Can Backup Camera be Wired to Trailer's Running Lights to be Used While Driving  

Question:

I want to install this wireless camera on the rear of my camper. The video suggests wiring the power to the camera through the campers reverse lights. I would like to use the camera while driving. Is there any harm to the camera if I wire it to something like the running lights? Will the camera have a shorter life if it is constantly on, as opposed to just when the reverse lights are on? Thank you.

The Rear View Safety Wireless Backup Camera # RVS-5350-W can be wired to any circuit to supply its power. If you'd rather connect it to the running light circuit you can. Then it will operate whenever you have the trailer's lights on.
