Best Rearview Camera Setups for HMMWV

[tjonesdfw]

Does anyone have advice on which rear view or surround view camera setup is best for the elements, and holds up well in the HMMWV? Rear camera would be mounted to the back of a four door hard top setup, or an airlift bumper with a rhino tire carrier. I've seen a lot of foreign made junk on eBay and Amazon, with reports of cameras fogging up, etc. Wouldn't mind having front and rear facing cameras if possible, and would like one that won't overheat the screen or camera if the rear view camera is left on all the time while driving. We have a solid rear curtain so we expect it to be left on most of the time. I've seen videos of the surround view cameras that activate with the blinker as well, but the only one I've found available is thousands of dollars. Thanks guys!

I've been looking at RV 4 and 6 camera systems. They claim to be able to be left on, and I've not see a lot of reports of fogging up. My only issue with them for side cameras they look completely out of place on the HMMWV, and I'm worried if I mount it on the back bumper of damage.

(6 camera was an idea to hook one or two up to a trailer to get full video.)

I got a two camera system from Amazon that’s been working well. The wireless flickers every once in a while but been pretty good. It was 24v capable and I tied the camera into the tail lights and the monitor into the dash light since I always drive with the lights on. It was this model. LeeKooLuu-LK6

I use a Pyle 4 camera system. 24v

Where did you mount your 3rd and 4th camera @simp5782? Does the Pyle allow for 24/12v triggers for example with a turn signal wire. Where did you pull power from?

Use a 24v solenoid in the battery box that kicks on with the main switch. 24063 cole Harsee solenoid.

I have them on bigger trucks. Usually 2 on top of the cab facing each direction. Interior and one on the passengers rockerpanel to see the blind spot.

You would want to use rear interior roof for one with the other right above it.

If you can find the micro cams you can gut the blackout from the tail lamps or the front blackout and install your camera in them and seal it up around the lens like the BAE check 6 tail lights use.
