    Not only scarring, but eating them! I have various recipes for bear meat.

    A139 Pro dual-channel worked for five months, now it can't record and is in a reboot loop

    Two cameras in this thread cooked by sunshader or sunvisor. It is impossible to destroy two A139 Pro 2CH in such a short time. We should ask @VIOFO-Support to show us some pictures of the interior of the first returned dashcam to see if it was cooked inside. Only in this way we will know what...

    Upgrade A229 Pro 2CH to 3CH

    If you are not 100% that you will need interior camera just buy now the 2CH version. As it is written above, when using 3CH the front channel bitrate is going down by a lot (from 60mbps to 36mbps) and this means the front image will be not so good as in the 2CH version. And you said you want...

    Dash cam with zoom capability

    I have no problem to disagree with me, you should not be sorry if you are on the right side. But I live in a non-english country surrounded by average people, almost nobody of my friends will understand what I want to say if a video was recorded with a telephoto lens. 1. We have a romanian word...

    Unit Gets Warm

    As other people said, the car registration plate is more important. You posted two snapshots 7.png and 8.png which are not helping concluding if Mini 2 HDR is better than A229 Plus HDR. I was zooming into both pictures but I can only guess that the Mini 2 legibility is better. But in those...

    Dash cam with zoom capability

    Even zoom is an english word, many people outside english world are using the zoom word instead of telephoto. When you say to somebody that some video is a zoomed video but which in reality was recorded with a telephoto lens they will easy understand what is about. But when you will say that it...

    whats better? A229 Pro or A139 Pro

    For sure not, not enough time to release a new model! I recommend A229 Pro, you don't need to wait for the next Viofo flagship because it can not add nothing really important, or something shocking. Right now I would buy the 1CH version of A229 Pro and I will wait for secondary cameras additions.

    To remove or not to remove the dashcam in hot weather

    You can never compare the harsh conditions for a dashcam with a smarphone. Just keep your smartphone 4 years on the dashboard under direct sun and you will have a surprise. The 4K dashcams are the most exposed to damage electronic product from an average user. Not the TV, not the fridge, not the...

    HK3 hard wire kit - terrible voltage regulation

    I still don't believe this. It is almost impossible Viofo to send you 3 or 4 hardwire kits and all of them to be broken. Maybe Viofo can have 3 or 4 bad units at 1000pcs.? Just imagine that Viofo sent 3 or 4 bad hardwire kits exactly to a person who knows how to make such product. They not sent...

    HK3 hard wire kit - terrible voltage regulation

    To test it, to see if the new version is better than the old version. I am testing things for more than 10 years on this forum. As I said, I will keep the old HK3. At this moment I have 4 hardwire kits installed on my car, one HK3 and three HK4 which will be replaced with HK5. On 3 hardwire kits...

    HK3 hard wire kit - terrible voltage regulation

    Seems that the horrible title of a good product was used for promoting a personal product which finally failed as a project. Again: good means that is not creating problems to the dashcams or to the cars and RMA, DOA, returns are minimal. If my HK3 hardwire kit from Viofo is working as expected...

    The list of shame fake 4K dash cameras Ultra HD

    I hope you have at least a good FullHD camera to compare the recorded videos. :cool: There is something strange, seems that they sold all cameras!!! If I copy and paste your link this is the result: But if I will click on your link this is the result: But on amazon.com I could find it here.

    viofo.com

    For a company like Viofo I expect they to return the money for the shipping if is camera fault and not user fault. But I don't expect the user to accept to pay the shipping when Viofo will say that was their fault. More than that, there are cases when Viofo is sending a new unit to the user and...

    viofo.com

    All Viofo dashcams sent from viofo.com are verified before sending. The buyer (likely) never receive a DOA product. So what can it be wrong with the purchase? This: And can be another problem: user damaging the product during installation. After some time and after my reports too, Viofo started...

    viofo.com

    Buy local to avoid problems. In some countries the seller is accepting to pay also the local shipping if the return was done in 14 days. But if you will have a business, for example selling TV or refrigerators will you be happy to pay the shipping cost which is not small in such cases and to...
