    battery low and shutdown issues

    I could disassemble the charger and adjust the output voltage up 0.7 and tack in a diode. It is almost certainly using an LM317 or similar linear regulator. The current rating of 1.5A is the same as an LM317. Or I could try another adapter. I haven't bothered to try anything since I...

    battery low and shutdown issues

    Cause found I've isolated the cause to the car charger. If the camera is and connected to the charger, the battery runs down. Simple work around is to disconnect the camera from the charger. I will also try a different 12V adapter.

    battery low and shutdown issues

    I've confirmed the battery runs down when the cam is "off". Battery charges while it is recording and powered by the car adapter. Updating to the latest stable firmware V1.14 T2L-KH did not help. Not worth returning. Works well enough to use. I'll try swapping batteries but I doubt...

    battery low and shutdown issues

    Re: battery low The battery on mine discharges after two days. It may be that the battery is running down while the unit is "off". This morning I got a low battery warning when I turned it on but it was able to record for 40 minutes when connected to the car charger. I'm going to...

    Best Dashcam $100-$150 range?

    A good F500LHD clone is at the bottom end of your price range. I'm happy with mine. Debbie was surprised how well it works considering the price. There certainly are better cams for $150 - $200. Sample video clips cut from my first full day of use. Some scenes show the camera's...

    jokiin's A2S60 Dash Cam (GS1000 Based)

    Wish I had seen this thread before I ordered a F500LHD two days ago. I could have spent spent a little more money for a much better camera. Will you be posting product announcements on this forum? I'm interested. Whatever camera I buy next, it needs to be platform neutral or support...
