Swift Hitch Wi-Fi Camera for Smartphone or Tablet - Wireless - Night Vision - 5-Hour Battery - SH04

Average Customer Rating:  4.4 out of 5 stars   (10 Customer Reviews)


by:

Almost perfect. Seems robust, feels solid. I had to use one of the adhesive disks intended to enable magnetic phone mount to use magnetic camera base on aluminum tailgate of 2024 Silverado truck, so could use a third disk and a rubber gasket to accommodate that disk but otherwise a great hitch aid as well as a security camera in campsite to check on that disturbing noise you hesitate to investigate in person. Allows recording vis/ir video & audio to phone or tablet. Good resolution but not 4K.



by:

Camera worked well for hooking the gooseneck onto the truck. I also like that it can be moved to the back of the trailer so I can see what is behind it when backing up.



by:

Could not wait to test this out and it is Great!!
Synced to my phone in a matter of seconds now I just can't wait to hit the road.



by:

Easy to sync with my smart phone and seems to have a good range.



by:

Looks like a great product but we'll have to test it as soon as I have time. As far as the packaging and overall appearance, it looks great and solid construction.



by:

Fast shipping, reasonable prices, great customer service. Will definitely shop here again.

Poor product. Will not work.

Great camera. Clear picture and very little lag.

  • Can Swift Hitch Camera # SH04 be Charged with Trailer Wiring
    The Swift Hitch Wi-Fi Camera for Smartphone or Tablet # SH04 can charge with either 5 volts or 12 volts so if you ran a 12 volt circuit to it like a the trailer wiring you mentioned it would charge it. Once your phone knows the wifi network of this it will automatically connect to it when it's present and would not require to manually connect to it. If you have the camera on already and then go into reverse to activate it there would be no change. This produces it's own wifi signal...

  • Is There a Swift Hitch Observation System that Will Display on a Ipad or Smart Phone
    We have a version of the Swift Hitch observation system that was designed for displaying on a smartphone with the part # SH04 but the part number you mentioned cannot adapt to then display on a smart phone. I attached a review video for this for you to check out as well.

  • How Does The Swift Hitch Camera System Connect To Smart Phone and Tablets?
    The Swift Hitch Wi-Fi Camera for Smartphone or Tablet # SH04 is the system which will work with your smart phone. Their 2 Camera System # SH03D will only work with the included monitor.

  • Comparing Screen Display of Swift Hitch Alignment Camera Setup SH04 vs SH02Digital
    I attached a picture that shows what the display of the Swift Hitch Digital Wireless Hitch Alignment Camera and Monitor # SH02DIGITAL looks like, but while I think the display is very clear and would work great you won't be able to beat the display clarity and size of a modern smart phone like what the Swift Hitch Wi-Fi Camera for Smartphone or Tablet # SH04 is designed to work with. Especially if you were to use it with a tablet which would be much larger.

  • Will Swift Hitch Wireless Camera Work With Carlinkit
    The Swift Hitch # SH04 requires its app to be available and used, and wouldn't be able to automatically switch when reversed. So it wouldn't be able to work with your Carlinkit, you would need a hitch alignment backup camera with its own screen. There is a similar option from Swift Hitch you can use, with the same camera but with its own hand-held screen, the Swift Hitch Digital Wireless Hitch Alignment Camera and Monitor # SH02Digital. I have added a link below to a video review for...

  • Recommeded Trailer Hitch Camera For a 2023 Jayco Redhawk Super C RV Motorhome
    I have a couple recommendations as the Rear View Safety Wireless Hitch Camera # RVS-83112 was designed to be used with passenger vehicles or light trucks. The Swift Hitch Wi-Fi Camera # SH04 is a better option for a wireless camera. This camera has a larger range of up to 200' versus only 70' on the Rear View Safety camera. It will allow you to connect to a smart phone so there is no need to add an additional monitor in your cab. Another option would be to add an additional wired camera...

  • Backup Camera System for a 2018 Ford F-150 and Jayco RV
    I do have a solution for you but to my knowledge there isn't a camera you can add to your Jayco that will integrate into the video system on your 2018 Ford F-150. To add a camera to the Jayco it will require a separate display. I recommend something that doesn't have to be permanently mounted. Take a look at the Swift Hitch system # SH04. With this system the camera will transmit to a smart phone via Wi-Fi. This will allow you to add a camera without having to have a separate display;...

