I drive often in a single lane road (Balwyn rd) Its a PITA as often jam packed. Some VIPs think speeding down a bike lane and trying to force there way back into the line is cool. Four plus on dash cam speeding up to a parked car and then sounding there horns to encourage people to be polite. Dash cam would have all Rego details - The Black Rangie ..... should I ????[biggrin][biggrin][biggrin] Have to edit a well dressed Defender with AHN on it is always polite. 90% plus are polite. Just a few Very special people out there[bigrolf]

I have so many dash cam videos, I'll have to share them!

Despite best attempts, I haven’t found any of my vehicles featured [emoji2957][emoji41]

I'm coming around to the proposition that too many / most dash cams have a programmed life around 2 years... regardless of price or even brand. My $70 cheapie died - again - by destroying the memory card, so it was dissected in mid-journey. [bigsad]. Replacement probably a cheap UNIDEN on SALE... The 'Bus' camera, a more expensive UNIDEN has developed 'Cognitive Aberrations', such as defaulting to One Minute file Size... Yes, 60+ seperate files per hour. And needing a phone to make adjustments is wearing thin... Yes, even expensive brands, - have a Black cloud hovering...if you get the drift.

Best so far was the VIOFO, strange wedge looking creature, but delivered faultlessly for > 2 years. Son sold the car with camera still installed....[bigsad][bawl]

And you need to pay $$$ for a decent card, eBay bottom of barrel stuff only suits music players, IMHO

Very hit and miss I think. Daughter and Son have gone through multiple units - around 2 years is about right, but the 2 in my car are very long lived - one is the company camera (it's a company car) and that was put in when the previous car was new - a 2017 Hilux and now in my Dmax and still going. Not great specs compared to new cameras but it does the job fine. It is part of a network we run and they are very reliable. I think we have around 40 cameras all in (multiples on most vehicles and up to 7 on the bigger trucks) and I've only seen one die in my time here. They are $1,400 a pop though so you'd expect them to last a while. I as run my Blackvue as it's easy to get footage off and that's in its third vehicle now and around 4 years old.

Check what AusPost uses. They have cameras all over the red vans.....

I had a Uniden thing. It was useless. Blackvue have a good rep, as Gav says. Often though, the biggest problem with them is the SD card. Need a good quality one, and they don't last forever. I have to replace the one in my drone regularly if I want to keep footage safe.

The one in my L322 wouldn’t stick to the screen. When I checked the suction cap, I found the loop at the back had failed. I super glued it up and that worked gor a while then the suction cap split. So I double-sided taped it to the screen. That worked.

Yesterday, the thumbscrew that locks the camera angle disintegrated so the camera moves from side to side with cornering forces.

Naturally, replacement parts are not available.
