Voyager Rear View Mirror Camera Monitor - 7" Screen

Video Transcript for Review of Voyager Mirrors - Rearview Mirror - VOM74MM

Today, we'll be taking a look at the Voyager Rear View Mirror with Monitor. Now this is going to be a replacement for the factory mirror in your vehicle. It's going to offer a nice, large seven-inch screen. So that's going from the diagonal down, that's seven inches. And this is going to work with up to three cameras. So you can have it wired in for a reverse camera, and then maybe two on the sides if you're using this on an RV, especially, or a larger van, or anything like that.

Let's see: measures seven inches there.And we'll be able to turn our monitor on, we have our menu selection, up and down arrows here, so we can make all of our changes and do all of our settings from the display itself. It's a TFT LCD color monitor, and again, it does replace your rear view mirror. It does have a reflective surface, so you can kind of use this as a rear view mirror on its own, but really you probably should just have the reverse camera as your rear view mirror function. Because it is reflective, but it's kind of hard to see. It's sort of like whenever you flip your rear view mirror into that sort of darkened mode, like whenever you've got headlights coming at you, you can flip it.

That's kind of what this looks like.Well, we'll have our wiring bundle, so we can connect into our plug there at the end, and then we'll have the rest of our wires coming out. So we'll have a blue wire, a green wire, and a brown wire. These are going to be our triggers, so we'll run these to the power for what we want to have them trigger to. So if camera one, which is the blue wire, is our reverse signal, we'd want to run this to our reverse signal on our vehicle. That way, whenever you throw your vehicle into reverse, that's going to trigger that camera to come on.

Same thing with the other two. If we have our camera three on the passenger side, we can wire this into our passenger side turn signal, and our brown wire into our driver's side turn signal as well. So that way, whenever you're making a turn, that camera is automatically going to come on.Then the other two wires will be our power and ground, just our basic connections to make sure the circuit is complete. Get it untangled here. So black goes to ground, red goes to power, and in line with that red wire, we'll have our fuse to keep everything protected.

It is a 5 amp fuse that's provided there. Has a little cap to go over the top, keeps that protected. And then our three remaining wires, these are going to be the connections for the actual cameras. Now, the length here is probably not going to be enough to get to your cameras itself. There are extensions sold separately. You can find those here at etrailer.com, as well as the cameras to plug everything up.Now it's recommended that you replace your rear view mirrors for your Ford, GM, or Dodge Sprinter, that's kind of what this is designed to fit with. It is compatible with all PAL and NTC format types, and it does have a built-in speaker, so we'll be able to hear if anybody's helping direct us into our parking spot, or if there's anybody behind who shouts, "Hey. Stop. I'm back here," and we might not be looking in our mirror. We'll be able to actually hear them through that speaker there.As far as the dimensions overall with our monitor, it's about 10 inches long, a little over 10 inches, about 10-1/16", and then it's 4-3/4" tall, and about 1-1/4" deep. Has that little stand on there, stands out about 3-1/4" inches. Screen size, again, is seven inches. It has an aspect ratio of 16:9. Our viewing angles will be 40 degrees for the top, 60 degrees for the bottom, and 60 for horizontal. The overall operating voltage range is 12 volts DC, and this will work from -14 degrees Fahrenheit up to 158 degrees Fahrenheit. It has a storage temperature range of -22 degrees Fahrenheit and 176 degrees Fahrenheit. It does come with a one-year warranty from Voyager.And that's going to do it for our look at the Voyager Rear View Mirror with Monitor.
