Well today it happned to me, as i was about to leave home inserting the sd card in the SG9665GC, resulted in a launch out of the still open car door.
And since the ground in the yard where my car is parked is loose stone from 1/4 golf ball size and down to gravel i had a hard time finding the SD card again, actually after spending 40 minutes on my knees on the stuff ( painfull and uncomfortable and a well know torture method ) i gave up finding the SD card.
BUT ! to my luck as i entered my car i took a final look down and there was the SD card between the pepples, i did see the SD card in the air when it launched and it did inicially land 1 M or so from the car, but it must have bounced back the same way it came.
So just to underline my old statement, if your dashcam use micro SD cards, please for god sake designe it so its as easy as possible to insert and retrive.
And using the nails is not a optimal way in my mind, a SD card should be able to get in and out of somthing with the press of a finger tip, and not rely on precision work using finger nails.
This is the first time i have launched a card and "lost" it, but i have done it many times where i just had to find it on the floor under my table behind me, or under the sofa next to the table.
