So, I have been using geofencing to turn off my dashcam when I am parked in my home garage and that has been working no problem. I updated to FW 2.2 2 weeks ago and seen the Low Power Impact Recording sub-option under Geofence setting. I tried it out yesterday and noticed on the memory card today that it made over 19,000 1 second clips of the dashcam recording of the inside of my garage overnight, with no movement or impact. Anyone else seeing this? Is there any other settings that need to be changed?

My setup/settings:
BP100
HK6 (Plan to remove that over the weekend because it is no longer needed with the new FWs ) Maybe the HK6 is messing with it?
SDD and SD card (Have the dashcam write to SDD for driving and parking)
Parking mode I use is event detection
No cutoffs

I'm going to remove the HK6 and try again and see if that is messing with it. You think the HK6 can be messing with it?

If you choose Low Power Impact Recording under Geofencing, the camera will enter Low Power Impact Recording parking mode instead of turning off as before once your car is parked in the area you set before if the GPS has signal.

How can I fix my Low Impact Recording under Geofencing because all my dashcam is doing with this setting on is making thousands of 1 second video clips. Records these 1 second clips only at the geofencing location. Other parking mode works fine, only Low Impact Recording under Geofencing is having this problem
 
Check options; check for a hybrid setup; check for outside motion/movement, such as passing headlights, swaying trees, rain, etc., that can be seen from the car's dashcam.

Frankly, I would revert back one firmware version and see if the problem continues to be there. If the problem remains, it could be damaged equipment or a bug.
