Rear View Monitor

[moppie14]

I have a 381m Momentum which is about 45 feet long, I'm looking to purchase a rear monitor, will I need a repeater to get a good signal to the monitor in the truck cab? looking for advice before I make a purchase, also experience on which cameras works.

Our trailer is only 35 feet. The Furrion Vision S system works very well without any hint that it's struggling to maintain connection between the camera and the monitor.

That's all I can tell you, but this reply bumps your question back up the stack so someone with a longer trailer will see it and can report to you.

Good luck.

I also have the Pressure Pro TPMS and am wondering if the Furrion Monitor signal will interfere with the TPMS. Has anyone have any experience with this?

After much study across many forums, reading many varied experiences with different makes and models, and then toying with a Haloview setup another forum member is running, I decided to proceed with buying the Furrion Vision S with the 7" monitor. I have no regrets! While I'm not as long as your Momentum, I have had no problems at all with connectivity and no lag. I really like the microphone so that I can hear my spotter as well as see. I added the side view cameras after two trips, which have been good to clear the blind spots while on the road and for reversing up my driveway negotiating the long, winding, narrow path with hard obstacles!

Is it a perfect system - nope. At dusk and dawn there's day/night mode confusion, which is not a big deal but can be distracting. I also don't like that I cannot hold the mult-view screen - i.e., see all cameras at once. The monitor is programmed to revert back to one camera view, and you can pick which one that is. This, however, wouldn't impact you with just the reverse camera.

If the frequencies are not close, you shouldn't have any interference. I just bought a TST 507 system, but won't tow with both setup till next season. Friends are running a Vision S and TST color with no issue.

I'll throw this out there just for comparison. We went in a different direction, but there is a back story. Years ago, when we were researching rear observation cameras for my old Springdale, the reviews on wireless cameras were not that great. Far too many reviewers complained about losing the signal. Because of that, we went with a wired system.

When we bought the Momentum, I couldn't see getting rid of the wired system, so i transferred the wired system to the new RV. It does take a bit of work initially, feeding the cable from the pin box to the rear, and running the other cable from the rear of the truck into the cab. In the end, we really like the operation and we don't have to worry about losing the signal or interference. When hooking up to the RV there is another cable to hook up, but that takes like an extra few seconds.

Isn't the monitor on all the time, you mentioned reverse not quite what you mean.

If that was for me, I actually meant rearview camera. Habit saying "reverse."
