Dash cam. yay or nay........?

[Deleted member 26818]

It says "requires SD card" so ill have to buy a separate one. Might have an 8Gig kicking around the house

I have a helmet cam, which takes a 32Gig micro SD card.
It lasts a few days, before I have to clear it.
I’ve been told it can take a larger size, but you need the 32Gig or smaller to initially set up the camera.
It can be set to automatically overwrite the card, and if you want to save a recording of an incident, you have to tap a button and it will then save what you record, and also the 3 mins before you tapped the button.

Unfortunately the battery life has started dropping off.

The unit also has BT so can be used as a headset for phone, intercom, sat nav, and even has a built FM radio.

we need that on the forum so we can effectively communicate with buzz, as long as it will work in Romulan space.

I have one of these Mini Spy Camera 1080P HD Mini Portable Cam Night Vision Video Hidden | eBay - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Mini-Spy-Camera-1080P-HD-Mini-Portable-Cam-Night-Vision-Video-Hidden/192879349837?hash=item2ce881504d:g:rHMAAOSwjMdZzg-9&frcectupt=true to catch the phantom p1553r who likes to use our carport on wet weekends.

I got mine for £41.99 on ebay (although it clearly came via an amazon seller judging from the packaging) but they regularly go for about £49.99 on ebay or amazon.

I like my dashcam, see stuff like this on a daily basis...

 

[littlespark]

P1553R? That’s your reg number?

I’m getting the Lidl dash cam tomorrow. Saw the same one in Halfords for 50

Its worth having one for the ties when an accident may go against you or end up as a 50/50 split costing you money, if you are self employed claim it against your tax, I hard wire mine in as you can get a 12v to 5V unit off Amazon/eBay for about £7.

Lotus fun, I have right of way. Sound turned off to save card space and may have been edited not to incriminate myself.

The Subaru one the Vectra driver lost his rear end and hit my front offside, if I had no dash cam then I would have been in the sh1te or out of pocket. He was a cab driver I offered him a cash deal he went through the insurance, I bet he now works in Tesco stacking shelves........

With more and more numpties on the road I think as dash cam is becoming vital.

Just look at this Muppet I encountered this morning:

I think they are jealous of all the BMW drivers getting the attention..
