Looking for recommendations for a wireless reversing camera, preferably app based to work off an iPad or something transferable between machines. Was thinking magnetic would be ideal for Ag purposes and use for multiple vehicles and applications such as reversing, seed hopper, front mounted kit when pulling out of gateways etc. From a quick google there doesn’t look a great choice on the market so any user experiences would be appreciated.

an example of what I mean:

I’ve got a camera glued onto a big round magnet that sits in my drill hopper.it allways moves but does not fall of.ive ended up putting a bolt through it to hold it steady now.

Got 1 bolted onto an old cb aerial mag mount but it’s wired, got a few dotted about on different machines but all hard wired in and plug into tractor screens, plenty on eBay

Don’t know how good they are, maybe a bit pricey @UTV Products

I looked into buying one but quite expensive.

Thanks for highlighting this one and something we stock in smaller quantities. Definitely been a success in situations where connecting to Iphone or Android device. The magnet is best in class and recommend never get ones fingers between our magnet and metal surface when it's going down.

When ever I have enquired about wireless cameras I have always been told if it’s possible to have a hard wired one don’t get a wireless. Try reversing cameras uk. They do a lot with agricultural industry.

I've got a WiFi camera that sends the picture wirelessly,(creates its own WiFi hotspot and sends via that as long as you're in range so trailer men could connect if on the unloading spout of combine) but required power to it.
The pic is slightly delayed and will work on my android tablet but not my android phone.
I then bought a fully wireless camera, only to find it has to have a WiFi connection to work, so fine in the yard, no good elsewhere.

I’ve got one and been pretty disappointed really for a supposed premium product, it connects to iPhone Wi-fi which means the phone also seems to think it’s connected to Internet through it so it relies on this connection as opposed to 3/4g so no emails can come through and if you want to look on Internet or check emails you have to turn of Wi-fi/disconnect it, there is also a fair delay in the image reaching the phone so of limited use in many situations, the stated battery life is also optimistic.
I’ve now put wired cameras on several machines instead.
