I received a high definition 2 camera system with a 7" monitor for my Tractor but may use a dash/backup system that uses a 12" rear view mirror for the monitor. Works great in the wife's car. The backup camera can be mounted with magnets to cover any area needed. The dash cam camera has just a little adjustment. With a touch-screen mirror, you can toggle between cameras or also to plain rearview mirror.

Does anyone have any experience or knowledge of a system that is complete wireless. I've been toying with the ideas of cameras for a long time, and for me, a system that can be quickly swapped between implements and tractors would be ideal. Rechargeable, magnetic mounting cameras with a rechargeable display. I can think of so many uses from work with the SCUT, right up to the big tractors doing tillage in the fields or hauling forage boxes down the road.

While may sold as wireless they really are not as both the camera* and display need power (usually 12 VDC).
The 'wireless' part is simply no wire between the two components.
Now the cameras are real cheap so you can leave then permanently installed and just relocate the display as needed.
*Most cases the camera gets wired to the back up light circuit.

Yeah, most of the actual commercial/ag systems seem to be that way. I could live with the monitor being hardwired, but truly wireless (rechargeable?) cameras would be key for versatility. There seems to be some no-name stuff on Amazon, but there's a lot to sort through to figure out what isn't actual junk, plus the Canadian selection is limited.
I think a system like I'm talking about could sell like hotcakes if it was marketed and priced properly.

Have an RVS system and I cant keep the camera linked to the monitor. Once in a while it works, mostly not. When it works, its more like a delayed slide show than a continuous movie. Worked great when first installed about a month ago. Tried pairing a few times, helped a little, then went back to barely working.
Any ideas?
