Trailer Cameras - baby video monitor alternative?

[Cheshire Chestnut]

Does anyone have a recommendation of a cheapish trailer cam, round abut the £60 mark? Has anyone successfully used a video baby monitor as one? Just thinking that the range on them is quite impressive and might be a cheap alternative. Won't be used a lot - maybe a few times a month. Would have a holder to attach it to and take it out when not in use, not looking for an expensive fixed one.

Thank you

Baby monitors tend to have mains powered cameras as babies tend not to stray too far at night!

i have a little baby monitor/security camera set where both the camera and little hand held screen have rechargable batteries so i just charge them before the journey and bobs you uncle. However I purchased a few years ago and whilst i can find sets on ebay that have the screen unit they all seem to have mains powered cameras now. But i'll keep looking.

Found it! Although boy as it gone up in price, was only £20 when i bought it, works well though.

Or how about something like this - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Wireless-...925173?hash=item25b1bfc5b5:g:D~cAAOSwbdpWUx0Q
rechargable camera that connects to a smart phone as your monitor

I have a cheap reversing camera and monitor. It had to be wired but as my dad is an electrician labour was free works very well!

Is this for the driver or the passenger to view whilst the vehicle is in motion ?

If for the driver then its illegal

I know I post on these type of threads much to the annoyance of some but my intention is only to point out the law and not to tell anyone what to do
