I believe I have the 801 model, its about 2-3 years old, worked fine. Lately the red light starts flashing, but it flashes extremely fast. In the past it would flash red, equal to the speed you could count in a normal (average) human talking speed. Now, when it does flash, you can't count as fast as it flashes.

When this happens, videos are not recorded or complete.

I thought it was the battery, I just put another one in, still flashing, checked the old battery, voltage was 3.89, so there was probably nothing wrong with it.

Anyone else run into this?
 
Good idea. I bought it on eBay, could be a knock off. I'll find the box and see if they have a website and see if they have firmware available.

I also may also try a different memory chip, format it with unit, and go into the date setting and reset it back 2 years to fool the firmware to think its brand new.
 
The unit is in the car, I'll go out and get it in a bit, thank you.
 
Sorry about taking so long, my busy time for work.

if a new battery and different memory card didn't help there's not much else you can try really
 
Its a knock off. I'll be more careful on my next purchase.

Thank you for your help.
