    Any regrets selecting dash cam models without GPS? (All my dashcams up to know have GPS)

    Question about necessity of having GPS in a dash cam. All my dash cams up to now have/had GPS. Now another of my Mini 0805 (or related models) dashcams is failing, it's not recording video reliably. I've had about five Mini 0805's (or earlier models) over the years in my wife's and my car. All...

    Dashcam mini protect video, press down button, press how long?

    Question about the Dashcam Mini 0805, to protect a video from being overwritten, how long to press the down button? I came across a scene I wanted to protect the 5 minute video from being overwritten, I pressed the down button momentarily. But on reviewing my files, don't have that scene. I...

    Any issues with airbag running wire down A pillar?

    I'm about to take our VW Golf for its first service since installing a Mini 0801. I ran the wire up the passenger side A pillar tucking the wire under the plastic trim next to the windshield glass. The VW service guys will likely see the camera and where the wires are routed. Have you been told...

    70 car pileup Wisconsin, USA. They just kept coming..

    You have to wonder what was going (or not going) through driver's minds when they saw (or didn't see) there were cars ahead that weren't moving and cars ahead where there shouldn't have been cars. At some points there should be what looks like a solid wall of vehicles completely across the road...

    CarCam P9000 variant. Hour long gaps in recording

    Hi I have a CarCamP9000 variant of the K2000. It generally works fine and the image is pretty good for 720p. I drove about 500 km yesterday and at one point came across several deer on the road so today reviewed the video segments looking for the segment with the deer. Of course the segment...

    Any clips or ways to hold power wire along windshield without disassembling trim?

    Hi, I have a new car (VW) with curtain airbgs on the front pillars. I'm reluctant to mess around with trying to take the pillar trim off in case I cause the airbag to not deploy properly. I'm wondering if there are such things as clips to hold the power cable? I'm thinking a half circle into...

    Mini 0801, 8 GB memory decision, needed if SD card is 32GB?

    Hi, I've narrowed my choices down with the mini 0801 as 1st choice. Question, if I include a 32 GB memory card in the order, is there any benefit also ordering the camera with the optional 8 GB internal memory? Am I duplicating memory I don't need? I'd order with the GPS option. If anyone is...

    LS300W or LS400W, how many button presses to enable parking mode?

    Hi, I understand the LS300W and similar don't switch automatically to parking mode once motion stops. How many menu button presses are required to enable parking mode? My current camera needs 8 or more button presses to work through the menus to enable parking/motion detection. One button...

    Using LiPo battery parking mode instead of voltage limiter

    Hi, I'm new to dashcams and have started out with a 1080 Cam-AP-P9000. I have a dual USB 3.1 amp cigarette lighter socket providing power to the camera through a USB cable. The power socket goes on/off with the ignition and the camera starts up and shuts down on its own so that works well and...