  • Recommendation for Back-Up Camera for 5th Wheel RV
    I recommend the Swift Hitch Digital Wireless Hitch Alignment Camera and Monitor with Night Vision, # SH02DIGITAL. This is a wireless system with night vision capability, the camera has both a magnetic and a suction cup mount. It can be attached to your pin box to make lining up the king pin and the funnel of your fifth wheel hitch during hitching much easier. We've discovered that mounting the monitor on the drivers side of the cab and the camera on the right side of the 5th wheel provides...

  • Recommended Rear View Camera System For Back Of Trailer For Rear View While Driving
    The Swift Hitch Wi-Fi Camera for Smartphone or Tablet - Wireless - Night Vision - 5-Hour Battery # SH04 only has a 5 hour battery life. For a trip more than 5 hours, I recommend the Swift Hitch Wireless Hitch Alignment Camera and Monitor - Night Vision - 8-Hour Camera Battery # SH02DIGITAL. For a powered without battery option with wireless connectivity to your monitor, I recommend the Rear View Safety Wireless Backup Camera System - Cigarette Lighter Adapter # RVS-091406.

  • Difference Between the Swift Hitch Digital Wireless Hitch Alignment Systems
    The Swift Hitch Digital Wireless Hitch Alignment Systems save for the part # 04928 (SH01) all use the same camera. The only difference is in regards to the number of cameras included, battery life, and monitor type. The SHO1 system uses an analog system as opposed to a digital system on the other three. The Swift Hitch Digital Wireless Hitch Alignment System part SH02 was replaced by the part # SH02DIGITAL which comes with one camera, has an 8 hour battery life, and uses its own monitor....

  • Back-Up Camera for Outdoors RV 250RDS Travel Trailer
    We have a vastly wide selection of camera systems and I think we can help, even though I'm not seeing any listed with a marriage saving feature. There are three options from Swift Hitch that transmits both video and audio. This audio feature is important in communication when someone outside the tow vehicle is trying to provide verbal instructions to the driver. The Swift Hitch Wi-Fi Camera for Smartphone or Tablet, # SH04, my preferred choice and best price point. But this does not come...

  • Recommended Swift Hitch Alignment Camera with Night Vision and Monitor
    To get the wireless camera similar to the # SH04 along with a monitor, you will want the Swift Hitch Wireless Hitch Alignment Camera and Monitor - Night Vision - 4-Hour Camera Battery # 04928. This is the only separate monitor that will work with the Swift Hitch camera unless you use the smartphone or tablet app. The monitor is not currently available separately.

  • Do Any Wireless Observation Camera Systems Integrate with OEM Vehicle Dashboard Display
    Although we do offer many brands and styles of backup/observation camera systems these are all either complete free-standing systems that have their own monitor or they are designed to use a smartphone as the display. None of the aftermarket camera systems we offer are designed to integrate with OEM vehicle displays. This is a good question that is asked often. The system I tend to recommend for owners of longer travel trailers is the SwiftHitch # SH03D wireless dual camera system with...

  • Recommended Backup Camera with Wireless Ability for Tractor Trailer
    Rear View Safety Wireless Hitch Camera # RVS-83112 has up to a 70 foot range. Depending on the amount of aluminum in the trailer, that distance may be shorter. This system uses a 2.4 GHZ transmitter/receiver. For a WiFi Camera that uses your smart phone, I recommend the Swift Hitch Wi-Fi Camera for Smartphone or Tablet - Wireless - Night Vision - 5-Hour Battery # SH04. This will use the same 2.4 GHZ transmitter/receiver but will allow you to change the antenna location for better...

  • Wireless Backup Camera that is Android Compatible and Waterproof
    We have a few wireless cameras that can display on an Android device. First we have Rampage Wireless Backup Camera for Smartphone or Tablet - iOS or Android Item # RA7710. But this camera was not designed to be waterproof or resistant so it doesn't have an IP rating. Next we have Rear View Safety WiFi Hitch Backup Camera System - Wireless Item # RVS-83112-WIFI. Unlike the above camera this one carries an IP68 rating which means it is dust tight and it is waterproof up to 3 meters of immersion. And...
