PEAK backup camera system. Wireless. Works very well for the money. It would be hard to be without this system now that I've gotten use to it. Not only for backing up but for monitoring what's behind you at all times...especially when you start to change lanes!
UPDATE 6/12/13:
The "level" was removed as it's not necessary. The transmitter (with the antenna) is ran to the front of the 13' Scamp and hangs over the shower curtain rod in the front bath. Otherwise, it receives too much interference to work sufficiently while on the road. There is enough cord that comes stock with the setup to do this.
Doing photo-a-day for 2.5 years and lots of photoshoots with a 15 megapixel camera results in a lot of data. My backup hard drive died on Monday night and so I ordered a new drive which arrived today (thanks Amazon Prime!) A new, full backup of 1.3TB sure does take a while...
Also, the last backup drive died after a totally unreasonably short time period: 7 months. Fortunately, it's under warranty, so you can be damn sure I'm getting them to replace it. Of course, I can't wait that long for having a reliable backup, which is why I've got a new drive now. Besides, it's not like I'd really trust its replacement as my main backup drive after having one die so fast. But I imagine I can use it as an off-site storage backup, which is something I've been wanting for a while.

Photo-a-Day

Year 3, Day 159

The first backup on Time Capsule takes a very long time. It was going to take so long that I'd have to leave the computer on overnight.
I decided to move the computer to the dining room, because surprisingly the Time Capsule makes more noise than my iMac when it's operating. I can't sleep with my iMac on so trying to do so with Time Capsule too would be a nightmare. When I got up this morning the backup was complete.
