Not really on par with Korean true parking mode. But it works now.

Time to get the Viofo HK3 hardwire kit if haven't got it.

I just noticed that my car with start stop engine feature, the dash cam will enter parking mode when the engine shuts itself. Then when the engine is back up running, it will revert back to normal recording.

I'm not sure if i did the hardwire kit correctly or not.

That's because of the start-stop function causing it. Your car too high tech d laugh.gif laugh.gif laugh.gif

If you like to DIY, is easy. Just need a tester and the fuse map.

Is the new Viofo119v3 is better than Thinkware F800 in terms of video quality?
*
Yes, Viofo has fine-tuned the A119v3 to have better image quality.

Viofo A119v3's 1600p vs Thinkware F800 Pro's 1080p sweat.gif sweat.gif sweat.gif RM400+- vs RM2K+- sweat.gif sweat.gif sweat.gif

The Thinkware F800 Pro is a dual dashcam. Also featurewise is more than the A119v3.

Thanks for the feedback bro. Actually I was referring to this review:



I plan to buy F800 for front & rear but after watching that review made me think twice.

This is my first dashcam. My criteria are just image quality & gps. I don't really mind parking features though.
*
Viofo A119v3 is very clear and currently the best single cam with buffered parking mode when used with HK3 hardwire kit.

You can look at A129 Pro Duo if you're looking for front & rear. It's true 4K with buffered parking mode. Review here: https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=4826786 & https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=4853331

The video review is comparing Q800 Pro which is a 2K dashcam. Not F800 Pro which is 1080p. Q800 Pro is known to have not so great video quality until Thinkware releases a new firmware that fixes this.

But note that Thinkware dashcam is known for its true parking mode, accurate ADAS, Smart Camera Alerts, and Cloud features. Buying Thinkware is more for the overall package than video quality alone.

Too bad still no news till now...
BTW blurjoey, does SanDisk High Endurance 128GB sdcard works good in A129 Duo? Because yesterday the camera just freeze with screen on, need forcing it to power off and on then everything work again....

Latest version, low bitrate parking mode.
*
Wait and see. Think maybe pending from Viofo side?

Overheat during parking mode?

Which Sandisk HE did you get?

This is the latest model from Sandisk.

Hi all gurus,

After reading some threads for the past few nites, which will you guys recommend for dual dah cams ?
1) VIOFO A129 Duo cam with hardwire (parking mode) (Not the 4k)
2) mini 0906
3) Sipii SP200 (dual cam)

It's my first dashcam, im not too sure which to invest on. Eventually given up on 70mai due to lithium battery issue.

Thanks all!  notworthy.gif
*
If budget constraint, go for mini0906 but wait a bit as mini0906 Pro is coming soon in a few week's time.

Recommended getting the Viofo A129 Duo if you can.

Not sure about SIPII SP200 but from the specs it is not a true 4K dashcam as it is recording in 4K@24fps (upscaled resolution) if using front cam only. Dual is 1080p for both cams. GPS module not included.
