Do you have any info on the cameras and video switch used in your blog?
That looks like the set up will work for me.

For my recent project I also purchased this as it can be mounted on the number plate:

I can not remember the ebay seller for the switch but it was one that looked like this.

I saw a back up cam at our local wal mart that was selling for $50. (close out). I have been thinking that I would like to have a camera to help position my stump grinder....as I operate it from the tractor seat and the stumps / grinder wheel are hard to keep properly positioned.

I like the looks of that magnetic one above too.....lots of stuff to research this winter. Lots of questions: camera mounting, distance from lens to image, reliability due to vibes and dirt, monitor size and mounting.

I bought one of those to try out, but haven't had the time to install it yet. I will give you a review, but at this rate it may be a few years down the road.

I have the magnetic one - use it for hitching up to the trailer. Works nice. And you would be amazed at the things you come up with where it is handy to use such as troubleshooting something when you have to be too far away when activating it to see it well.

I hadn't thought of that. Good idea. Most of the time I am working by my self.

I posted in other threads about them but I'll post again. There's fixed and moveable cameras. In my case i wanted something with a magnetic mount to easily move around, got one, worked great. Cost was about $200?

Don't plan on driving around with one mounted with the magnet, you'll probably lose it. But for swapping around (I put it on my FEL for example) it works great. The monitor was a little difficult to see in bright sun.

I just wish it was true wireless B to work with my palmtop.
