Car camera recommendation

[Adrianli]

Doesn't seem to be charging. With voltage but no amp.

Check the wire connected and fuse.

Hi everyone. My car came with a auto 4i black front and rear camera. I am using iphone and apparently the app is taken down. Is there a new app for it? Or any alternative app i can download to connect to the camera again? Please help! Thanks

[Adrianli]

I had the same problem on my new cellink Neo. I asked the installer to check and it was the wiring issue. It was loose, thus charging was intermittent.

Hi all, looking for a xiaomi camera front + back, with lane departure warning and collision warning. Hence the xiaomi 70 mai Pro comes to mind. 

 

But I also want to have a reverse camera recording during driving /parking and a display for reverse. Anyone can recommend a good combo? Budget < 300

Hi all, I am looking to buy 2ch dash cam. Any recommendations?

Currently considering Thinkware F200 & Iroad X5.

Do I need to consider external battery pack?

Have an IROAD V9 for sale. Used for three years but still very good condition. $220 with install.

 

Hella DVR820 car cam for sale. Brand new in box. $240 with install.

hoping someone can help...  I purchased a Xiomi 70mai camera with voice and Wifi (English version).   The first month went smooth as it was easy to install and it automatically connected to my phone every time I entered the car.   After about a month I noticed that the app was not connecting to the WIFI of the camera, even though in my phones WIFI settings it would show that it is connected.  I tried multiple hard resets and forgetting the WIFI network to connect and was unsuccesfull.  I went through multiple forums and tried everything but nothing worked.  I took another phone and tried connecting to it, and it worked..   I found that after updating my IOS software on my phone, it started to connect to my phones WIFI setting.   (contacting XIOMI support was no help as they declined to assist because I am in the United States and they do not support customers here.. found that strange).   The issue I'm having now is that since successfully connecting to the camera, it does not automatically connect to my phone every time I start my car.  I am having to always open up the 70mai iOS app and connect manually to the cameras WIFI setting to get it to start recording.  Does anyone know of a fix for this?   Current iOS software version 13.3 on iPhone XSMAX and 70mai app version 1.4.0     -

Auto adjustment of the ISO or older cameras uses IR.

Any dash cam that is 1080P , with mobile app and also act as a volt meter type? so that it will auto cut off once voltage is low, at least still can start car.

DDPai. 2k ones also less than $100, why stick to 1080p? Mini 3 or mini 2 (with the direct connection smart cable kit) should suit you. I have the mini 2 just dekitted from my ex car. Still working after 3.5 year. Only issue is, if parked under hot sun it may auto off until car is restarted and air con cools it down.

Am contemplating to get the mini 5 4K cam next with 4G sim for remote monitoring.

I bought 70mai A800 car dash camera with front and rear 4k resolution.

Previously, I have the 70mai Pro and I was already very happy with the performance.

The specifications of this new 70mai A800 look much better than the 70mai Pro however, I have not installed yet.

I'm using, very solid cam, u won't regret, damn clear, only the rear not so clear.
