@@budneale6743 Thanks for your kind words! You should check out my new video on Haloview's new 2in1 backup camera and TPMS system. We have been using it for quite a while now and it performs great and allowed us to eliminate one monitor off our dash. kzbin.info/www/bejne/r5yvnXuViautn9k

Really excellent review of the features of this system. You've convinced me to consider the side cameras.

They do come in handy when needed.

Excellent review and comparison. I just bought a new trailer that has the Furrion system. Hopefully they have made improvements or I will upgrade to the Haloview. Thank you!

@GiantsNinerFan56 Unfortunately, furrion has not improved their product. It seems they are not interested in doing so. Haloview seems to have really been knocking it out of the park. I just upgraded again to haloviews' new bt7 with TPMS it's an awesome system. I did a quick video on it. Check it out.

Thanks for the great review! My Furrion keeps cutting out no signal and my rig is only 24 ft since it's a truck camper. I'll be getting the Haloview instead. Much appreciated!! Cheers! ~M

After having a Furrion camera on previous trailer, I was less than thrilled; so I went with the BT7 when we traded in the trailer. I like the BT7 a lot, and the better resolution is great; but I do see a slight lag with the side view cameras, so it's imperative to remain aware and check mirrors when looking at the sides. My rear view camera is adjusted down to particularly help with backing up and parking the trailer, and that unfortunately means extremely limited road view; so I plan on installing a second rear camera adjusted up for better traffic view. I bought a Haloview elastic mount to attach the monitor to the vehicle's rear view mirror; the only problem with that is clearance between monitor and vehicle ceiling. Haloview helped me with antennas that mount closer to the body of the monitor, giving a little bit better clearance. My Winnebago Micro Minnie had a solar power connector right where I needed to install one of the side view cameras! I found a plumbing part that worked to fill the connector hole so I could re-mount the solar fitting and have clearance for the camera.

In a previous video you talked about the 'trigger" function needing extra work, I think that video was several years old...... On your new system has the issue with having the side cameras active with the directionals been resolved?

@Jonesin2Go 6 ай бұрын

@douglaswoeckener1904 the new system that I am using now does not have that feature.

Good video, my Furrion drops signal periodically too. Not real impressed with the Furrion. I've only used the back view so that I can take a peak at the bikes back there.

I have the Furrion system, and I have not had the lag you describe, but it does occasionally drop signal, and the resolution is horrible. The vehicles are just blobs on the monitor. Their true value is about $150,not the inflated price they sell for.

@Jonesin2Go 9 ай бұрын

You would expect that as long as furrion has been around,they would have improved by now. They don't seem to be interested in doing so.

Can you use your older cameras with the halo?

@Jonesin2Go 3 ай бұрын

I used my cameras from my bt6. It just depends on how old they are. The cameras from the bt6 and bt7 touch will work

I have a 30 ft TT with Furrion. I have no issues with it. Does what it needs to do. I basically use it to make sure the totes I have dont fall off and " sometimes" for backing in. I also have mine hooked up to the upfitter switch ( Ford)

@Jonesin2Go 7 ай бұрын

Hooked to the upfitter switch that is interesting and a good idea. So how did you run that? Just to the camera or throught the running lights?

I’m appalled that they use what appears to be wire nuts for their outside wiring. They should be using heat shrink butt connectors to prevent corrosion, but what do I know I’m just a dumb diesel mechanic.

@robh063 3 күн бұрын

It's too bad they don't make these that will power up the monitor with a USB C port. My Chevy truck doesn't have any 12V power sources that utilize a cigarette lighter type plug. That means I have to buy a different adapter and Jerry Rig the whole thing. Then because I have a 42 foot 5th wheel, I have to buy an extension antenna too. By the time I'm done, I'll have an extra $75 invested.

I have had Haloview for years and have been really impressed up until now. I installed the entire system with RV rear camera, two side cameras and a camera in the truck to align my pin while hooking up. Recent changes to Haloview has really upset me. Their new system is NOT friendly to their previous system. Cameras are different, cable from the rear camera to the wireless repeater is different, display is different. In other words "I would have to install an entirely new system (at new system cost) AND... pull a new wire from the rear camera to the repeater module which was practically impossible to do the first time. They needed to upgrade their system so it was backward compatible so the cost and wiring that would make a person with a generation 1 system could reasonably upgrade to a generation 2 system.
