Hi guys,
I'm a newcomer to the world of dashcams and am looking at the Mobius with an 8-inch camera extension t o be mounted discretely. I have just looked at a review on the joovuu website which is causing me concern.
It is the second review: https://joovuu.com/gb/action-cameras/83-mobius-standard-lens-car-camera-pack.html
"So now the little gripe, the last recording in progress is lost while auto recording if the external power is lost(Switching off vehicle) and after playing with all the different options cannot fix that. I am considering building a delay switch into my aux power socket that cuts power to the socket after just over 5 minutes to allow me to complete a 5 minute clip before it is lost.To overcome this at this stage I need to remember to manually stop the recording before I switch off the engine, if involved in an accident I will most likely not think about that plus I would like to have some footage after exiting the vehicle"
is this true? Doesn't the internal battery kick in? Surely, most people will (maybe without thinking) switch off the ignition in the event of an accident.
Please advise me in order to put my mind at ease, or to explore other options. Thanks
