im using the stock 16gb one and no issues so far.

Samsung 16GB sucks. Samsung 16GB is class 6. Compatibility is not as good as Samsung 32GB class 10. Pittasoft 16GB is a different story. I sold almost about 100 piece now. Nothing happened to a stock pittasoft 16GB. Did you use samsung 16gb sd for your cell or camera as well, meowmeow? You can send it to the factory to exchange another one tho.But the shipping is kind of killing you. So you can go to NCIX get a class 10 Patriot 32GB. It is only 20 dollars.

Nope havnt used it for phone/cams...but I think I'm just gonna go buy a new sd card

Thanks for all the inputs & responses everyone
I'd thank you all but I'm on mobile :/

i bought a 32gb class 10 samsung card off ebay, have yet to try it. it works well on my phone though.

Yeah the Samsung one that comes with the unit is kind of iffy! I replaced it with an ADATA 32gb class 10 and no issues. The stock 16 works great as a USB storage drive :)

replaced samsung with Sandisk Class 4 for 2 months now, no issues, havent formatted

From all the research I did before I bought the BlackVue some two months ago, a couple of things were quite clear, as far as problem solving the card issue was concerned.

Decent quality SD card is a must. Class 10 recommended.

Format the card using recommended method.

Most reputable card manufacturers format their cards properly, but why take a chance?

Install latest firmware update.


BTW, my BV came with a Pittasoft 16gb class 10 card. I purchased an Aldata 32gb card from NCIX and have not had a single issue with it. I backup and delete the "record" files almost on a daily basis and have yet to reformat. I use my Macbook Pro - pop the card into the express card slot (21 in 1 Sonnet card reader).

after reviewing footage while i was at work.

Got cut off twice this week.

you got the hand twice :lawl:

where is that place?

I guess that make me special? Actually it is one hand and one finger.

That second video, I didn't see that coming AT ALL.

:fulloffuck:

But it's better to have a cheap one than nothing.

Get a cheap one to start, when you can afford it get a good one, and sell your cheap one or put it in a secondary car.

You should report tthat to Grand Villa's security....

anyone know if I can get a cheap cam like this one for around $50 locally?

although that one kind of looks like the blackvue, in real life it's actually 3-4x the size! There's an imitation blackvue that's similar in size that's called blackview that sells for about $60 on ebay, but I've had some heating issues with it in the sun.

Lexar 32GB Micro SDHC Class 10 Memory Card : Memory - Best Buy Canada

if anyone wants a 32gb class 10..

I picked up a Lexar 32GB card and it actually does write 10mb/s Gonna start using it tomorrow. Been waiting for a good brand one for some time now. Most of the other brand doesn't write close to what it is rated at. Class number just means what it is capable of, but it doesn't mean write speed. We all know read speed is faster than write speed. The Pitasoft one I benched write at 7mb/s.

so ive got a PNY 16gb card for my x3000 and never had any issues until today. Well when i first got my card everything was fine..then eventually i started seeing that some footage would not save (when i opened it up on my computer) it showed a picture of a sd card but like cut in half , in color red. Anyways...fast forward a bit and it seemed to have gone back to normal until today when i took the card out from the dash cam, put it into the adapter and plugged it into my computer when it showed "format card in order to continue" so i tried formatting it but everytime i get an error which says it cant format..so now i cant look at the footage on my computer..any ideas? = /

^ I would say the memory card is dead.

really? lamee lol well ill be waiting til later today to see if anyone has any other ideas as to whats going on. If its dead i guess best buy i go too

anyone elses blackvue run hot?

I have the dr400g-hd, It runs fairly hot when the sun is shinning at the windshield almost can burn. But on cool day like today it can get hot but you can still hold it.
