True, but this 70mai 4G Hardwire kit doesn't seems to have the flexibility to opt for other low voltage cutoff.
They have 3 versions of hardwire kit now, the other 2 can adjust the low voltage cut off. As far as i know, the main difference only on the type of USB for the connection to main dashcam unit; micro USB & USB C connectors.

Anyway, i've been using for few days, tomorrow i will check my car battery status to see the discharge rate toll on my battery unit.
I've fully charged it on Monday night with Bosch C7, prior to the installation on Tuesday morning.

Drove lightly these few days mainly to travel to work-home, duration of 30-45 mins slow drive for 2 times per day.

Updates:
Check battery states this morning (Saturday). Still got 90% SOC.

On the other hand, I would like to seek for your expert recommendation if there's any external battery pack we can use for 70mai? I've been searching high and low for quite some time, but doesn't seem to get any trail on this.

I found your review in jwtech web, there is this battery pack "ElectroForce Force Zero DF-10", im not sure if it would be compatible and also if Sicurez still carry this product.

Please help enlighten if you have anything that can provide heads up. Thanks in advance.

You can check with Sicurez is there is a compatible external battery that would work with other dashcams besides Blackvue or Thinkware, etc.

Can turn On or OFF in settings.

Carpark mode got few features, most power hungry one is timelapse where it took 1shot per second, continuously. Not suitable for long hours parking as it constantly drain battery.

Another option is AI mode, where it only record for 30seconds upon detected potential threat.
*
No matter which parking mode. Will still need to see how reliable is the voltage cutoff protection on the 70mai.

The testing methodology is crap. Thinkware can lose to 70mai sweat.gif sweat.gif sweat.gif

Some more they charge USD250 per device assessment.

Hi, I installed Thinkware X700 in October 2019 at Sicurez. I think it's dying (or already died). Sometimes it can turn on (green light on), sometimes it tries to turn on (red light on) but stays that way, sometimes it just restarts while driving, etc.

1. Is this 4 years of life acceptable for a dashcam?
2. If yes to question 1, any suggested model for replacement? Must have front & rear camera, parking mode (motion sensor and force), GPS, ADAS, speed trap camera warning, can hardwire to the car battery.

Was thinking of getting another Thinkware, but open to other brands since I haven't kept up with the latest models. Budget below RM2k.

Thank you
*
It's considered ok since you've been using for 4 years. Finevu GX300 is a good replacement.

Trapo has launched its first ever dashcams, the i-SIGHT T-550 and i-SIGHT T-350. Both of which offer advanced features such as high-resolution recordings, voice-activated commands and built-in GPS, and are also powered by super capacitor battery technology.

Now we have another dashcam that is using super capacitor👍 can't wait to see the review upcoming.

rebranding is ok as long as the hardware is durable.. and useful app haha

this is interesting. i'm tired with bulky dashcams

QUOTE(darren_yuri @ Sep 29 2023, 12:15 PM)
It is OEM, which means anyone can slap their brand on the product.
The app also can put its brand logo inside.

But the price is very competitive.

Like that get DDPai better. Not a rebrand dashcam. Price also competitive.

Are old cars advisable to use dashcams? Will it be stolen? if say the car has a manual key lock/unlock without alarm system.

Get something discreet. Nowadays many dashcams out there.

Last time, I saw before a car with smahed windows and the dashcam taken but now rare d.

Dear all, for 2-channel cams, does each of the recordings of front and rear cams start and end at the same time for the files stored in sd card?

Let's say for this particular video clip, the start time of front camera is 2:45:00 pm, will the clip from the rear cam also starts at the same time?

Asking because I am currently running separate cams for front and back, so getting synchronised files is an added step. Thinking of upgrading to 2-ch for ease of video retrieval.
*
Yes they starts recording at the same time.

Dear all, is there any service provider in Malaysia that knows how to install/set up full, all-directions recording that protects us even from the sides?

Something like the product below (it's called Black Box My Car, but it's only available in the US):

Ive been using Samsung Pro Endurance 256GB on my Viofo A139 for a year now - no problem. Previously it was "recommended" card
Sandisk Max Endurance not sold by local sellers but can find from overseas sellers in Shopee.

Sicurez does endurance test with their dashcams, micro SD cards, etc to make sure their dashcams is without any issues.

They are not just there to sell dashcams.

I recently installed VECARO ts10. After 3 days.. it stopped working... it's like white backlight with nothing on the screen. I used a simcard ejector to press RST and its working fine now.

I'm having 2nd thoughts now coz it's pretty new to act this way.

Hi all
Can anyone recommend a dashcam mount that allows rotation as what was done in the above video thread?

Googling online, I found many suction type designs on Lazada/Shopee etc but from experience these suction type mounts can’t last long in Malaysian weather

Any recommendations please  ?

That's looks like the 70mai Omni

But its only front cam

The new DDPAI N5 Dual seems pretty good.

Front 4k + Rear 1080p
Super capacitor

However couldn't find any info about the sensor being used.

This N5 is slightly priced below the Z50.

I know Sandisk Ultra is a big nono when used in a dashcam laugh.gif

If not wrong, the Samsung Pro read/speed is faster than the Sandisk Extreme.
