Do you know how much storage is used per hour on 1080p30?

Hey everyone. I received my cam last week, and I'm very impressed with it. Video quality is good, it is compact, and I love the wifi feature. However, I do notice that it heats up fast, not sure if this is just from the power or if it is the sun. I would like to know how much storage this uses...

I think I'll just mount it under the rear view mirror, on the passenger side. My cam came with a 3M sticker, but I contacted the conpany, and got a suction cup. Do the suction cups work well, because that's what I plan on using. Thanks!

Do you think a suction cup mount for the cam would stick to the dash? I haven't recieved mine yet, or else I would check.

Now I'm slightly worried. I'm driving through 4 states, so I'm not sure if I'll be able to check all of the local laws. Is there any neutral place that I can put the cam, so it's hidden? ;)

:) I think I'll just mount it where i said, hopefully it won't be noticable. Where do you mount yours, if you don't mind me asking?

I think it would be ok if I mount it near the rear view mirror, don't you think? Probably as long it's not in the middle of the windshield.

Also, if you plan on doing any testing, see if you can check the size difference between using audio and muting. I'll run some tests when I get mine. Thanks!

Thanks! I'll keep you updated when mine comes, on Saturday,

I appreciate everyone that helped me in this thread!

Ok, thank you for all of your help, for now. :angelic: I really appreciate it. I'm sure you will hear back from me, and if I have any me questions about this dashcam, I'll post them on here.

Ok, since I already purchased the cam, do you think there is a major difference between having capacitors, and having a battery? Anything besides the heat?

I also got the 2yr warranty just in case of any issues. Do you if the Yi has capacitors, just to confirm?

Ok. Thank you for the help. I'm actually checking out on Amazon now. :happy:

But, will I still be able to get my full 8hr? I'm mostly concerned about that.

So, once it reaches 4gb, it will start recording with a new file, and keep the old file?

There isn't a black dotted area on my car, but I know where it would be. Thanks for the picture. Is yours a suction cup, or a 3M sticker?

Well regular driving I wouldn't need 64gb, but I'm going on an 8hr roadtrip, and I want to make a timelapse of the drive, so I won't be looping the video. After my trip, I will use it regularly. I asked this before, but does audio recording heavily impact the file size? If it will save alot of...

Do you think that I can get over 8hrs with a 64gb microSD card? This was the responce to an Amazon comment. Also, do you think audio will make a large distance in file size? Does that seem about right?

So, on the mirror bar, in the top center of the car? That is where I plan on mounting it. Does the Yi come with multiple mounts, or just the 3M stick? Aloo, I don't plan on keeping the LCD on.
