which you guys choose for thinkware F100 vs viofo A129?
*
A129 it's a better choice if according to specs but loses to Thinkware's parking mode only.

A129 both cam is 1080p and using Sony Starvis sensor. F100 only front cam is 1080p and rear is 720p.

I've been wanting a reasonable dual-cam setup for some time. This looks as if it could meet most of my needs, plus the WiFi is a huge plus. So, it appears that we will need to snake a new USB cable from the front dashcam to the rear install, of course. Hope I can still hide that additional cable in the space I use behind the rear-view mirror, which would be ideal. Will also be interested to see how anyone with a hatchback installs this (mine would be in Subarua Forester and XV Crosstrek models.)
*
I have a friend that installed in his XV. Anyway, installing on those hatchback like trunks is a challenge than installing on a sedan.

Bluetooth very easy pairing. No issue. Just pricing 😢

New parking mode working method similair with mini0906. If used non correct hardwire kit, error will prompt out and unable to activate parking mode.
*
Heard the button needs at least rm100? sweat.gif sweat.gif sweat.gif

Cool. Then need 3 wires hardwire kit.

Remote control wont be rm100 price. Thats over expensive.
*
But above rm50+++ is too much for a BT button to take pictures and emergency recording. They should do like DDPai and include in the package.

how is the wire different from the a119/s hardwire unit? cannot use existing one?
*
QUOTE(sambest @ Sep 20 2018, 09:50 AM)
maybe the hardwire (3wires) specific to A129 got extra wire for parking mode.
mine a129 installed with normal a119/s 2 wires hardwire.
*
The 3 wires hardwire is like those used in Korean dashcam. It provides power when the engine is off and power on when the engine starts. More for parking mode.

2 wires only provide power when the engine starts. Or tap wrongly, will provide power 24/7 laugh.gif laugh.gif laugh.gif

A119/s/pro have parking mode also but don't compare with the parking mode on Korean dashcams.

just want to ask.
for A129, is it CPL lens it important?
my camera especially at night, when recording cars with LED/very bright type headlight, the video looks very silau & I can't read the registration number.
TQ
*
CPL is to reduce the reflections from the windscreen. Something like polarized sunglasses.

At night, the CPL will make the video slight dark than normal.

i've tried to delete.. It doesn't allow to do via Viofo app. haha.. looks like I have to try using PC then.

How about via the A129?

I usually take out the SD card and use a card reader on PC or my phone to read the card.
