Not consistent, the dashcam, I fire and forget. It is only when I connect dashcam to cleanup....I get the multiple message of 12.4V shutdown happened on certain dates. Mostly ok tho...
BUT a big BUT is because I only use sleep in parking mode, for collision and vibration wakeup recording. If set as 12.4V with continuouse recording, I think most recording will just stop after sometime coz low batt..then sleep mode also takda. So I just switch to sleep mode, at least almost garantee got sleep mode emergency recording but even then occasionally still get 12.4V shutdown notification on certain days.
If I want 24 hours recording, I think I will have to go for external battery pack for the dashcam but to mafan for me. Prefer fire and forget for accidents.
Also nowadays, I practice changing battery every 2 years or so, even when it still worked. It is a waste, I know but I don't want to get stuck elsewhere (happened a number of times over the years) especially for cars driven by family (never want to receive call while working...say battery kaput, come help).
Most of my cars has VS (voltage stabilizer) installed (long time ago, still working perfectly even after a decade) and battery last way longer in general but VS has a weakness. Battery weak sometimes has symptom like headlamp dim, harder to start car...but with VS stabilizing, such symptoms are minimized. So when battery dying....we don't know until it died...especially cialat if start at midnight elsewhere (not home).
yea yea, I also switch to standby mode already... at least can do emergency recording. it will have app notification if anything. recently thunderstorm shook the car, got msg say collisions lol check check, lightning and thundercats.
