Dash Camera Discussion / What Dash Cams are you guys using?

Is there enough room to install 2 Blendmounts? I currently have the Blendmount for Escort 360C and I've got a Blackvue 750 LTE on order. Front windshield is tinted so I'd rather not stick the cam on the tint if possible.

No ony one barely fit. There was a link up in this thread to custom mirror base with integrated camera. That is likely the only "stock look" option.

I’m trying to look for something that is excellent in parked mode at night.
a perk would be to notify my phone if someone is messing with the car in real time.

BLACKVUE is a brand I have seen but they are over the top and need a subscription of $170 a year

I'm using Blackvue 750LTE with T-mobile 2 gig plan which is $10 a month... I'm using the Blackvue free subscription. Motion detection is super sensitive so I've got that notification turned off in parking mode. I'm notified when there is an impact though.

So with the free plan, do you lose a lot of the features after 90 days?
Also was the T-Mobile plan separate with this or did you add it on to yiur phone plan?

Also, how sensitive is the parking sensor? Will it pick up something close to the car when it’s pitch black and no light is near the car?

Does it work well in parked mode in pitch black areas?

Camera is constantly recording is how sensitive the motion detection is. When I first got the cam I had the notification turned on and it wouldn't shut up about it detecting motion...

My co-workers exhaust sets off the impact sensor and I'm notified which is good enough for me.

How do you have it setup? Is it draining your battery? Also why did you get the 750 vs 900?

 

[Drakov]

I've got the Blackvue 124x and 124e battery packs which gives me about 2 days worth of recording. Went with the 750 as it has better night recording in my opinion. Also, the built in LTE was a plus as I didn't want to buy an extra LTE module.

Nextbase 622GW. Very happy with it. 4K.

Mio 848.
It has Sony STARVIS CMOS and the speeding camera warning feature saves me a lot!

VanTop H612 with the hardware kit, works really well and sensitive enough for it being triggered while I remove the car cover

I have this from amazon, very good at doing its job I'll eventually want to upgrade to something with a sleeker design, and in 4K but not willing to pay blackvue money. (Oh and I got the cables hardwired by my friends' shop)
