I had a bad experience on using NetAC from Gearbest. 2 units was DOA. Will buy local 128GB MicroSD biggrin.gif

The micro SD I get from Gearbest, Samsung Evo Plus and Netac Pro, not yet encounter any issues innocent.gif  innocent.gif  innocent.gif

https://www.lazada.com.my/products/samsung-...bdZs9U&search=1 cheap! 128GB evo plus for RM149 drool.gif just got this to go along with the A129 when it arrives.


In any case, the bit rate for the new A129 is around 16.7Mbps, so with 2CH recording, it would have around 8.5 hours of recording time with the 128GB card right?

Each recorded file for 3 mins loop is 363mb front camera same goes to rear camera. So you will get 363 mb *2 file during 1080p 30 fps dual channel.

Thanks! So say 370MB for a 3min loop file, it needs around 7.23GB per hour per channel, or 14.5GB per hour for 2CH.

A 128GB card has around 119GB of real free space (128,000,000,000b), thus we would have a recording of around 8.2 hours for a 128GB card for 2CH.

Wow! You are their VIP. They sent mine using other post and took 2 week+ to reach me sweat.gif  sweat.gif  sweat.gif

Maybe it’s because I bought 2 units of the A129, so they upgraded my shipping FOC sweat.gif

Very tightly packed, the whole box is covered with tape!
