This is a one off sale with a used but great condition 5" DVR - one of these: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/262079807381
The AVin cable has been modified to specifically suit my unique cabling system.
I can't find the original charger but have found one that will charge it - but there is no indicator to show when the charge is complete: The red LED in the charger remains lit whenever it is turned on. The DVR has a battery charge status indicator on the screen display.
These have a very robust saddle clamp for a compact (single cell) 25mm/1" tubed illuminator, not supplied: Spotters don't need as much IR as add-on rigs, and most NV users will have a small one tucked away somewhere. All you will need to use is a T38 - or even a humble 501b if it has the new 'AS LED in it.
Their main attribute is nobody in a truck needs to keep putting a viewing device to their eye, the monitor, placed below the window line so it's not seen from outside makes for easy watching by all on board.
Find more detailed information about them in this thread:

The 501b AS IR pill illuminator is not included - nor is my 12v bench tester socket
As with all 'some bloke' items, attention has been paid to little things that make a great difference: The suction mount's pan and tilt friction reliability has been made possible by replacing the standard appallingly cheap unevenly cast ball ball studs (top) with custom machined stainless steel ones.
With rain shelter fitted because these are specifically designed for external use but adjustable lenses and flanges are not waterproof:

What you get in the box:
A 5" HD LCD screen DVR with modified AV in cable and plug - to be placed somewhere below the window line to avoid being seen from outside the truck - Blutack can be used if needed.
An E700 camera - modified with the neck milled back to suit C mount lenses, with a three core cable and plug soldered to the original cable, pre-fitted into the main spotter body. You may wish to invert the camera/spotter and position the torch on the right hand side so the lid is not sealed - user can seal it with thick grease or sealant.
A 50mm F1.4 C mount lens will be supplied by default as best option for mixed fox and rabbit spotting. For rabbit range only spotting a 35mm lens or 25mm lens for wider FOV's can be specified with the order.
Four M4x40 cap head screws to secure the torch clamp in counter bored holes: You need to source a 1" or 25mm torch tubed illuminator.
4 self adhesive cable tidies so you can leave the cabling in place and just unplug the main body to stash out of sight under the seat - remember it doesn't need to be taken indoors to be charged etc. I prefer to feed the cables out of sight behind the dashboard.
A 12volt car accessory plug with soldered cabling and connectors to power both the monitor and the camera.
A 3 x 1 metre extension cables to allow a myriad of monitor fitting locations.
A A heavy duty suction mount assembly with a modified stainless steel ball end stud and nut to bolt to the spotter body. You will need an 11mm or 7/16" spanner - or pliers if you are not so equipped.
A rain shelter and fixing bolt supplied for use in rain because adjustable lenses are not waterproof.
Price is £260 posted RMSD to UK addresses.
