Nice. You can raise the front cam angle a bit as your front hood is covering half of the screen.

Something like this where the yellow line is the bottom of the screen.

I don't think there is an IR only dashcam. A129 Duo IR or maybe Yi home cam? Saw a taxi installed for in-cabin recording but not sure it will record though.

Ok noted. Thanks for your advise. Appreciate it.

so it is advisable to buy the viofo hk3 kit (i saw about RM68 on shopee) vs some random wire from car accessories shop?
The shop guy did advice against parking mode, say will drain car battery if not using car 3-4 days. Is this true? I do tend to go outstation 1-2 at a time occasionally, will hardwire be an issue?

RM32/=

Hardwire is actually using a fuse adapter to the fuse box without cutting any wires in the car. Technically this does not void warranty.

Another thing to consider if you are using parking mode or not. If yes then you'll need to use the HK3 hardwire kit with fuse adapters to the fuse box.

If not using parking then use the ciggie port to power the A129 Duo when you start the car only.

Well for China dashcam hardwire kits, the cutoff protection are not 100% accurate like Korean dashcams or there is none.

For Viofo, the cutoff protection is not perfect yet but not as bad as the other no brand hardwire kit I guess.

Only get it if you want buffered parking mode. Else just use the ciggie port to power the A129 Duo.

Can I use others brand hardwire kit to Viofo A129? Any recommendation Korean or reliable hardwire kit that compatible with Viofo?

Just left 2 days my car using Viofo A120 Pro with parking mode + Viofo hardwire. My car battery drain to 0....can't start.

It's recommended to use back Viofo's HK3 for A129 and A119 v3.

Korean hardwire kit doesn't have the batt protection in the hardwire kit as it is built-in inside the dashcam itself like Thinkware. But not all Korean hardwire kit is the same also.

Did you set the voltage cutoff on the HK3 hardwire kit? Set parking mode for 24 hours only and 12.4v cut off..

There is another option which is to add a battery pack like the DAD50 but not cheap. At least your car battery won't be flat in a few days.

Yes set to 12.4v but no 24 hours option.
