I made a small video about A118C which I received from GearBest where is sold as Viofo A118C:
For me the biggest question was what is the start recording delay time of the dashcam because I have some korean cameras with the starting time of about 30 seconds and more. The advertised starting time of A118C is about 8 seconds but I obtained 12 seconds because I measured the time when the dashcam is starting recording. Maybe the 8 seconds startup timing was in some previous firmware or it refers when the camera is showing the boot "Welcome" image. I have installed the firmware from 8 January 2015.
I don't consider these 12 seconds to be a big problem for me because I am not moving my car very fast after I started the engine.
The battery version of A118 have start-up recording time for about 3 seconds.
Here is a picture from camera inside, you can see the capacitors.
