Question:

Your back up cameras. Can they be used at low light or dark lighting? can they be used as rear view cameras? How much power does the camera use and is there a battery for remote operation. ?

The VueSMART RV and Trailer Backup Camera # HM34FR has 6 LEDs surrounding the camera lens for low/dark lighting so it can be used at night, but it does not have a night vision feature. It uses 12V power and wires into your existing taillight harness. The camera does not have an internal battery so it relies on the 12V power for operation.
