Hi,
Extremely new to this dashcam stuffs, am looking for front and rear dashcam, found MINI 0906.
Is it a good choice or is there any other recommendation (same budget range)
Saw some review on the B1W too, but is preety old version.
Anything newer with auto parking mode & uses capacitor?
Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

Wow. Need a hardwire kit cable for almost every dash.

Don't know don't simply give wrong info. Some more go tarnish Viofo's name.
*
May I know if Viofo 129 requires hardwire for parking mode?
Seriously looking for a dashcam that have parking mode ( motion detect) and capacitor build in but at lower pricing.

AFAIK, it will require hardwire for parking mode.
Lower price dashcam are like Mini 0906, which you can buy online from China for Rm400-500 with hardwire kit.
I used to have Mini 0906 on my CX-5 for about a year or so but changed to Thinkware F800 Pro in May this year.

OTOH, Korean brands like Thinkware, Blackvue can use battery pack instead of hardwire for parking mode.
But this dedicated battery park cost from RM1k to 2k depending on the capacity
*
Thanks for the info, Thinkware is too costly for me.
Is the MINI 0906 able to do parking mode recording (motion detect) after a year usage.. any complaint?
So far am eyeing on either B1W or mai 70 pro. Also considering the A129 as well.

If remember correctly, 0906 is timelapse parking mode.

Most China dashcams are impact parking mode or timelapse parking mode only. Not a "true parking mode" dashcam like Korean dashcams.

But June this year Viofo managed to get buffered parking mode working on their A129 series and A119v3. But not perfect like Korean dashcams.
*
Gee, looks like my choice falls back to Viofo A129 duo ( with parking mode / motion detect) Guess I will have to spend more time looking out for sales or promotion offer again.
Sad back on the A129 is the design is way too bulky.

I think the A129 size is almost like 0906. Did you see the actual dashcam? sweat.gif  sweat.gif  sweat.gif
*
Nope, only in youtube reviews and photos online.
Do you think the A129 duo will drop price after the launch of A129 pro 4k?

Just saw BlueSkySea store in Lazada...

https://www.lazada.com.my/blueskysea

BlueSkySea is 1 of the top dashcam manufacturers in China. They manufacture a lot of dashcam brands like Viofo, Mini, etc...

And even got their own dashcams: B1W and B2W.

Thanks, just followed them (hoping to get good deals ahead) brows.gif brows.gif

Currently, we don't have plan to drop price for A129 Duo, compared to some other models, this is still a fair price.

We haven't found another Chinese dual channel dash cam matches VIOFO A129 duo spec like duao band Wi-Fi, buffered parking mode, bluetooth remote control, dual sony IMX291.
*
Thanks for the info, mix emotion after reading your reply..sad cos no price drop ..happy to know is a good investment for me to invest in the A129duo.
Will keep a look out for coming promotion.

Fast-moving objects during night time are hard. Need to see.

Here's a sneak peek for this morning.

Hopefully, tonight don't capture any paranormals in the video recordings sweat.gif  sweat.gif  sweat.gif
*
WOW, video quality is top notch, think will do wonders during night time recording.
Please make sure you edit the "scenes" before releasing if you are capturing road side video tonight..with the new PRO very high possibilities of capturing what human eyes cannot see. sweat.gif sweat.gif
Price I hope won't go above 1k..some korean cams are around that pricing. thumbsup.gif

Just checked and it seems to able to detect and go into parking mode.

- Continuous shocks = car running = recording in Normal Mode
- No shock = camera in Parking Mode -> waiting for Motion in front of the camera to record a timelapse video or waiting for a shock to record in Normal Mode.

You'll need the 2 wires hardwire kit to power the A119 v2 when the engine is off.
*
Bro,
Confused over the 3 wires and 2 wires Hardwire kit. How does it work? Can I just use 2 wires for parking mode.

3 wires are to ACC fuse, Batt fuse, and grounding. While 2 wires are to either ACC or Batt fuse and grounding.

ACC fuse is to power the dashcam when the engine has started. Batt fuse is to power the dashcam when the engine is off.

2 wires if plug to Batt fuse for continuous power to the dashcam. But the dashcam won't know when to go into parking mode as it can't detect when the engine is off. That's why true parking mode uses 3 wires hardwire kit.

But Viofo A119 v2 uses motion to detect and goes into parking mode when no motion is detected for a certain period of time. So what if there's non-stop motion and prevents the dashcam from going into parking mode?  sweat.gif  sweat.gif  sweat.gif

Thanks, thats what I was afraid of (a fake SD card) cos they only said is a class 10. Bundle for 64GB for RM28.00
Appreciate your advise. I think I ll just skip the bundling and go with separate purchase instead.
*
From my experience buying online from China supplier (especially SD cards) you really need to check out their reviews before going ahead.
I am part of the statistic that was supplied with fake SD card or USB drives. blush.gif blush.gif
