For me, its always capasitor rather than battery.

For all the fear of bloating or exploding batteries, my very first gen, the model that is the birth of 70Mai company, bought from Kickstarter, BOTH DashCam s are working fine battery no bloating no issue.

Even the Huper Optik tints are degraded well past their 5 years warranty.

My car (and DashCams) are on their 6th year ownership.

You still don't understand what is reserved the right to void, isn't it...it is up to them. You mean to tell me you still doubt they reserved their right to void warranty sweat.  sweat.gif
You are arguing on absolute case that are known. There might those that are not reported online. We don't know. Maybe none.

Ppl are asking if installing 3rd party connected to fuse and obd, can void warranty or not. That means they wanted assurance 100% no void warranty if install.

We are talking about legal point here. From the beginning I am saying "car manufacturer reserved the right to void warranty".

Does that means 100% void if install? I never did say that. I say they can void your warranty (at least on electrical) if they caught you installing and reported to HQ.

SC would likely never report to HQ unless they have to make a warranty claim related to electrical system thru their system, then it is up to them to report the condition of the car related to the warranty claim parts or related section.

I reiterate, the question ppl are asking is if there is a risk of voiding warranty, we say yes, they is a risk even if it is 1%, while you cannot say 100% would never void warranty. The legal clause are there for car manufacturer to reserved the right to terminate certain warranty.

Many installed also no problem, right!!! I also install 3rd party tint and risk voiding the motor warranty. Still I knowingly do it acknowledging that there is a risk but not likely to occur. If occur also maybe no void but there is a risk of voiding the moment I install them. I risked it cause I can still afford to pay for the motor if really kena but if it is related to car electrical and OBD that are even kena car ECU, the risk is too much for me. So I don't take the risk but many do and no problem with that. Legally tho, they are running the risk if get caught.

You can say unplug OBD and remove the dashcam before go SC. Yes, you could, as I say if get caught. That means you are still running a risk to void warranty, that is the main point of what ppl are asking. You can say install lar, if got problem, unplug and remove b4 you go. No problem with that. Still does that not mean acknowledging that if you keep it there during warranty claim related to ECU system (OBD) and electrical, there is always a risk of voiding warranty.

Many dashcam OBD have pin only for the electrical current but exclude the PIN connecting to ECU or other system but don't be surprise some do. Surprisingly DDPAI FB, got ppl kena unstable car system then P2 SC asked to remove DDPAI OBD for the newer axia or some newer car coz it affect the car system. It could mean the dash OBD does somehow access the diagnostic ECU or something, we really don't know. 

I think I let you interpret for yourself the clause in warranty manual. Maybe you can determine 100% won't void based on the clause. Then you are the boss. I admit defeat.

This post is absolute truth and fact.

Any non additional items from the original manufacturer (that includes DashCam) are at risk of voiding warranty

Period.
