Thanks for the info. I bought the camera without SD memory because I don't know the type of memory that will be given to me by the seller.

Tried it with an old 2GB micro SD, result was stuttering every 5 second video perhaps due to slow transfer/save.
*
Old cards have slower read/write speed. Some 2GB from how long ago?

QUOTE(monkedz @ Aug 31 2022, 12:04 PM)
Is it recommended to get z50 gps than the non gps version?
*
GPS is you want the SR, ADAS, Speed, Route logging features. If don't want then no need GPS.

QUOTE(eastwest @ Aug 31 2022, 12:27 PM)
Those who use hardwire kit for dashcam, do you tapped it directly to the fuse or use a fius holder?
*
Use fuse taps and piggyback on existing fuse

Do you happened to know is there a way to lock the current footage from overwritten via the unit itself?
*
Read in the menu the right button is the lock button. Need to check is it the lock video file button or the lock screen button.

Since 2.1 is still stable for me, I have not update it yet.
Worry of instability.....

Not using viofo hardwire kit. I'm using Vicovation parking kits. It got manual, auto switching and timer duration.

I occasionally switching on the parking mode when not comfortable with the area or area that new to me.

But Vicovation went out of dashcam business in 2019. Still can buy ar?

Boss blurjoey if range RM500-600 is 70mai A800S a good choice? No parking mode coz just power thru ciggy port, just want good video capture when driving with F+R cam. Thanks!
*
Actually most dashcam is a good buy if just using for driving only.

But have to take note on the lithium ion battery 70mai is using. If you're parked indoors most of the time then you don't have to worry about the heat much.

But if always park outdoors then consider a supercapacitor dashcam instead.

For 4k dashcam we should be looking at at least u3 standard sd card? I saw Samsung pro endurance got u1 and u3 standard for 128gb
*
That's is old model vs new model for Samsung Pro Endurance. The white and blue pro endurance is new model.

Anyone here bought ddpai’s hardwire kit? Would like to know if there is a connector for this fuse type below?

I tried contacting ddpai Malaysia and they are also not able to give me an answer.
*
DDPAI hardwire kit comes with 3 sizes fuse - ATO, mini & low-profile mini. Yours is the low-profile mini.

Ok I think it should be low profile mini.

The problem is the fuse type my car uses sometimes called low profile mini and sometimes called micro when I tried to search for it online, so a bit confusing.
*
It's actually called low-profile mini. The mini and low-profile mini is actually the same size. Just that the mini has longer feets.

Anybody bought Viofo from taobao before? Their price is rather attractive. Is the hardware kit fuse compatible with our Myvi too?

【淘宝】https://m.tb.cn/h.Ub81YuU?tk=PLOY2Etmp5U CZ0001 「VIOFO威孚 A129 Plus 60fps+1080P双镜头内置GPS+WiFi 行车记录仪」

Yes very cheap. All hardwire kit works on all cars. Just make sure you get the correct fuse type for your Myvi.

Only issue if got problem then cannot claim warranty only as buy from taobao.

Thanks blurjoey! Eventually I don't mind no warranty as the price gap is quite big when compare Shopee and Taobao.

Do you get to know usually how much the fuse would cost me as Shopee Viofo.my selling RM8x for the fuse adapter
*
You can find fuse taps for very cheap in lazada shopee etc

https://www.lazada.com.my/catalog/?q=fuse+t....70a82bd1o0vZQe

But you need to which fuse your Myvi is using 1st.

Ah thanks, blurjoey! I had made my purchase because of your review as well as the explanations given about the fuse and hardwire kit.

RM45x for A129 duo plus with hardwire kits from Taobao. Fingers crossed that everything works well as I am going to send it to accessory shop for installation.

Any idea should I install a new tint first or have my dashcam install before tinting?
*
Usually is install tint 1st then wait a week for the tint to cure then install dashcam on the tint.

Tint you'll need to see as some time will block the dashcam GPS signal.

Means there are no China only version. And there will be english language in the settings.

QUOTE(hihihehe @ Sep 11 2022, 02:28 PM)
Now my dashcam will not record if my storage is full. So many issue haizz

Try saving a file into the micro SD card using PC. If cannot then means the SD card is dead d.

Usually dead SD card will still let you read the files while unable to write into it.

Wondering anybody used Samsung Pro Endurance (Black colour version which is cheaper and slightly older one)?

https://www.lazada.com.my//products/i186993...ml?urlFlag=true

RM77 for 128GB with 5 years warranty seemed like not bad
*
Old Pro Endurance - 32GB, 6GB and 128GB. It's read speed is 100 MB/s and write speed is 30 MB/s.

New Pro Endurance - 32GB and 64GB, it's read speed is 100 MB/s and write speed is 30 MB/s. While 128GB and 256GB it's read speed is 100 MB/s and write speed is 40 MB/s.

Faster write speed is better if recording in higher resolutions.

You could be correct too

The date will always go to 00:00 everytime i start my car. Then there is a year 1970 inside the recording too. Reset dashcam and memory card doesn't help
*
Try updating with the latest firmware and see if that fixes the date & time issue or not.

If latest firmware still reset then it means is the capacitor failure. You'll need to claim warranty with the seller.

I think so, basic microSD class 10 80MB/s read type, but test out only around 30MB/s.[attachmentid=11253839]
*
The wordings on the 2 cards looks different. 1 is very nice and clean while the other looks sloppy. Fake maybe?

Anyway these cards won't last long if use in dashcams as it need to read and write non-stop while you're driving.

You'll need to look at the write speed also not just the read speed. Get High Endurance cards which is for use in dashcams.

CDM test results will also be affected with the card reader, the USB port, etc. Many factors. If you got old card reader or USB 2.0 ports then the test results will be affected.
