AUTO-VOX Solar-Powered Wireless Backup Camera for Trucks - Enhanced Upgrade Version

Shooter: After deciding where to install the camera I noticed that I would have not enough room to get my hand at the switch to open the back door of my SUV. I had to mount the camera upside down. Of course the image was also upside down. I contacted customer service and received detailed instructions on how to use the software to have the image right side up. Worked great.

WILSONWILSON: When I buy something, I always take time to read comments. I bought my auto-vox camera in april…it works fine until this month(pic 1)…I sent a quick email to the company and got a reply in less than 48h…they sent me a new camera and everything is working so well! (Pic 2)
Very happy with my purchase.

SW: Purchased this product for my full size SUV that didn't come with front parking sensors due to capacitor shortages in the recent past. Let me break down this review to a few distinct components.

First the packaging and presentation; came in a very presentable package both outside and inside. The quality of the material was great and didn't feel as if you are receiving a cheap item right off the bat. The contents were well contained within different compartments.
Now for the Installation ; worked like a breeze. it is a very sturdily built camera and body that fitted well with the provided bracket into the number plate holder. I tried both the up and down positions and preferred the UP position. It would be good for AUTOVOX to consider some sort of theft deterrent when the device is fixed on the TOP position as the single alan key operated screw is exposed and an easy target for theft. However, if you place in the DOWN position due to reversing the device and the housing the screw ends up being facing down and would be very difficult to get into.
The wireless connectivity worked within seconds with the monitor unit inside the car. Almost had no set up to be done as both...

Bernard Vrbanich: Nice unit, easy to install. The image is a little grainy and I would like it to be able to capture the area directly below as I use it to back up my trailer.

G. T.: All in all this is a good backup camera, especially if you want to avoid having to direct wire to your back up lights, like I did. Installation is simple. Anyone who can use a screwdriver can do it. In fact, if you use the included double sided tape, you don't even need a screwdriver. The picture during the day is good, very clear. The picture at night is a bit grainy, but acceptable. It could use some improvement, but is clear enough to see what is behind you. The one thing that I didn't like, was the menu. It only stays on the screen for 3-5 seconds before disappearing, making you have to start over again if you don't press a button before it disappears. I wrote to support and asked if it was supposed to be this way and if there was a way to have it on screen longer. They told me it was designed this way and you can't change the time the menu is on screen. I was thinking about returning it, but I really hate having to go through the trouble and, overall I like the camera. So when I told this to support, they offered to give me $15 and 6 months extra warranty. Considering that I like everything except the menu, I thought this was reasonable. Support for this is great. They got...

John C.John C.: The installation was very quick and easy as described in the product description. It literally took less than a few minutes to install. The camera works well with no noticeable lag. It has a wide angle, which is very useful, and the screen image guidelines fit my vehicle well. I like that there was a battery level indicator on the top right hand corner of the display. You just push the button on the car charger to activate the camera.
You can set the time that the camera and display is on to either 45, 60 ,90 or 120 seconds then the display turns off automatically. However, the image quality is not HD. I think the camera is not HD since the display states that it is 1080p. I have attached a picture of the image quality. Overall, a useful and very easy to install a back up camera.

Norman JamesNorman James: This is my second Auto-Vox Backup Camera. I own the previous version for about a year and have been extremely happy with it. I have it mounted on my slide in camper so that when the camper is mounted onto my truck I can see what is directly behind me. It is a life saver to know how close to objects that I am when backing. I leave this mounted to my camper. I have a cap on the bed of my truck when the camper is not installed. I decided it would be nice to have a backup camera for this scenario as well so I purchased the newest version of the Auto-Vox. It works well as I expected. The setup is easy and straightforward. I mounted this one below my license plate. The camera is able to tilt and adjust the angle so that you’re not looking at the ground or the sky if that’s the angle of the mount. I mounted it with screws directly to my license plate. The mount has a slide bracket that the camera/battery slides onto. With the older version, there is no locking mechanism to secure it to the mounting bracket. The newer version has a small screw that performs that function. This will not stop a determined thief but it will stop someone from just walking up and taking it. One of the...

Senor JCSenor JC: Couldn't believe how easy the install was. My first step was I spent some time cleaning the license plate and frame and then installed the camera. It was very easy and had a snug fit against the chrome trunk finish which had me worried. I had a little issue with the second screw as it was slightly covered by the camera so I couldn't get my screwdriver onto the head. I grabbed needle nose pliers and gave it a few patient turns and got it on there snug. In the photo you can see the right screw, but not the left since its almost entirely covered now. Made me realize if someone wanted to take this off they would need to be just as ready since now there was no way to access that screw otherwise. I like knowing that.
Once the camera was installed the snug fit actually made it barely noticeable and the camera still swiveled without issue. The big test was to plug in the camera and turn the car on and get it all synced. I had the manual and was just about to start the steps when I turned the car on and there was the camera image! Was shocked how painless it was. Since I had it working I decided I would pull off the stereo dash trim so I could run the power wire down to the plug and...
