Haloview T1 TX-Box Transmitter for RD7/RD7-MINI

Waterproof mount
After reading numerous reviews about failure due to water, searched Amazon and found the waterproof box. Installed unit inside and mounted to roof. Hopefully this will extend the life! Note manufacturer states that they improved waterproofing, but I did not want to take a chance.

Seal it in a weather-proof electrical junction box prior to installation
This transmitter is part of the RD7 haloview rear cam system. The reason I needed to purchase this is because it failed due to water ingress. I opened it up and drained a half an ounce of water that was in contact with the circuitry. Why is this not being corrected by Haloview; they must know this by the sales of this particular part. There also should be a link to this part via the RD7 product page. A 4"x4"x2" from Home Depot weatherproof junction box will do the trick. You just have to drill a couple of holes and ensure that the penetrations are siliconed.Haloview doesn't realize how much people rely on their rear view cams when pulling a trailer through heavy traffic on busy highways. This is a safety issue in which the transportation regulators must be informed of.

Should not have failed after just two years!
I use it to back up my motorhome and to watch my towed car while driving down the road.The new one "whites out" the video screen at night.I would not recommend this product.

Sealing it for less than $15.
This thing is NOT waterproof, even though designed to live outdoors. Buy a 4x4x2 inch eletrical box at Lowes. And follow photos. Use double sided tape to place on box lid. Drill a couple holes, seal with caulk and Bob's your Uncle.

Transmitter T1 failed twice in two years
I am an Electronics Engineer and I have the credentials to report the following issues with my Haloview RD7 Camera system T1 Transmitter that has failed twice in 2 years, and after several email communications with them, claims the transmitter has been upgraded, yet this new ordered replacement remains as a T1 model not a revised model number as I would expect for an upgraded product. I received a small discount coupon to replace the T1 transmitter. If it does not fail within 18 months, I will again begin supporting Haloview RD7 RV camera products, but not until then".
