Camera: Viofo A129 Pro Duo
Hardwired HK3
I've been reading similar threads throughout the last couple years but noticed Viofo never addressed the problem. I've been working with Viofo the last couple months since I bought the camera and they've continued to tell me this is a firmware problem that they'll try to fix next time. I checked back with them recently and they told me they didn't have a new firmware available (even though there's a new beta 2.10T in the firmware thread). The last communication from them basically said due to global warming and heat streak their 4k cameras are malfunctioning... seems more a hardware issue that they are unwilling to admit to. The only suggestion from Viofo was to basically downgrade this camera with lower bitrate and resolution which essentially defeats the point of a 4k camera, I might as well have bought a lower resolution camera.

Question: if anyone is having this, is there a way to hack the firmware to have an earlier high temperature cut off? Just seems like the camera is holding out too long.
Anyone having luck working with Viofo to exchange cameras?

A129pro duo overheating and reliability?
I have a A129 Pro Duo installed and I'm honestly not impressed by it's overheating situation at all. I have it plugged in directly to the camera, yet it overheats easily even on mild days while parked. I'm in Sydney and it's been overheating even in 30 degree days. I even reduced the...
