I have two Dropcams on my boat so I can monitor it year round. It's especially important in the winter so I can see if snow is building up on the deck. (Snow weighs a lot and too much snow isn't good.) Since my two cameras are inside the boat I can't see everything that's happening on the deck. So I decided to buy the Wide Angle Security Curved Convex Road Safety Traffic Mirror. If figured if I mounted it near the transom of the boat I could see the reflection of the back deck through my Dropcam. On Amazon the mirror was more than $50, but I found what looks like the exact same mirror on ebay for $24.00. The description says it's made of lightweight, shatterproof PC plastic. Diameter: 45cm 60cm = 18” or 24”. Reading the reviews I see people use these mirrors to see what's happening around their house, in the driveways, etc. On ebay just search for 18" 24" Wide Angle Security Curved Convex Safety Traffic Mirror. A huge selection will come up. Many of them are the mirror in the video at prices between $25 & $55!
