The battery life of the camera is stated as a range, as a range of factors impact battery life including the amount of activity the camera is processing (ie amount of movement), along with distance the camera is transmitting to your mobile phone, and even the temperature. The cameras have been tested to +8 hours in the best conditions.

Equine Eye is designed for use in standard floats and trucks, positioned at the front. If you have a large float with extended living area, or a truck / gooseneck and require a rear camera, you may need a hardwired device rather than a wireless camera. While the Equine Eye can transmit up to 50m, this distance is diminished if the camera needs to transmit through a lot of built infrastructure or horses. If you're unsure if the device will be suitable for your float / truck, we welcome you to purchase and offer the ability to return the product if you have any connectivity issues.
13.
Yes, it's magnetic so can easily be detached from the float and re-positioned on the back of your car for use as a reversing camera.
14.
The device can also be connected to router-based internet for use in homes, stables and other places. Simply go into the camera settings and select ‘wifi setting’. From here, you can select your wifi network and input the password.
15.
The camera creates a hotspot for your phone to connect to, and the uninterrupted distance is approximately 50m. However, when you add in infrastructure (like walls ) that the connection has to transmit through, this distance lessens. If your house is within a close distance to your barn, the Equine Eye could be used as a stable camera!
