The IR lamps are for night vision driving. I am using one of the button blanks I got from Marlin to control a Stealth mode. With Stealth mode engaged all of the exterior lights are turned off while the IR lamps and night vision camera are turned on. The Lilliput 8899GL-80NP/C/T automatically switches to the camera's channel when it senses a video signal which is good because that is one less relay I have to wire up.Originally Posted by johnnyapollo
The iPad is one way to go and I had considered it. I have seen others do it but I needed something with more processing power. The board I chose is the IONITX-A-U, it has built-in 6 channel audio and will be doing exterior video DVR with GPS data overlayed on the video. I was able to source all the parts for my system for less than the price of an iPad so I found that appealing as well, but I can't take it with me so I guess it's a trade-off. I thought about doing like a caddy to make the PC removable but then decided against it. If you go with the iPad I would make sure you have the dash space, I think the iPad is a little too big for our dash.
