Features
G-Sensor
The built-in G-sensor measures
acceleration changes. This allows the cam to detect an impact or collision. If it senses something, it’ll lock the video in the Event files to prevent overwriting it.
Loop Recording
This feature ensures that you’re always recording and never miss anything important. When the microSD card is full, the camera will start
overwriting the oldest videos to free up space for the new ones. You don’t have to worry about deleting something important, the G-sensor looks out for that.
24 hours Parking Mode
The cam will automatically enter this mode when you turn off your car.
Motion and Collision detection are always on the alert for any movement. For example, if your vehicle is involved in a hit-and-run or someone scratched your car, these features will detect it.
The dash cam will save the five seconds before and 30 seconds after the event.
Vantrue also offers
Low bitrate and Low framerate recording. With the former, you can save hours of footage as small files when you record at 1080p at 15FPS or 720p at 15FPS
to save space on your card. With the latter, you can record video continuously at a low frame rate, such as:
However, the cameras must be
hardwired to the car to use this mode. The bad news is that you need to additionally purchase a hardwire kit.
Supercapacitor
Instead of traditional batteries, Vantrue put its money on supercapacitors. This advanced form of battery ensures that the cam stays in its best condition, no matter the weather.
They can withstand
extreme temperatures from -4°F to 158°F. This extends the life of the camera and makes it more reliable. As good as this sounds, the reality doesn’t always match up. I used the dash cam system for a couple of hours, and the camera started
overheating. This didn’t cause any troubles with its performance, but it may affect it in the long run.
