yes you can disable to speed and time through the software.



eBay - New & used electronics, cars, apparel, collectibles, sporting goods & more at low prices

i see there are cheaper ones. some even include powermagic, which is an inverter that keeps the camera running while your car is parked. but i would email the seller first to confirm.

unfortunately, you can't turn gps off.

this camera records in 1080p @ 30fps btw.

Got a Go pro motorsport HD camera for Christmas, No longer looking for a cam as i usually drive in the day time.. Not a night time cam for sure. Might try to play with the focus setting on it to see if it can be a little better, But it is pretty damn nice in the day time (Maybe even nicer once i get a bigger card instead of my cheep 2 gig cards)

i decided not to get a tv now, but i wanna get car repainted...so i'll do that and wait until summer to get the car cam.

Bahhbeehhaaaa 12-26-2011 10:25 PM

are there cameras out there that has the ability to record while the car is parked? hoping it will provide protection against Hit and Run!~

mb_ 12-26-2011 11:24 PM

With the one I have, you can keep it on even when parked. I usually only let it record when I'm driving but accidentally forgot to stop it when I went to work.

BlackVue DR400G-HD 16GB Vehicle Car Black-Box Drive GPS English Manual Free EMS | eBay

Other and even lower.. slightly:
New BlackVue DR400G-HD 16GB Vehicle Car Black-Box Drive GPS Recorder | eBay

If I buy 5 of these, the seller said 227.43 USD and includes shipping.

I've messaged like 4 or 5 sellers to see what is the best price out there if multiples are bought.

*Edit
Another one for 3 for 670 w/ shipping so works out to be 223.33 each

ok thanks !

with regards to the BlackVue camera


if you guys want i'll contact the actual manufacturer of that device and see if we can set something up

I'll have to ask the RS gods as well and deal with any requirements first to make sure Im not breaking any rules but first I'll need to know the interest behind it

buying straight from the factory will likely be much cheaper than a retailer and i don't think their minimum units required will be that high

(cousins had a auto accessory supply company, he supplies local wholesalers etc so i can even see if he'll pick up the item and just have his company deal with it)

Gh0stRider 12-27-2011 10:17 AM

im down for the BlackVue DR400G-HD

StylinRed 12-27-2011 05:50 PM

well i found out the "moq" is 100 units from the factory so i'll definitely need to get my cousin involved -_-

StylinRed 12-28-2011 12:45 AM

so this is the pricelist from the manufacturer of blackvue (pittasoft)

http://img171.imageshack.us/img171/7194/blackvue.jpg

that doesn't include shipping and taxes

:heckno:


may as well just get it off the guy from ebay

You can probably save some money by buying bulk from the real manufacturer in China via Alibaba especially if you have a company entity.. (TaoBao is typically more expensive because the Chinese sales tax is included, but it allows you to buy in smaller batches). One of those cases that B2B (Alibaba) makes a difference vs B2C (Taobao).

Thanks CRS! Glad I went with this one as the price simply can't be beat!

Had to dig deep into my memory for ghetto wire hiding techniques~

Grim 01-13-2012 07:17 PM

^^ how did you wire the thing?

In a nutshell, ran the wire from the cigarette lighter plug neatly along dash, tucked the wire inside the rubber weather strips between the door and A-pillar, and then stuffed the excess into the roofliner~

I might get it professionally hardwired later on, but I could probably live with the way it looks now as it's not too bad!
