Dash Cam

How is the night time quality on the HP210? My $20 dash cam's night quality was horrible. Well see for yourself. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A6ANd8T-U88&feature=youtu.be

I thought I saw one on here but searching for it could be a pain. I need to figure that whole tapatalk thing out so I can post a picture of my set up. I basically installed a 12V outlet (like $4) inside the right side dash panel (door open) and wired it to my AUX 4. So it allows me to run the cable hidden and plug into the socket out of sight. Also, someone else on here did a sweet "always on one" with a switch in the center console.

Also I broke down and put my stupidity on YouTube;

Not a great camera, but like I said a better one is coming.

I love that intersection. I always try to time it to allow a decent run through the green light without traffic. More than once I've waived to the people watching me sail by in front of them. The best part is that you don't really have to go very fast to get air there. If you can get some ****** in a honda to tailgate you at speed you can watch them wreck their shit in the mirror.

If there is moon light or other lighting along with your headlights its not bad but of course not nearly as sharp as in the daytime.

Thanks Ice- Ended up buying something else...

Amazon.com : Black Box HD1080P 2014Y G1W Car Dash Camera DVR Novatek NT96650 AR0330 Lens 320mah Battery : Car Electronics

But think I should have went with this one because it looks like the same thing just under different brand names (without mount i think) ..


Amazon.com : Foneso New Full HD 1080P Operating at 1920*1080 (30 FPS) Car DashBoard Video Camera Dashcam Black Box with Novatek NT96220 + 2.7 Inch Screen + 140 Degree Extreme Wide Angle Lens + Night Vision + G-sensor + Motion Detection + H.264 + HDMI

Haha- so I bought the black one ^ first link. It came in the same box as the blueish one.. Second link. Sure enough it's the same damn thing.

They just put a sticker over the original barcode.

thats the one i just bought. How are you going to wire it? im thinking about just buying a cheap mini usb cable, routing it through the roof, down the side to the fuse box and tapping in there, like someone said earlier. I just need to cut the other USB off and find the power wire.

Funny you posted this. I woke up this morning going.. How the hell am I going to wire that? I think I may tinker with the idea of opening up the sunroof/sliding glass, etc, panel and seeing if there's a hot wire. Any clue which one is powered on when the truck is on? Also might as well wire my radar detector also

Let's see if this picture shows

Since I upgraded the dash cam it made changing it out super easy.

Thinking about getting this guy

Amazon.com : BlackVue Wi-Fi 2 Channel DR550GW-2CH 32GB, Car Black Box/Car DVR Recorder with Power Magic Pro : Vehicle Backup Cameras : Car Electronics

Pricey but I do like the extra features on it. I'm probably going to wire it to one of my AUX switches ( master switch in case ya know, I need to kidnap someone ).

My only question right now is how I'm going to wire the rear camera..

I would get a secondary rearview
Mounted high up in cab
Better angle
