The shop tried can't format. SD card gone. Meaning SD card have a lifespan? Every year must replace ah?

Mine is into its third year of usage, still recording crystal clear images 24/7. :)

My guess, would be the same.

 

I have the 400 and 650s. And both are the same.

 

 

I am actually using my Finevu cable on my 650s.

Mine more fierce than you..

This video was recorded exactly 4 years ago..

2 years later, the lens got a little blur and hazy.

Then I did this cleaning.

Today, 4 years later, the blackvue 400G-II still works perfectly.

We heard of overheating, purple screen, hazy images.. nothing of that sort.

Just like any device, handle them with care and love ..they will give you years of operation.

Yes it does, mine currently do. But it hogs up a lot of data..so be wary of it

 

You also need a wifi dongle for it

I was told by my AD that the dashcam that they install is blackvue DR430-2CH. Any bro installed with this model and any advise on any problem encountered.

 

Understand is the very basic model and worthwhile to upgrade to better model?

 

Thanks in advance

His bros out there. I'm getting my new ride next week and planning to install blackvue 650 2ch or the latest 750 model with power magic pro. After going down looking around at the blackvue AD shop, I was told by one of the staff that if my car has i-stop, the blackvue will not work properly. Any bros here can share their experience about it?

Not sure what is I-stop but am guessing it is some device to cut off the power when vehicle is stationary. If so, you can always go with the Cellink battery then. I had the BV with Cellink B6 setup and had no error code whatsoever and recording works about 24hrs continuous recording when stationary.

Yup, it cuts of engine during stationary. My trip is usually from home to work and back home again. each trip about 20mins. so not sure if getting the cellink is useful. I don't think I'll on my parking mode all the time.

Hi guys, intend to buy Blackvue from online. May I know where can I get a tested and proven workshop to install. Not all workshop knows how to install. Previously asked a workshop to install and instruct him to connect to my power pack, in the end mess it all up.

 

Preferably somewhere in the West. Thks
