Okay to the point, I've ended up here as we got my stepfather a new camera for his van for his birthday. He's spent all weekend wiring it in, plugged it all in and somehow its cooked itself and no longer works...Mum's quite disappointed as it did everything he wanted it to. It was the Uniden Black box igo 850...it even seems to have killed it's SD card as well, far as we know it isn't a wiring problem...(plus reading reviews now turns me off this camera even if it was my stepfathers dodgy wiring...)
Thing is my stepfather doesn't want to undo all his good wiring to the back of the van to get another camera, so mum is trying to contact the seller to get a replacement...which most likely wont be possible. Anyway long winded story short, do any of you have any good advice on a good work van camera that has similar features to the uniden one if we were to replace it completely please? I am aware that it isn't likely to find a different cam that would plug into the reversing cam that came with the uniden so the wiring will most likely will have to be undone...
I've tried looking on ebay etc and to be honest I just don't know what I'm looking for, I know he wants great image quality day and night as he got hit not long ago, an included reverse camera would be nice, large storage capacity if possible but not necessary, GPS and speed recording is a must and if it can record both forward and back cameras that would be great.
Anything available that any of you could recommend with those features or more would be an tremendous help! For what he wants it for it doesn't need to be wifi compatible and connect with tablets etc, its only for a work van. Just need something good quality, and that will last in the sun etc
Thanks
