    Vantrue n4s pro - parking mode settings

    Hi, I bought the N4 Pro S and have a question about the parking mode settings. I've read that the camera takes an unusually long time to wake up after detecting an impact, so long that it may miss the event. Do you have any suggestions on how to best set this up to buffer the recording? I...

    best model in parking mode and key scratch prevention on the sides for a ev model

    hello, To prevent scratches on the sides, isn't a model with 3 channels better? So I think either viofo 229pro 3ch but there are 3 cameras, or the dr970x ir plus which only has 2 cameras (I think) and has a function to also see the interior of the car and therefore the sides. I think in a case...
