RohentBackup Camera Monitor HD 1080P Night Vision Waterproof Car Truck License Plate Back Up Rear View Reverse Cam Kit DIY Gridlines R1

I installed this in my 30 year old truck. The installation was easy (wired it to the reverse light) and the camera angle and clarity are great.

This backup camera is very nice. The monitor has a crisp, clear picture. Grid lines are adjustable and can be turned on or off. The install was very easy. Nearly plug and play. Very happy with my purchase.

I Installed the the Rohent R1 Camera Kit in my Silverado truck to use as a front view/parking camera. This area is otherwise invisible because of the size of the front of the truck.I am very pleased with it. I have tried other makes and models that I have returned. This system is very easy to install, and extremely flexible allowing for differing installation options and functional uses.It does not have the highest resolution or the best night vision, but it more than makes up for these slight shortcomings with the following features:The camera itself is adaptable for front/side viewing or rear viewing. Rear view cameras reverse images to imitate traditional rearview mirror views. Since I wanted a front view, this eliminated many of the systems out there which cannot adapt. I am also planning a front-side view install in the future.This monitor allows for two separate video inputs. Different inputs can be selected automatically depending on the set-up power options.If you only want one camera, only one power source is necessary. Most systems require a separate power source for the camera and monitor.The lighter/power plug has a built in switch allowing you to turn the monitor on and off from your dashboard.The monitor is small enough not to take up valuable cabin space and large enough to get the job done. It is clear and stable and crisp enough to be seen even with bright light streaming into the truck. This is not true of others I have tried.As a result of the above I have given this item five stars. The reasonable price and excellent customer service are icing on the cake.

Really nice camera and monitor, can't beat it for the price. I was able to turn the monitor's mounting pedestal 180 degrees and hang it from the roof of the hole between the power outlets on my 4Runner's console. Also, the back of the monitor is flat, which makes it easier to mount it with velcro or double-stick tape as an option. The infrared LED's on the camera work great at illuminating what's behind you, and the picture quality is good. The camera's field of view (FOV) measures 70 degrees horizontal, 56 vertical, and 90 diagonal, not 135 degrees as stated. This may be fine, depending upon personal preference. My other backup camera (Natika) has a true 170 FOV, and it makes things that are just 12 inches from my bumper look like they're 6 feet away. The FOV on the DohonesBest camera makes it easy to judge distance, I just wish the view was a little bit wider. I wired the camera and monitor to be on while driving, with the camera mounted to the back of my cargo trailer. The only cons are that the monitor is a bit bright when night driving, and monitor settings such as brightness and contrast are reset back to defaults when powered off. I'm thinking of either hacking the monitor's backlight and adding a manual brightness control, or making a flap from some window tinting film to darken the display at night. It's still a nice kit for the price, and I'd recommend it.

The best item I ever bought. Super easy to install.The quality of the picture, the backup camera are like HD. I'm very happy with this monitor and backup camera kit. I recommend to buy it.

This camera works very well considering the price. I installed it in my 2011 Ford Ranger pickup (standard cab). Everything I needed for installation came with the product except for some electrical tape, a couple of sheet metal screws to attach the camera, cable ties and a grommet & putty for the hole I drilled through the firewall. I attached the power wires to the left backup light using the included wire connectors (see image). They made a very clean secure connection without cutting or splicing into the wires. The only difficulty was figuring out which wire on the backup light was the power feed and which was ground. Fortunately I was able to find an online wiring diagram and wire color chart for the Ranger (brown/yellow was feed, black/yellow was ground). I mounted the camera bracket behind the license plate on the bumper by drilling a couple of holes in the bumper and using sheet metal screws. The bracket is designed so that it goes over the top of the license plate and does not obscure much of the plate (see image). I ran the camera wire through the left frame rail. That was the most difficult part because the gas tank is right next to the frame. I was able to poke a stiff rod through the frame, then tape the camera wire to rod and pull it through. I secured it to existing wiring that also ran through the frame with cable ties where I could get to it. I drilled a 3/8 inch hole through the firewall for the cable and used a rubber grommet and putty to protect and seal the wire. I ran the wire up under the dash were I could then used stick on wire clips on the front of the dash to keep the cable neat and in place. There was plenty of wire. I had to coil up about 4' of extra cable and attach it out of the way under the dash. The Ford Ranger dash is pretty busy with no good place to mount the display. The curve on the top of the dash did not accommodate the included display mount. So I thought I would have to use a windshield mount, but I discovered that I could insert the lip of the included mount above the HVAC dash vents and secure it to the dash with some thin strips of mounting tape (see image). It is in a convenient location for glancing between the backup display and rear view mirror and does not obstruct the view out of the windshield. It also does not interfere with the operation of the vent louvers.Overall I am pleased with this camera. The high fixed headrests and shape of the cab in the Ford Ranger gives very poor visibility out of the rear window (even worse when you are carrying a load), so this camera is a great safety feature.

I have a small box van and a back up camera is essential. This is perfect. Set up was simple. I choose the push button install. Picture is very clear. The LED light around the camera is bright at night. I couldn't see it during the day but at night it is bright. I'm sure it would be illegal to have on at night.
