    Looking for dash cam with night vision and large display (removable?)

    My dashcam setup in one of my cars is such that both the front cam (Aukey DR02) and the rear cam (Mobius with a modified lens) are both connected to my factory nav screen via a/v ports. The setup alows me to switch easily between each cam, stereo, nav, and other car and entertainment features...

    Looking for a Dashcam Expert

    Is there a salary range? I kid, I kid. Seriously though, read anything by @TonyM and @Dashmellow and you’ll be well on your way to expertise.

    Door dinger placement

    He doesn’t mention it in the video, but probably be wise to disconnect the battery before venturing behind that panel.

    Driver's window cop watching cam - Show us yours!

    I always use two front facing cameras, primarily for redundancy/backup in case one has some kind of issue (never happened). One camera is fixed-mounted/stealth-blended into my mirror assembly, and the other is on a swivel mount that can rotate almost 360 degrees. I can rotate that one for a full...

    Amazon Might be Finally Doing Something About Fake Reviews - Apeman Delisted

    Not that complicated to understand really. Fakespot’s code is clearly violating Apple’s policy (5.2.2) on third party software access without permission. End of story. Applies to everyone. Common sense shows you can still use their website to achieve the same result. Or use other apps that do...

    Amazon cracking down on fake reviews - Aukey Delisted

    No one claimed or stated anything about how Aukey grew from selling cameras. The post you replied to was clearly talking about how Wyze grew from selling cameras into a wide range of products. Quotes matter.

    Amazon cracking down on fake reviews - Aukey Delisted

    Interesting. When do you postulate this “obvious price dumping strategy and not a sustainable business model” will come to a crashing end for Wyze? I mean, their cams have only been at the exact same sub $25 price for every single day since they debuted 3 years ago, with millions upon millions...

    Amazon cracking down on fake reviews - Aukey Delisted

    Greed. Lol. Aren’t we ALL? One of my favorite quotes: “don’t judge others just because you choose to sin differently.” I recall you frequently calling out or accusing other companies for this, that, or the other thing. And I always respectfully asked you whether you were speculating, or...

    Amazon cracking down on fake reviews - Aukey Delisted

    Just saw this piece on one of the tech blogs I read and came here to post about it, particularly as I’ve bought Aukey dashcams and have posted positively about my experience. I strongly suggest everyone read through the original SafetyDetectives report and how they scoped this out (link inside...

    Aukey DR-02 lightning deal (A119 vs DR-02)

    Happy to share my experience. I think it’s a no-brainer, specifically because of the price point and warranty, As the warranty is uniquely tied to Amazon, I kinda see it as an Amazon warranty, i.e. if. you have a problem with the cam, claim your replacement, and if you get any flack from Aukey...

    First Huawei, now Hikvision

    First ... bwaaaaaaahahahahha!!! You have an idealistic bent that is kinda charming in an ignorantly naive sort of way. As they say, ignorance is bliss ... amirite? Second ... way to skirt REAL actual issues with some tired, irrelevant and generalistic platitudes. Third ... prove the stuff you...

    Tesla cams and ... um ... their “potential”

    For those don’t know, about a year ago a guy name Rich Benoit started a YT channel tearing down and rebuilding Teslas, giving us a fascinating, hilarious and at times disturbing insight into the philosophies and workings of the secretive company. You can get a better understanding of his journey...

    First Huawei, now Hikvision

    I would argue the problem with a Huawei and ZTE and the like is different in at least two ways. First, this is way, way more than about “your data”. We’re talking about massive infrastructure control and cyber warfare at a high level. Second, true Cisco and Nokia and the like may do the same...

    First Huawei, now Hikvision

    I get what you’re saying and I’m not trying to bust balls or be pedantic, but everyone cares about their privacy. If you truly didn’t, then I’d ask that you post your name, number, address, ss#, bank account numbers, account password, your medical records ... etc. right here and right now in...

    Aukey DR-02 lightning deal (A119 vs DR-02)

    For those interested in an update on the DR02’s functionality after 1.25 years of usage. I bought two of these things in late 2017 for $52 each and I have them both front-facing on my main car (one for backup/redundancy) along with a rear-facing Mobius (running strong 5+ years now) with a...

    First Huawei, now Hikvision

    This stuff is getting serious and real fast. All 3 major US carriers (ATT, Verizon, T-Mobile) have now completely abandoned all Chinese suppliers in favor of Nokia and Ericsson for their 5G network builds. The US/Canadian charges against the recently arrested Huawei exec (who also happens to be...

    The OWL Cam - developed by engineers from Apple, Drop Cam and Microsoft

    You should have detected a fan of facts. The vast majority of Android phones that are SOLD are on the low end, with the vast majority being in developing countries (for the record, I cheer, encourage and support developing countries; I’m just providing facts). Doesn’t matter how many high end...

    The OWL Cam - developed by engineers from Apple, Drop Cam and Microsoft

    About 2-3 years ago, I did something similar with an old Dropcam I was no longer using for its intended purpose, which is to say I placed it in my car, plugged into a USB power source, and connected it to my phone’s hotspot with ”unlimited” data (truly unlimited data transfer, but technically...

    The OWL Cam - developed by engineers from Apple, Drop Cam and Microsoft

    The vast majority of Android phones are sold in the low-end market with cheap or basic phones (which significantly skews those charts), to a customer base that’s not likely to pay for high-end products (I say that without an ounce of derision — it’s just fact). iOS slaughters Android in the...
