    Can a Low-profile mini fuse be replaced by a mini fuse?

    I looked through the owner's manual of the vehicle -- Nissan Maxima 2012 -- and it states that a low-profile fuse could be replaced by a mini fuse without affecting performance. Thnx for the response..

    Can a Low-profile mini fuse be replaced by a mini fuse?

    Is there any caveat to replacing a low-profile fuse with a mini blade one when trying to hardwire a dash cam using an "add-a-circuit"? I was looking to buy a small batch amount of "add-a-circuit" for future installs...

    Is it safe to route dash cam wires around side air bags?

    I was looking into possibly helping a friend install a dash cam in their vehicle that also has a rear camera. The vehicle is a 12' Honda CRV that has side airbags across the A,B and C pillar. I was wondering if it was safe routing the cable through the roof liner on the driver side towards the...

    Need dash cam advice to record the interior -- Ride Sharing

    Thnx for the heads up... Not a bad all in one solution... Although I am satisfied with the Rexing V1 as my front cam.

    Need dash cam advice to record the interior -- Ride Sharing

    As a part-time gig, I do ride-sharing on the side. It's well known in the driver community that Uber tends to side with the passengers story most of the time for PR reasons. And with the various sexual assault cases on the news recently by ride sharing drivers, everyone is on alert. Thus, I...

    What hardwire kit

    You misunderstood my previous post. I don't use parking mode on my dash cam. I leave it disabled because it often creates false positives. Instead, whenever am away from my vehicle in places such as the mall or a parking lot, I use the toggle switch to power the dash cam via constant power so...

    What hardwire kit

    I won't say your "wrong" per say but it is important to consider other vantage points. In your case, you clearly fancied all the added features that come with the PMP so the $10-17 was a steal. Personally, the only feature I would care for is the battery prevention. I don't use parking mode in...

    What hardwire kit

    As you said, to each their own. But I would like to point out that IMO, after taking a look at the form factor of the Power Magic Pro, mounting it (in order to have seamless access to the built in toggle switch) could be a challenge on certain vehicles where dash layout design doesn't allow for...

    What hardwire kit

    As @Yooshaw already pointed out, the reason some of us choose to use these "dumb" hardwire kits is for a cleaner install that doesn't require sacrificing a cigarette lighter. I would also like to add -- in response to your point about choosing btw ACC and constant power -- that in my setup I...

    Street Guardian SG9665GC version to compare to the Rexing V1

    Nice try... But if revered pricey devices -- such as iPhones & Macbook Pros -- can be found faulty and thus need to be exchanged under warranty, then I shouldn't expect much less from a $100 dash cam... Any electronic device can have issues during production. The key is how often such...

    Street Guardian SG9665GC version to compare to the Rexing V1

    Those are definitely some stealthy installs. But ofcourse, this requires an "added" modification by the consumer. The Mobius by itself is still a tiny portable creation that serves its purpose. But as @kamkar1 put it, when we are talking about strictly mounting flat against the angled...

    Street Guardian SG9665GC version to compare to the Rexing V1

    As I told @russ331 , I didn't say the Mobius is a bad dash cam or sucks did I? If u read my comment -- which u quoted -- I stated that the Mobius' mounting in a vehicle isn't as stealthy as say the Rexing or Street Guardian SG9665GC wedge design. But I clearly stated the Mobius' smaller size...

    Street Guardian SG9665GC version to compare to the Rexing V1

    @Sunny, if I may ask, what vehicle do u drive? I have since wiped my lens (and cleaned the area around where the Rexing's lens focus from) & my daytime video looks much better. I do notice a lot of dash reflection going on and I believe that is the fault of the material of my car's dash. I wish...

    Street Guardian SG9665GC version to compare to the Rexing V1

    So now ppl who are satisfied w/ a product and go online to post their feedback in hopes of helping others w/ their purchasing decisions according to you have NOTHING better to do with their time? What are you, a grumpy 60 yr old in wearing diapers or sth? o_O My purchase of the Rexing V1 was...

    Is the NB402G a battery? Thanks for the advice @Sunny. I will clean it and take a look at the video after my next long drive (at least 20mins). Because right now, my video didn't look as clear as yours. I can actually make out the license plate in your snapshot. But the battery in my Rexing V1...

    Street Guardian SG9665GC version to compare to the Rexing V1

    Clearly you have an inherent animosity towards Amazon reviews (since u keep bringing it up ever since I pointed @jokiin to my review??) and although these days the system has been saturated by 5-ratings from ppl getting items for FREE/discount, there are still many that buy the items outright...
