Dashcam full time recording while in park mode

[DashCaster]

Hi everyone,

I bought the Toguard C200 dual-channel dashcam and got it installed in my SUV recently. When I checked the recordings today randomly, I noticed that it had recordings from Apr 25- 28, but nothing for Apr 29 - 30. The card was full, and it seems it did not loop record. And no these recordings were not locked recordings.

I only drove on Apr 25th and after that the vehicle was parked in my driveway.

In the dashcam,
1. Parking mode - ON
2. G-sensor - Medium
3. Motion Detection - Off
4. Loop recording - 3 mins

Can anyone shed some light as to why this is happening? Does rain/ wind have an affect? Has anyone of you had any experience like this?

I thought the recordings happen only if there is a sudden shake/ impact when parked.

This is the one I bought : https://www.amazon.ca/gp/B08MPVDR65
Thanks in advance.

Was it a recent purchase?

Was it a recent purchase?

Yes, purchased like 1.5 months ago. But it's been hardwired for like 10 days now. I checked the recording only today, randomly.

Yea. Should have checked before.

If I get the following one, can I use the same cabling to install. I already got the existing one hardwired from the dealership.

That's a much better camera, not sure if your old power supply will suit though
