Hello,
I have two B1W cameras, and one of them has given me a recurring issue where it says "SD card slow speed".
It is powered through the cigarette lighter socket, which is hot with key turned on. The camera receives no power when the car is off. It does this approximately 1/10 times the camera is powered on. It will do it immediately after turning on. If it does not do it when I turn the camera on, it will remain silent for the duration of the drive.
The camera has given this message with two different 64GB Samsung Evo (the orange ones) and two different 128GB Samsung Evo Plus (the red ones). All four microSD cards test to full capacity with h2testw, and all four microSD cards work without issue in the other B1W, as well as in my Viofo A129 Duo. I can't speed test the cards accurately because my SD card readers are slow, so it seems like useless data (you will see numbers that are slower than the card might really be).
I'm sure you understand why I believe the camera is wrong and that the microSD cards are fine, because the other cameras are fine, and it's 4 different cards. Has anyone experienced this and found it was a camera defect, maybe dirty contacts, bad power supply, maybe a firmware defect in a specific version?
