    Max card size for mini 0803? 64GB or 128GB?

    This is good to hear! I will have to pick up a 128GB for my dash cam. I plan to be getting a new dash cam soon, and will use my 0803 for the rear

    Can you report people to police who break the law, if caught on dashcam?

    Guess what, you can do it! I never planned to use dash cam footage for reporting drivers like this, but I got so upset at a driver the other day I tried. At least in Virginia you can successfully use dash cam footage to prosecute another driver who is breaking a law. I was in stop in go traffic...

    Max card size for mini 0803? 64GB or 128GB?

    I've had the unhappy experience to buying several counterfiet SD cards on eBay that were advertised as 64GB but were actually all less than 8GB. If you bought it on eBay or somewhere else that you might of gotten scammed, you should consider the card might actually be at fault. I would still...

    Max card size for mini 0803? 64GB or 128GB?

    I am successfully using a 64GB card formatted in FAT32. I was curious to know if we could 128GB cards in these dash cams? Has anyone tried? I don't have one to test, so I would need to buy one, and that'd be a waste if it doesn't work.

    32G Class 10 card speed too slow... ??

    Make sure you buy from a reputable seller. If it's from eBay, then selling countrified and fake SD cards on there is ridiculous! I bought 3 different cards only to find out they're all counterfeited and corrupted. You should test your SD card with H2testw...

    Mini 0803 16GB and Invalid files

    Just an update: found at the entire problem for my "invalid file" error was the SD card! Turns out, selling fake + counterfeited SD cards on eBay is a big thing! 3 different sellers I bought from sold me counterfeit "Samsung" 64GB cards, which could only hold ~2GB of memory and then the rest of...

    Mini 0803 16GB and Invalid files

    Seems like the problem MIGHT be that my camera constantly is switching from the power source to the battery source due to the notorious bad connection these have with the mount. I am thinking that because it is switching so often, or maybe it still has a weak connection, that it is causing...

    Mini 0803 16GB and Invalid files

    I am also having problems with invalid/corrupt files being written to my external 64 GB sd card. It will record many clips 100% fine, but after a few they all go bad and are unable to be played but still take up space on the card. I've gone ahead and reformatted my sd card in fat32 and hopes...

    Mini 803 - Auto Power Off turns off after a few seconds

    A bug with the software I think. Mine is set for a minute and also turns off after about 10 seconds. However if you unplug it, and turn it on, the battery will last a good 20 minutes or longer. So, I know it's not the battery, it's the software that's causing it to turn off. Personally, I...

    How to fix the "mute mic" problem.. through the hardware

    This is a question. I've opened up the dash cam fine, but was sadly unable to locate where the mic is. I pulled out the speaker thinking the mic might have been also integrated in with the speaker, but I was wrong. I am looking to simply pull out the mic so that it doesn't record sound. I have...

    unable to use 64gb micro SD

    Does microSDXC work? Or does only microSDHC work in this dash cam?

    Red light or stop sign?

    I've seen it many times before. You should adjust your camera so that it shows very little sky. The sky will mess with the white balance. More sky = darker picture = harder to read plates. It might not look right having the view with a lot of dash but it is better. Make sure to have enough sky...

    Red light or stop sign?

    You really can't see anything if you're behind a big truck like that. I once ran a red light before following a truck like that, single lane, couldn't see the light. I would have had to be back insanely far in order to see the light. Also I have run red lights before that sit red for 8 minutes...

    The song kinda suits this collision

    Yeah that white car looks like he cut you off, turning right from a straight-lane. These are the types of people that should not be driving. And he doesn't have insurance either? Not surprising.. Good on you for giving the footage to the other driver

    Can you report people to police who break the law, if caught on dashcam?

    So as most drivers know, sometimes you get those people who will brake check you, cut you off so you have to slam on your brakes, tailgate you, etc etc. Many times there is no reason they are doing it other than they are careless, or it's their idea of having fun. One time someone started...

    U.S. Official To Start Dashcam User Database Because He Thinks They Are Associated With Russia

    Running mini 0803 24/7 - Hardwired

    What would the right camera for the job be? I was looking at the Panorama 2s but it seems like the GPS feature isn't very accurate and jumps around constantly. Still, wouldn't I run into the same battery issues? >> I am still a bit confused about the battery issue, some electronics like...

    What about motion detection?

    If it is constantly powered, why should the built in battery matter? Wouldn't the battery just never be used if it was constantly powered through my car battery?

    Running mini 0803 24/7 - Hardwired

    So the cigarette lighter for the power isn't good for my Honda civic, which only has 1 cigarette lighter which I already use for a FM transmitter to my phone. So. I'm planning on hardwiring it to my battery for constant power and to run the camera 24/7. My questions: 1) How much battery drain...

    What about motion detection?

    So the main problem is that it times out quickly and also takes a lot to get it to register "motion". That is a problem then. I will then think about running it 24/7 with a 64GB class 10 SD card. Any idea how much drain on the battery it'll use? Know of any ways to hardwire in an extra battery...
