I saw this FH06H on Qoo10. (Am I allowed to post the link here?)

 

2 ch, $46.90, excluding SD card and installation. Not sure whether I should buy and try, since I currently only have front camera (Blaupunkt).

 

Does anyone have experience with these cameras from Qoo10, besides the Xiaomi/Xiaoyi models? Xiaoyi doesn't have dual channel.

Hi experts, are there dual channel dash cams out there that can be also be used as reverse camera too? As in when we engage to reverse gear, the front screen will show the back image like how a normal reverse camera would do?

Dunno why my earlier thread kena removed. Havent even got chance to read the replies.

 

I am interested to install a car camera.

Anyone can advise which of the following

 

Blackvue

DR380G-HD - $350

DR400G-HD - $450

 

Itronics

ITB-100-HD - $398

 

After some enquiry, realize the dealers charge for installation. I thought installation usually included in the price.

brand name ones are not worth it, you can find stuff for much cheaper that are just as good and a quarter of the price.

 

you can find some solid ones on Amazon or eBay, i bought my son one on XenonPro.

Dunnoe about that.. it's just like insurance I guess.. some people are like.. buy cheap can liao.. while some will go to expensive brands like GE.. it all depends on circumstances. Personally bought a cheaper branded one but got pissed when my car got swiped in car park and the camera footage came back nil. Decided to go full on and gotten a thinkware.. never turn back since. Think in the end, the reliability comes at a price bah.

could have been an installation/setup issue rather than a cam issue. no reason for a dash cam to cost 500 bucks IMO

Need some advice here:

 

What's the difference between installing a 2ch front + rear dashcam vs 2 seperate ones? I know if separate, I'll need to maintain 2 SD cards and the video playback will have to be manually synced on both cameras. 

 

The disadvantages don't seem to be much of a hassle given that 2ch cams are generally more expensive than buying two separate ones. 

 

Is the installation more troublesome on 2 seperate cams if I'm not using the cigarette port? I'll get the shop to do the wiring. I'm not a DIY person. 

 

Anything that I need to take note of with this setup? Thanks.

If integrated one hor, one spoilt all spoilt! (and more expensive too).

 

If 2 separate ones, you have 50% chance of getting the important video clip even if one spoilt.

 

Like those integrated washer/dryer, or worse, oven cum coffee maker.
