Hello, I have a problem with my Mobius, I have two cams (both V1), the first works totally fine. But the second one is giving me headaches. The auto record doesn’t work in lower temperatures.I use them as Dashcams in the front and back of my car. I installed the second one in summer so didn’t notice something was wrong.
With 10° Celsius the auto record fails very often and at or under 7° C the auto record works never and I mean never.The cameras use the exact same setup / firmware and cables (original Mobius cables) and Kingston sd cards and the same Car 12V to 2x 5V Adaptor.
The cameras are plugged into the adaptor via USB-Cables, I only plug the adaptor in once the car engine is started and the lights are on, so that there are no voltage spikes.I see that the camera isn’t designed to work at -20°, but common 10°C should be possible, my first Mobius auto records even at -15°C. I´m really upset because I paid 85€ (German seller).
First I suspected the Lipo because the auto record works fine under room temperature.I contacted the seller and he sended me a new Lipo and the Super cap, tried both no luck.
When I plug usb cable into the camera the led shows solid green, so it charges the Lipo and the Super cap. When full the green led goes off.
So it seems the camera doesn’t know that it is supposed to start recording, I also updated firmware and checked the configuration (msetup and syscfg.txt), and changed USB cables, adaptor and sd card.
The strangest thing of all is that when I hold down the power button while plugging the camera in the led blinks blue one time and the camera shuts down. If I then unplug the camera und plug it in again then the auto record works. But it sucks to climb to the back of my car every morning and in my lunchbreak to get that thing working.
I appreciate any kind of help, idea or solution. Thank you!
