Maybe the battery will spoil first as heat and battery don't play well together... Anyway I don't take out when I parked my car...

won't spoil the cam, but after a certain period of time, the mount will become loose

Just use the Xiaoyi Car Dashcam less than a week. Video is nice but sunlight reflection is noticeable thru len. Therefore, looking for CPL len now. Do update me if there is any available in the market.

All dashcams have that glare/reflections... CPL is the way to go...

any one who interested to get xiaomi yi dashcam

@ RM187 include courier fees (peninsular only) with 1 year warranty by a company seller

i guess only this company seller can offer 1 year warranty so far. others are 7 days ~ 6 months.

can pm me

valid now till 30/4, and only can do 3 or 4 purchases for this price.

There's a difference I think, read it on the forums. The FAQ on their website mentioned this too ( just found out ).

QUOTE
To make the use of the camera more convenient, we provide a double-port cigarette-lighter adapter in the product pack. While the adapter is charging the camera, you can still use the other USB socket for your another electronic device. However, do plug the charging cable of the camera to the socket close to the blue light.

I updated to the latest version... haven't mount the cam in my car yet laugh.gif

I think there's some bug with the new screensaver option.... had to reset to take control of the cam again.

Via the Xiaoyi dashcam app... Make sure you have a microsd card in the dashcam before starting as it needs to copy to the dashcam before it can flash the firmware... Also a stable power supply...

Just checked your Aukey USB charger, it has one 2A and 2.4A ports... shouldn't be a problem. I have a feeling the port near the LED light on the yi USB charger has higher output than the other.
