How many use a dash-cam?

chops

i use a G1W-C mounted to my windshield, behind the rear view mirror. "C" version because in california it gets too hot, dash cams with batteries will explode.

The blackvue I showed you (not sure if case for all blackvue), memory consumption it overwrites the oldest file:

Lets say you have a max recording of 8 hours on a 32gb card.

Records hour 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8. When 9th hour is recorded, hour 1 gets deleted automatically and everything shifts up. so the position of memory become 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 and it is looped. Also you can cut up videos so when you review them, each video will be like 3 min long or w.e u want. Convenient for when you wonna look up something specific. Dont have to dig through 1 huge file like how you look for a certain scene in a movie file.

This might be asking for much....but any with connections to a rear view camera? :P

I won't have the backup until I install a new dash unit.

I have the G1W clamped to my rear view mirror. I got it for a x-mass preseant and like it a lot. It take clear videos and good audio. The camera looks decent but not super cheap. This reduces the chance of someone smashing the window to try and steal it. I took a sharpy and colored in the chrome part to make it a little more stealth. For the price, you can't beat it. It's also my anti fun device for when I valet the car. They see the camera on and recording so valet drivers tend not to do stupid things knowing that I can easily prove any mishaps.

When I got my dashcam I wanted the back too. "Why not go all the way" right? Too bad for me, i tinted my car at 5% rear so i dont think dashcam would work for me. As i suggested before tho, if you only get a front dashcam, just park your rear in and your front out.

Are you talking about a camera that is mounted in the front that records 2 directions or two separate cameras? I heard cameras that record front and back are not worth it. When you mount the camera for a clear view of the front, the rearward video quality is compromised. In a lot of cases, the rear video becomes almost useless because you can't make anything out.

my question is where does the recording go. is it sent to your phone/computer/etc. or does it go on a memory stick that's in the camera?

I have a 32 gig class 10 micro sd card in mine.

kenchan

no, kinda like that guy cleaning his TB blasting cleaner into it while still on the car.. magically disappears...

njobe89

oh ok, so you have to take the card out and then upload it onto your computer. it would be nice if there was a wireless one that could stream directly to your phone or something like that.
