    Additional supercapacitors

    I have the A119, recording 1 minute videos in a loop. Having a small capacitor, the dash cam switches off almost instantly after disconnecting from the power supply. What I'd like to achieve is to keep the cam working for at least one minute after disconnecting from the main power supply (hard...

    a119 capacitor?

    When reviewing dashcams before I bought one, I saw that this had a motion sensor and was powered by capacitors. I assumed this meant that it would record when it detected motion even when it was not powered (ie the capacitors would act as a battery). I installed the cam in my honda with a...

    Will the 807 fit in the windshield mount of an 806?

    I'm tired of the batteries in my 806 and want to get an 807 for the capacitor. Can I just get an 807 and slide it in the 806's mount? Has anyone tried replacing the 806 batteries with a capacitor?

    Can't buy an 807?

    I was really looking forward to the 807 with the super capacitor. I don't have my 806 hardwired to a constant battery source and I always get a low battery warning and sometimes it won't record. I have to hard boot it to get it to record. I thought the capacitor would take care of the...

    Purchasing capacitor for upgrade?

    The battery in my G1W got so hot and bloated one summer day that it popped the case open. I waited for it to cool down and carefully removed the battery. Ever since it has been running with no battery, just plugged into the 12v adapter of my car. This works fine for every video except the...

    12-hour always-on parking mode from 4 cams. Is this do-able?

    The one and only electronics shop in town who might tackle the install doesn't have good cams, so I need to order something cost effective, yet...effective. My car was vandalized, and it's making me anxious that I don't have "eyes" on it yet in case they hit again. (Or in case they want to see...

    Suggestions for Dual Channel Dash Cam with Capacitor for Hot Climate?

    Hi, Folks, My RoadHawk HD suddenly crapped out this morning and won't power up after just under two years of great service. I'd like to replace it with a front/back camera option that uses a capacitor instead of a battery because the temps here are often over 100 degrees. Nothing seems to...

    Converting a battery-based dashcam to operate as a Super Capacitor-based dashcam

    Does anyone know if it is possible to convert a battery-based dash cam into a Super Capacitor-based dash cam system? I would be willing to add other electronics/electrical components to accomplish such conversion. My goal is to use the Koonlung K1S 2-channel dash cam (which uses a replaceable...
