You should set "Auto Power Off" to 10 seconds or more. If you have it set of "Off" then you may have problems when starting the engine.Hi.
Can you explain how can i use CAR DVR MODE (plug&forget) with cigarette lighter. I tried 1 time. So it starts recording when the plug to lighter and stops unplug. But after that i try to watch it. It said: No File. Its damaging the video i think.
Thanks.
When you have car mode on (auto on), it starts recording as soon as it gets power.Hi.

Have you got a good memory card? Might be worth testing it with h2testw.exe: http://www.heise.de/download/h2testw.html
Thanks for your replies. [emoji4]When you have car mode on (auto on), it starts recording as soon as it gets power.
You should see blinking red when it's recording.
Shouldn't damage the file.
What do you have it set for auto power off?
Do you mean remove the battery while using as dash camera?And one question more. For this CAR Mode. Battery? It needs to be off?
Do you mean remove the battery while using as dash camera?
...
Git1 have good heat radiating, I suggest you recording with the battery. If you found problems, please let me know.
Use the camera with the battery installed.Yes. Need i remove the battery when using dash cam with CAR MODE ENABLED?
I dont have any problem about heating yet. I asked for using CAR MODE with or without battery .
I am so sorry for my bad english btw.
I got what u said. Thanks again.Use the camera with the battery installed.
You may have some problems if it looses power while recording if there is no battery, it will not be able to finish writing the video to the memory card.
In hot weather with a lot of sunshine, it will help the battery have a long life if you remove the camera from the car when parked so that it does not get very hot, or park away from the sunshine. The battery is cheap and easy to replace so if it only has a short life because of the heat then it is not a big problem.
I hope you can understand that, don't worry about your English, there are people from all around the world here.
If you set the "Auto Power Off" setting to "10 seconds" then it will stop recording 10 seconds after you stop the engine. The default for Auto Power Off is "Off" which will stop recording immediately, but that can cause problems when you are starting your engine so "10 seconds" is a good setting. If you set Auto Power Off to 30 minutes then it will keep recording for 30 minuets after you stop the engine so might record an accident when parked at the supermarket but if you only make short journeys then the battery will empty after a few stops.I got what u said. Thanks again.
But If battery installed, will camera stop the recording -when stop the car?
I want that:
start engine : Start record
Stop engine : Stop record

Low light and Night screenshots:
The Sony IMX322 sensor in Git1 is very good in low light/night.
Git1 probably has the best night video among all my dashcams.
You mean day or night?In all the videos I can never read plates. In the raw video (not youtube ones), plates are readable?
You mean day or night?
License plates are readable in the day but at night, that dashcam doesn't exist as of yet.
I don't have SG9665GC nor MG380G to compare so can't say.SG9665GC and Matego MG380G have a good quality in night video: GIT1 is better in your opinion?
Out of those two pics, Git2 is definitely much better but the question was for Git1, not Git2.I have both cameras. Tomorrow I will post video comparisons day and night. After a quick look there is no difference between image quality, but people will judge the images. There is no competition between GitUp and Street Guardian because cameras are made for different purposes.
I was testing the Git1 as dashcam about 2 months in summer and was perfect. But on my windshield will be a dashcam not an action cam.

The camera positions and date on SG are not correct because I was wrong. I will record another videos.
enjoy,
