I have been testing Mobius for few weeks. Overall I like it, especially tiny size which allow discrete installation.
As per front camera, I am using other dash camera which is much better at night, but for the rear I am planning to install a Mobius due to its tiny size.
Also I will add a demo video from mobius day time recording mounted at the back of the car.
IDEAS:
I have few ideas on how to install Mobius in rear for most discrete result.
I will share all my ideas in 4 posts due to too many pictures.
FIRST IDEA, - using special Mobius lens extension cable to built in lens into the centre of rear brake light. Main Mobius body can be left inside car for menu buttons and memory card access.
Why into brake light ? - this is most discrete location for camera lens. Also, for cars which have tinted rear windows, they can leave out of tint rear brake light, this way giving clear rear windows view for much better video quality recording. ( brake light can be also tinted for better overall match ).
Below I did some "photoshop", just to show how the effect would look like. I did not had much time to do full project, so just wanted to share my ideas with others, who might find this idea useful and have time to implement this idea.
Also as above mentioned ( for cars with rear windows tinted), red brake light can be slightly tinted to match overall rear windows tint-look.
Here I am using extension AV cable connected to my car multimedia to aim Mobius camera angle.
