Blackvue DR400G-HD.

The same brand that everyone asks about.

Krazynuck and I both ordered our blackvues together and I finally got mine working with the new english firmware.

quality is amazing on my computer, youtube really downgrades it

weird, after posting I opened the video on youtube and it's uploaded by autolismo, so I went to the autolismo site and the sample video under their v3 cam links to the same video

change to 1080p view on youtube and it looks good...default is 360p

I love mine....I notice that its cheaper on ebay now though :okay:

I got the velcro too if you still want some

wow that audio would totally annoy me. i'd try to pop it open and disable the speaker wire. at least you get english menus.

Has anyone tried hardwiring BV?

Might get this one for the other cars. Post up some sample vids when available! Did it come with a memory card?

Is it strong enough to use industrial strength velcro? Can the industrial strength velcro hold the camera? Can you post a picture how does that work on the blackview. Thanks so much.

finevu cr-300hd is also awesome too

Just wondering for those who have the blackvue, do you guys also have the power magic pro?

Hey guys

I am currently visiting in Taiwan. I saw many dash cams for sale in electronic stores.
I am considering buying them for relatives back in Vancouver.
The price seems to be fair. They have tons of cheap ones here too.

DOD GS600 is around $250

I am gonna visit the electronic shops again.
If you guys want, I can check the local price for you. just give me a name or a link
If it's cheaper, I can help you get it and ship it since I am shipping some back to relatives anyway.

The popular ones here are MIO 238HD

720P HD, G-sensor, comes with screen. Around $170

I guess the Taiwanese brand would be cheaper here.

so far, i can't find a good price on Blackvue DR400G-HD yet...

Keep meaning to but been super lazy about doing it. Why do you ask? It is actually a very simple process.

I just dropped by two shops and saw these

DOD F880 Full HD 60fps around $140 cdn

Vico DS2 - Full HD . G-Sensor F2.0 the guy said this one works really well at night. around $185cdn

then i saw another one that really caught my eye. this one mounts on the rear view mirror. looks neat and clean behind the mirror. forgot to take picture. here are the pix i found on google.

LTS W5100 has G-sensor, 720HD, around $140cdn

The guy showed me couple video clips from LTS W5100 and i was impressed with its quality and sharpness. it adjusts the lighting quickly going in the tunnel. looks great at night.

He also recommended another one called PaPaGo P0.
My friend had that on his GTI and it has trouble turning on in Winter.
For some reason it needs to be warmed up to turn on...so I'd avoid PAPAGO.

Before I left, I saw a cheap one called UB JXD-D1 720HD around $60

So far, I really like the LTS W5100.

^ Check out the Abee v30. Lots of shops are selling that while I was in Taipei last December.
If you are into DOD, get GSE550 instead. The F880LHD is and old 720p model. The GS600 you mentioned earlier is only USD$200 if buying from Amazon. http://www.amazon.com/DOD-GS600-Black-Logger-1920x1080/dp/B004Q78QH2

Can you help me pweaaaaaaseeee

^ it's easy!

Not exactly sure what part you need help with.

Basically:
1) Mount device where you want it to be
2) Remove A-pillar trim/headliner/door weather trim thingy/whatever else maybe in the way so you can hide the wire and lead it to fuse box
3) Cut cigarette plug portion off
4) Strip/prep wires, either ghetto or with a proper plug
5) Plug into fusebox and ground wire
6) ???
7) Go to truestea and buy TOS'd a BBT

^^^ BBT? I'd buy you a steak dinner!

if anyone's interested i'm looking to sell my blackvue! bought it a few months ago and haven't used it for a while. might be able to find the original box somewhere. pm for details!

save on shipping!

:blush:

I'm sure we can work something out..

You & fd3 can do it for me then :)

There should just be a group hardwiring get together where peeps who know how to do it can teach the peeps who don't know. It should be so much easier that way.

I'll contact you when I get mine in the near future. :)

I don't want to know how to do it - I'd rather just pay someone to do it for me. I personally hate working on my car. :p

:lol

Senna4ever, then your car can be the demo where the peeps who know can show the peeps who don't know!

Win-win.

No it did not come with a memory card. There are some videos on youtube but I will post some of my own videos when I get a a chance to grab the memory card from my brother's truck.

The velcro is super strong and it's not easy to take off. It can hold the camera fine and doesn't wiggle when driving over bumps.

Thanks!! I remember seeing Abee V30 in one of the shop.
