Question:

I have this system for my tow vehicle and it works really well, especially when I need to hitch up by myself. Can I add a second system/monitor/camera to the rear of my 24foot travel trailer? I see there are extension cables available. This would really be useful when backing into a campsite when I am by myself.

Hopkins Smart Hitch Backup Camera and Hitch Aligner System Item # HM50002 only has one input so to add a second system it would require a complete new system. What I recommend is to use Swift Hitch Wireless Hitch Aligner System w Monitor, 2 Cameras - Night Vision - 10-Hr Camera Battery Item # SH03D which is a wireless, 2-camera system that will allow you to switch between the 2 different views from the cameras. I have included a link to a video review of this system for you.
