    They will probably tear the cameras up too.

    I'm curious how that works. Signal pretty good to the truck? Picture decent? Battery life?

    In most areas signal is decent. Thing is it only records 120 seconds once it sees motion. Best bet is to have the WiFi box close to the ring. Mine stays outside of the cab making sure nobody steals tarps equipment etc. so it’s not far from wifi box at all. The wifi box is tiny.

    I bought the cameras from Amazon. Put the monitor on the sun visor. Wired a switch in the dash. I put on cam in the nose of dry van and other about 5 feet into the trailer at back. I use it as a backup cam the back into tight spots and shows the dock so I know when to stop. Got used to them and can't imagine being without

    • It’s a great idea and I want put a single day/night vision camera in my refer trailer as well but I’m not sure is it practical or will it fog the camera inside?
