100% wireless solar powered rearview cam & phone app

[Twturbo]

So i searched all the threads on here for rearview cams & nothing was as simple as this one for just $99.00 ,it just bolts to the 2 upper screws of your license plate frame & thats it .Load the app on your phone & your done it's solar powered instructions say it ships with 90% battery life (which it did) & it sat on my bench for at least another 30 days & who knows how long it sat before it shipped.So should stay charged for a couple 2 to 3 months i'm guessing if cars in storage, quick drive & it's fully charged, also has a plugin for wired charge if needed.I made a little you-tube video of it to check out ,what's cool is it's not hooked up to the ignition so you can just tell Siri to turn on the app when your getting in the car & it's ready go ,you do have to tap your phone screen still though.Combined it with a great magnetic phone holder that attaches on the upper part of the spot were the key is for passenger side airbag & tucks away when done.I've done quite a few spirited drives with it & no issues so far from heat, heres the links to all of it

Are you going to do a dash cam too?

I thought about it but it would get crowded with my V-1.

Exhaust gets very hot back there. Hope it doesn't melt.

Hello Twturbo, how's the camera working so far ?
I'm interested in it as I'm tired of opening the door to double check how close to the wall I am.

Update it's been a year & it works great ,i've never had to plug it in to charge it & i drive the Gt about once a month.If your in a location with no or poor wifi signal with your phone ,it can be quirky.My plastic license plate melted but the cam is fine so far.

I like the phone holder. Do you have a link for that product?

What's actually pretty cool is a couple times i've left it on while driving & it's like having another set of eyes back there for passing or whatever .

How does the phone mount connect to the dash? Adhesive?

Yes it's adhesive but it's on the upper side of that area where the airbag key goes in ,so you could really never see it ,if it caused any damage tying to remove it.
