Hard wire with fuse then I can just tap into the fuse box directly right?

Recently did some research on models <300, & non-sticky tape type, seems like the Mijia dashcam seems to fit that 2 criteria while being a reputable brand.

Personally I use G1W (since 2014), unfortunately the plastic screen cover warped in the heat one day.

I see, thanks for the website link! I guess I gotta search harder and look around for the best choice

Most of the time, I’m just afraid that it won’t be able to last long, especially when I am going to park my car outdoor when I am at office for the whole day.

Yeah, I did see mijia dashcam on taobao too. But it seems to be quite similar to xiaoyi. That’s why I’m having a difficult time distinguishing their differences and making my choice.
Geez, the warping of plastic screen cover is exactly what I’m afraid of, when my car is parked outdoor during office hour.
Thanks for the info yea!

Go for capacitor based dashcams... Don't have to worry when parked outside in the sun and rain...

I believe both company are similar,but they split up or some shit.

As for parking outdoors whole day, it would still be better to remove the dashcam during those 8hours, at least for safety, peace of mind, and longevity of the device.

Last time Yi was under Xiaomi branding. Later on, Yi wanted to come out on its own and sell to the overseas market. So they split up with Xiaomi after Xiaomi made them a well-known brand with their action cam and IP home cam...

That's why now Xiaomi have Mijia brand with its IP home cam, dashcam, action cam, etc...

Taking the dashcam out will be good for those dashcam using a lithium battery, but just scared the mount will get loose long-term...

some times i think laptop theft's rechargeable battery magnetic detecting equipment can mistakenly lead them assuming there is laptop in the car but only find out dashcam with that lithium battery ...

or maybe dashcam's small capacity battery not able to trigger alarm,

or maybe the level detection reading allow them to differentiate if it is smartphone, powerbank, dashcam or laptop inside cabin

Anyone know where to get the iroad Q9?
Just go with one of the better one and no need to think anymore

Looking at ddpai mini2.
What's the advantage of silver vs black?

Black looks nicer and discreet... Specs wise both the same. But heard if used the parking mode will overheat quickly...

Just bought the black version. Not intending to use parking mode. Hopefully it's fine

Had a chat with a local DDPai seller about Mini2 and he said the parking mode will cause overheat issues. As long as don't use parking mode will be fine.

bought a Viofo A119 from Aliexpress, and it works only 3months, since 2 days ago it just wont turn on, change adapter change cable oso no help. any1 have idea how to repair?

Damn! . No warranty?.. Kinda why I prefer the buying local route. Sure costs a bit more in some cases, but can flip table if anything..

Can try to reflash the firmware into the A119?

Hi,

I would like to install 2 channel dashcam for my Honda Jazz. I've been reading a lot of good recommendation of Thinkware F770 and they are running promotion at RM1699 now. I wonder if this is really a good deal and is there any disadvantage for this cam? Should i get this?? Please give me some advice
