Is this cam using built in battery or capacitor?

How does this hold up under the sun?

In A119s better or A119?

Hey everyone!

I've decided to go with A119 (instead of A119s, can't really tell the difference). Is buying from Dfaro a good deal or buy from somewhere else? RM359 https://dfaro.com/gadgets/Car-Camera/viofo-...cam-support-gps

I'll probably give it to a shop to do the installation but I'll like to ask, is there different types of installation? Like to the cigarette power or directly to fuse box or something? need to buy additional hardwire kit?

Hope for your guidance on this, I do want to keep recording when my car is parked, a119 only records when there is movement?

A119S is using Sony Exmor sensor which has better night videos but at 1080p. A119 is 1440p video.

Dfaro is selling the A119 without GPS mount... You can search in Aliexpress for about US90+ with GPS Mount...

Actually, you can just use the cigarette power if you don't want to use parking mode or want to use the cigarette port for something else.

Hiding the cables is easy. No need to bring to people to install and you use more money...


Yes using directly from fuse requires a hardwire kit...

Thanks for the reply!

I definitely need the parking mode in case anybody bang my car while parking, this means I must get the hardwire kit right?

Must I get a hardwire kit specifically for A119 or any general ones also can, then I can just bring to workshop directly and use whatever hardwire kit they got.. hmm.gif

Any hardwire kit that uses mini USB can work with the A119... Not sure if the accessories have the hardwire kit or not...

Depends on how long you want to record... 64gb can record about 6+ hours and 128gb about 12+ hours...

Yes.. it can work fine without gps, except the clock time. The displayed time will not be accurate over time. Sometimes, it may reset itself during start up.

With vs without warranty + gps? Yeah.... very difficult decision to make. But mine has been working fine so far, for almost a year usage by now. I think this thing is durable.. try to google more and see how many people had issues with this. Then, after that you can make a choice easier as to whether to buy with or without warranty...

I got my A119+GPS from Lazada on a Fri using the HSBC credit card with max rm30 discount. In Lazada, different bank cards offer different discount % depending on the day.
