ( 1979 F 150) does not have backup cameras this will be a great addition. The gift is for me and I’m anxiously awaiting Christmas.
This camera has worked out very well my son in law has a built in camera on his new truck and this camera works just as well I’m impressed with how well it works. Thanks

Rear View Safety Blind Spot Sensor System
This was by far the worst purchase I have ever made. This product is more of a hazard when driving then a help! I had it professionally installed on my 2021 GMC Canyon. If I use my turn signal, the buzzer goes off then while driving road signs, mail boxes, trees , shrubs and almost anything on either side of the road set the indicator lights and buzzer off. I would highly recommend trailer discontinue carrying this product as it is Junk

Hopkins Trailblazer Electronic Deer Alert
Disappointed that the signal is only 105 feet My existing one is 1700 feet. But than yours was about $xx cheaper. I haven't installed it yet so I really don't know how well it works.
Guys and gals. The Trailblazer Deer Alert is a very effective tool at letting deer know that you're approaching. For those not familiar, it's like a train whistle warning humans so we don't get startled and panic. This is the warning for deer. When you finally get to them, they'll all be looking your way, it's kind of weird, but now they dont scatter. It makes it safer to avoid them when they stay put. Each of my 3 family cars have it! Easily wire this to your fog lights, etc. Safe driving.
Very good!
It it not perfect because it is limited to certajn degree. It would work better if my placement would have allowed for it to be a little bit lower. I am still very happy with the purchase and would definately recommend it. It is still a great help to me.
