    Do 0806 and 0805 use the same mount?

    Got an 0805 and fitted it yesterday, having trial-fitted it to both the 0805 and 0806 mount. Because of where I wanted to mount it, and the arrangement of the USB sockets on the mounts, I've gone with the 0806 mount and it seems to be working well (y)

    Do 0806 and 0805 use the same mount?

    Hi all, Been a while since i was here :) I've not replaced my 0806 since it bricked, but am now looking to replace it. I was wondering if I can use the other 08 cameras (especially the 0805) with the 0806 mount, or will I need the whole setup? Thanks!

    0806 won't unbrick...

    That's very kind, but it's more than two years old, so I think it is no longer in warranty?

    Not an option that's available :( I think I'm going to buy a new one, I can swap it between vehicles then.

    I have just tried with a data cable for Samsung Galaxy A3. Hold the UP button, then plug cable in. Blue and red LEDs come on. Camera screen stays blank. Nothing appears in Device Manager on the PC.

    Good question. It's the cable that came with the camera.

    I have done that and it still doesn't work.

    A118-C v A119

    Actually, I have just had a moment of realisation. I still have the mount and the wiring in the Panda for the 0806, but no camera. I have a second vehicle (a Citroen campervan) that has no camera at all. I'd probably be better served buying another 0806, fitting the mount and wiring from the new...

    A118-C v A119

    Thanks! Yes, I did have a Scorpio (and loved it) but it was too low for my wife to get in and out of comfortably (she has a bad back), so it had to go. Now I have a Panda...

    A118-C v A119

    Hmmm... Looks like I'm going for an A119 then!

    A118-C v A119

    Ah, I assumed that was just another part of the model number. So I should avoid ones described as B40?

    A118-C v A119

    My Mini 0806 appears to be bricked and unrecoverable, so I'm investigating options. When I bought it a couple of years ago, it was a toss-up between that and the A118, so I'm seriously considering one of the Viofo cams. I can find A118-C on eBay from a UK seller for £32, whereas the A119 is...

    0806 won't unbrick...

    My 0806 has been been acting strangely for a while, sometimes there is the quacking duck noise, sometimes it is constantly restarting. I checked the card today and it has been recording fine. So today, I thought I would upgrade the firmware (I haven't done this since buying it). When I put the...

    USB car charger for mini 0806

    I found the standard cable also too short for my needs, so I bought one of these: It works perfectly, the charger plug fits very snugly and is yet to come loose.

    Just one short journey last night...

    These three incidents all occurred on my ten-mile drive to work last night, along the A12 and through Hackney to Old Street in London. First up, a 50mph speed limit and a Gatso camera doesn't seem to deter someone... And numbers two and three happened very close together. Red light? What's...

    Hmm, everything fine driving to work this morning. Odd.

    New 0806 owner (well, soon anyway...)

    So...first problem has come to light. It didn't record *anything* today on two journeys. It's the first time it's been plugged into an extension, which I'm sure is working because I heard the camera 'power-up' jingle, and the LEDs were on, but that's the only difference to Thursday. I had Motion...

    No, the angle when he's in the inside lane mean it's not quite clear, and when he's in the outside lane he's too far away. I got most of it but I can't be sure.

    New 0806 owner (well, soon anyway...)

    I asked this in the 'Where did you mount your camera?' thread, but I think it really belongs here. Is it really important to use the supplied charger for the Mini 0806? It's taking power from a 12V socket into a 5V USB socket, but I have a number of much smaller chargers that fit, that I already...

    Thanks Nigel, I'll try that. No CPL, so I'll rotate it (the camera) slightly.
