Street Guardian SG9663DC (DC = Dual Channel)

[DT MI]

Not sure, not something I would try though

Hmm, now I feel a bit of a challenge coming on.

Maybe when I get my DC I can use a couple of my 'spare' A118C's as a test bed just to see if it's possible.

Edit: Is the communication between the camera and GPS one-way, as in the GPS data is pushed to the camera?... or is the GPS polled by the camera then responds?

I wasn't preparing a challenge, it possibly wouldn't hurt it but I'd still suggest not doing it, power is fed from the camera to the GPS

I didn't take it as a challenge from you - definitely self-imposed.

I didn't really think about the power aspects, just the communication. I'll forego any experimentation.

yeah not something I'd see any benefit in testing out

Someone here posted a video of their camera (with polarizing filter) looking through their tinted front window. It had a huge horrible rainbow moire pattern that obscured a lot of detail. Just something to be aware of when putting a camera behind tint film.

Do you know if the tint was darker? The tint I have is near clear and I don't have any of those effects, but I also don't have a polarized lens. Either way I will try and see if it causes any a weird effects.

It was a clear film

I have a rainbow effect through my windshield with 97% clear ceramic heat rejection tint and the CPL on my GC v3. It doesn’t obscure detail, though.

it's more of an annoyance than anything else, most often will be in the upper part of the video depending on where the sun is in the picture

They can be cleaned properly and even glass polished but the best is a new one

How is the testing of the hardwire kits going? Will they be out in stores by Xmas?

he means from the window film

I wonder if I’ll get my hands on a DC before my iPhone X I’ve pre-ordered. It’s like a race...

With both coming from China or at least Southeast Asia, it'll be close!

With the hardwire kit not releasing with the camera, is it better to wait to get the Vico-Power Plus when it is ready or it doesnt matter and I should get it with the camera? I want to be able to use the parking mode when/if its ready in the firmware.
