The only way i see the camera pickjng up the light would be 1 of 2 ways
1. Huge light bar attached to rack on top of jerp or maybe to the bumper. The cost reward isnt there for me

2. Run the light from the jeep to the mh ladder. This way the light is very close to the camera. This way is inconvenient and just not practical

So im ditching the light and the $20 was a cheap price for the experiment
How big was your light? I've seen some folks say they mounted it on their visor and dropped the visor down when towing.

Wish I knew wireless electronics, I'd try to build a wireless brake indicator.


Edit: I see that SMI makes a wireless brake light indicator; SMI Coachlink 900. Pricey at $225, but peace of mind may be worth it.
