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...
I've noticed a large number of preventable Dash Cam failures being reported. My long Troubleshooting Guide doesn't cover everything but with input from everyone it can be continually updated to include new tests and fixes. Starting with simple verifications for all accessories such as microSD...
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...
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?
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...
I have Papago P3 and GW-1C, both with capacitor.
I have nothing but problem with both. Sometimes it starts and corrupted files etc.
The Papago consistently does not start till a few blocks away.
I suspect both has problem with capacitor. I have both GW-1 and the C models.
I assume both have...
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...
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...
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...
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...
Hello guys, I am new here, but I've been reading the forum and would like to ask for your help.
Here is what I am looking for in my first dash cam:
- Under $150 (preferably less than $100)
- Discreet (risk of being stolen)
- Can stand high temperatures (I live in Rio de Janeiro, so expect...
Right now on GearBest you can get the A118-C (capacitor version) for $49.99 with free shipping.
I just ordered one, so I can't really vouch for them but I post as the promo only runs in 6 days.
You'll have to use this link otherwise it'll be $55.
Found this on a turkish forum
Hello,

My car is parked daily in the street around 10 hours/day, mostly exposed to...
