ITB100-HD Capacitor Inside?!

[kay188]

I was going to do a super capacitor mod to the ITB100-HD like the Mobius has.

I bought the Mobius super capacitor and then took apart the ITB100-HD.

I thought it was a battery from the disassembly pictures, but it turns out there's already a capacitor inside...

I'm not sure, just assuming, but it seems like the later versions of the ITB100-HD were built with capacitors. Not sure about the first versions.

Supercaps were always there. Check overview made over year ago

This is great reliable dashcam, one of my favourite ones. The only drawback is low bit-rate ( original FW ). There is out a custom FW which has higher bit-rate, but not all custom is "the way to go", there may be some complications.

I can concur. I have owned 3 of them for more than 2 years. Or whenever they were actually launched, and they always had a capacitor.

Acutally, the overview does not show or state the camera used a capacitor. From what it looks like in the pictures, just a regular battery that was soldered onto the board. No where on the internet was it stated that it used a supercap.
