Can it be used in an RV, Semi Truck, or other high vibration mobil enviornment?

I don't see why not. The only thing with a mobile application is it may go off inadvertently as the exhaust fumes may come in a window or door when opened and trigger the alarm

I wouldn't see why not as long as the motor is not brushless, I used it to upgrade an old analog Tamiya Hornet! Works great.

I don't see why not. But they are generally used for sensitive electronic equipment to avoid interference from vibration. I bought them for use in an aviation application.

yes can be used for truck,van,trailer or whatever your going to use it for. Vinyl holds up well..if using for business i would recommend ordering oracal 651 vinyl from amazon has a 5 yr outdoor life span rating

No you should not,the engine should be running or u won't have proper voltage ...unless u have that type of RV of course that has an engine....

I have mine installed in a Park Model trailer at an RV park and it works fine. It should be safe as long as it is wired correctly according to code and you keep away flammable items.

I have no idea. I've only used it inside a moving vehicle. It seems to make a fairly strong connection so go for it.

Theoretically it can, but as per FCC regulations nothing over 40db gain can be used in a mobile setting. additionally the separation (between the inside antenna and outside antenna) usually needs to be more then the standard RV length. What we could suggest is that you can install it and then power it down to lower gain (say 40db) so you wont need that much separation so that it wont oscillate.

I do not see a reason why it would not work in a vehicle... It isn't exceptionally loud though, your amplification is coming from your waist so if the vehicle is exceptionally noisy it might not be very effective.

This radio CAN be used in a semi. I'm an amateur radio operator involved with emergency communications, in which CB radio plays a part, so I purchased this radio for base rather than mobile operation; however, it is equally adequate, and is really intended, for mobile operations. It is compact (won't take up much space in a crowded cab), rugged, sounds good and is easy to operate. It doesn't have all the bells, whistles and flashing lights usually associated with truck-mounted units costing many $$$ more but they aren't really necessary for reliable communications. Also, many big rig radios are of the single side band variety which won't do much for you either except to bump the price up. You may hear that big rig radios are more powerful than this one but that's NOT TRUE. All CB radios are limited to not more than 4 watts output. If they're doing more they are either using an amplifier, which is ILLEGAL and can result in fines and equipment confiscation if pursued by the FCC, or the operator really isn't using a CB radio but a 10 meter radio (CB radios operate in the 11 meter band) which can have a greater power output but also requires an amateur radio license to operate. The real key to good operation is installation of the best matched antenna system for your application. A good radiator will trump output wattage every time. Bottom line, a good radio for its intended purpose and it won't break the bank account. Spend the money on the antenna system. A lengthy response but I hope it helps.

Yes. I use mine in my truck for long drives and it has helped immensely. The air sides are useless and do nothing but the massage is very helpful.

No , I don't think it would. I actually have this installed in an enclosed motorcross trailer. I am not having any issues like this.

Yes it can be used in those applications. i have done a few of my car amplifiers.

It surely could be. We installed it to make the radio portable. We use it out on the porch, when working in the garage and outside. It is a nice feature.

I do not believe I would try it since the attachments are held on by friction. Work great in a garage but I would not attempt in a truck. Bill Berry

I don't see why not, it's basically a brake which pressure is manually controlled by the driver (before driving of course.) We use it on a somewhat light weight trailer, and our tow vehicle is a Honda Odyssey! Although I would see if your trailer fishtails before purchasing.

Yes, we use ours in our RV. It sits on the dashboard. It is not weatherproof!
