    ODB2 power source adaptor.

    I’ve briefly looked into this option that am considering . Some of the negative reviews on Amazon for the OBD2 power adaptor claim that even in the off position it drains battery and causes flat battery. Is the vehicle dependent perhaps ? I ask because I know if I plug in my Carista obd2 error...

    To hardwire, or to not?

    Can I also use a ODB2 power adaptor to run this camera ?

    Can I use an ODB2 power adaptor to power the V3 camera ? Cheers

    To hardwire, or to not?

    I just tested mine it’s only on when switched. The 12v cigar socket.

    Using the A129 in 1080p mode waste of money?

    Thanks for the feedback. What concerns me is 4K recording and the sunlight/ heat in my region. I used an A119 for the last 5 or so years and it was solid.

    Using the A129 in 1080p mode waste of money?

    I’m currently short listing some cams and have a question. Would it be a waste of money to purchase the A129 if only using it in 1080p mode as compared to just buying the A119 mark 3 which I believe goes up to 1440p? Cheers

    To hardwire, or to not?

    Wow. Thanks for letting me know. All my life and many cars never had one remain hot all the time. Then again perhaps my dads Fiat 132 1800 GLS from 1977 did so

    To hardwire, or to not?

    If not using parking mode. Doesn’t the camera only power on when vehicle is in accessories or on position? And then turn off when vehicle is turned off? I was under the impression most of not all cigar 12v outlets operated this way.

    It’s a been over 5 years shall I upgrade or reuse cams?

    I had two Viofo A119 cameras installed in my truck during the last 5-6 years. I sold the vehicle and removed the cameras but not the hard wiring or mounts. I was thinking it might be worth my while to just get a new one. The main front camera the A119 served me well with no issues over the 5-6...

    Need a recommandation for dashcam

    Great thread was looking for something similar. Around 5 years ago I bought the A119 and the model after that forgot it’s name it was A119s perhaps. The later didn’t perform like the other. However both operated well under the Florida heat. Now that I’ve bought a new vehicle id like to get the...

    VIOFO's A119S

    Great. Hopefully mine will now that it found a good wife in a memory card ;-) Sent from my SM-N960U1 using Tapatalk

    VIOFO's A119S

    Fair enough. Like I said respectfully, the a119s was major fail compared to a119 which is going on strong for almost 2 years now I think. Real customer, real user. Sent from my SM-N960U1 using Tapatalk

    VIOFO's A119S

    Finally got my rear a119s to work. All this time it was fooling me and saying it was recording but it wasn't. ! You know red flashing record light etc. No beeps.. So to summarize, the a119s is very fussy about memory cards. The only legit memory card that allows it to work for me is the...

    Ok so I fixed the power loop issue

    Incidentally, both the monoprice USB cables work fine on the A119 but not A119S as discussed earlier. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

    Ok so I fixed the power loop issue

    So in essence both types of monoprice cables I'd bought didn't work. Bearing in mind, I had bought one type months back and a second type more recently per this thread. None worked except for the OEM Viofo one. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk
