Been thinking about using an old spotlight thru the roof on the Clipper. Was also thinking that I could also attach a camera to the light to be able to see 360 degrees around, or maybe replace the bulb in the light with the camera. Is there a reason I shouldn't do this? Bob | ||

Why not use one of those remote control roof spotlights seen on so mant motorhomes and attach the camera to it. Will work fine and at night you can add light, unless you are spying on the blond across the Park........ LOL. Peter. | ||

Bob, The problem you will encounter with this is how to run wires to the camera. You might consider using a wireless camera and power it from the light itself. Most rotatable spotlights send power to the light through a brush/commutator type setup, which does not make any provision for carrying, say, a video signal (nor would you get a good signal with such wipers). If you get a spotlight that has stops on it to keep it from rotating more than 360", you could do the video with a coiled cord. Good luck! -Sean | ||

If you really want fun an IR camera will allow more fun than even a low light std. unit. FAST FRED |
