- BlackVue DR970X Plus - 2ch with B-130X battery hardwired
I've got both the DR900S-2CH and DR750S-2CH in different cars and both have the usual great features but neither camera is outright better than the other.
The DR900S have excellent image quality and detail in the front camera, but very poor night vision camera, as it doesn't have a low light image sensor.
The DR750S have reasonable image quality on the front camera, but qually good night vision/low light quality.
For example - if my cars are parked at night somewhere, the DR900S just records very small lights of cars passing by or street lights in the distance but the picture is mainly black and virtually unusable, unless it's in a very well lit area.
The DR750S still show all the features of the scenery and you can clearly see people walking past and details of other cars driving by - much more useable night video.
As BlackVue have decided to focus more on fleet companies in 2019 and so far only plan to release the DR750X which is the same as the DR750S but with mobile data capability, the change of getting a good 4K dual channel dashcam with equally good night vision/low light quality is very slim.
Are there any alternative dash cams out there at the moment that provide;
- dual channel (front and rear)
- WiFi
- time lapse parking
- 4K front (whilst rear is also recording - some reduce quality if rear is in use)
- GOOD NIGHT VISION
If not already out in the market, due to come out in 2019.
Price isn't an issue - but I don't want to be running separate cameras, I'd prefer to have an all in one setup like the BlackVue (front and rear cameras).
I'll also probably keep the setup with the Power Magic Ultra B-124 running the cameras to save the life of the car batteries - as the dash cam connects to it with the cigarette charger.
