Need help - Tyson Rayles - 03-03-2019

Micro-Mark used to carry a camera you could mount to a flat car and a receiver that hooked directly to a TV or monitor, no laptop or cell phone required but has now discontinued it and won't share who their supplier was. Anybody know where this or a similar product can be bought?
Thanks, Mike

Yeah Mike, what did you find? I'm interested in one for N scale. A pity that Micro-Mark won't share that info, just to keep a customer happy and coming back to buy other things....

This is what I was looking for. Been using it for decades, sees inside of tunnels, auto adjusts for light differences (like when it goes by an outside window) and requires NO cell phone, tablet or computer which saves a ton of $$$$$$$$$$$ And at $70 it is cheap! Louis (desertdrover) over at RR-Line posted the link while I was posting the thread here. The man is not only a wealth of information he is quick as well! Big Grin

here's what looks like the same thing at less cost  https://www.ebay.com/itm/Mini-Camera-TV-Nanny-cam-Wireless-cam-Small-store-Surveillance-Complete-set/392062774214?hash=item5b48c32bc6:g:D6kAAOSweEFbHrfK

That's a different brand that I haven't used before. Might be O.K. but I don't buy anything off evil-bay. The one I have been using is used 7 days a week for 2-4 hours a day and usually lasts for 3 years. I'm guessing the evil-bay one will probably puke out in a month or two at that price. I would take a chance on the evil-bay camera if it was for home use and would be used for an hour or so once or twice a month.


RE: Need help - jim currie - 03-05-2019

that's your choice , just pointing out a less expensive alternative .


RE: Need help - Tyson Rayles - 03-05-2019

Thank you, like I mentioned it may be fine I'm just not familiar with that product. I would like to hear from anybody that has used it.
