    Red Light Stays On

    Yep, I also read that the Mobius 2 might be a step back. I ordered the standard model, should be here before we leave for Traverse City next week. Meanwhile, I'd still like to get my issue with this old Mobius figured out. I've tried two SD cards but neither resolved the problem. Now thinking...

    Red Light Stays On

    Thanks for the suggestions. I did try another card but still the red light blinks three times when powered up and then stays on (not blinking like it should). Nothing is being recorded. Also just noticed that the yellow light is also on. I've tried the reset button twice and uploaded new...

    Red Light Stays On

    The red light on my Mobius I no longer blinks when it's operating as a dash cam. Tried pushing the reset button but the red light is still constant (after blinking three times when power is first supplied). I have a capacitor installed and everything was working fine until today. I checked the...

    Guess I did something wrong...

    My Mobius I was working fine untill today. For some reason I've yet to discern, when I connect it to power in the car the red light now blinks three times and then the yellow light stays on. Nothing is recorded. I thought it might have something to do with the super capacitor I recently...

    GS1000 (orange) Erratic Behavior

    I like the GPS feature -- comes in handy when I want to return to old mining and ranch roads up in the Arizona mountains.

    GS1000 (orange) Erratic Behavior

    Okay, I can deal with that. Where do I go to buy a good-quality GS1000?

    GS1000 (orange) Erratic Behavior

    I've been trying for months to get my GS1000 to work as it should. Maybe I have a bad unit, not sure. Software version is 2013022203. There are days when it works great and then suddenly, for no apparent reason, it fails to activate when I turn the ignition switch to start the car. Instead, the...

    New SJ1000 Sports Cam, Never Used SOLD!

    This unit was purchased last month from Foxoffer and features the latest firmware (fixed a screensaver issue) and the new 3-button waterproof case. I ordered this cam for use in the car, but as the Techmoan review suggests, the mounting bracket for automotive use is very poor. I tried just about...

    GS1000 Orange Menu - Startup Problems

    Joklin, you were right all along. It was the power cable. Like you said, a cable that works with an older (blue menu) GS1000 might not work with a newer (orange menu) GS1000, even though the cables may appear to be identical. Thanks very much for your help.

    Good info about the power cables, thanks.

    GS1000 Orange Menu - Startup Problems

    I agree, the power cable is always suspect. In this case, however, it is working fine -- it powers up my brother's GS1000, no problem. The USB port seems fine as well; the camera starts immediately when I connect it to my computer. Very confusing.

    GS1000 Orange Menu - Startup Problems

    Thanks Joklin, appreciate the help. Motion detection is "Off" and I'm using the correct power cable, no problem. Anyone familiar with the firmware version number I referenced in my original post? Why won't this unit come on when the car starts?

    GS1000 Orange Menu - Startup Problems

    I bought a new GS1000 last week with the orange menu, but the firmware version number -- 2013022203 -- seems a bit unusual. Problem is, I'm having all kinds of issues getting this unit up and running. It does not start when I turn on the ignition (as it should, right?), and it stops recording...
