Gdspd08 2nd Gear April 19, 2013 Share April 19, 2013 Sounds like your cam got toasted. Can we know how long have you been using it? Is the recording function still working fine? I'm asking to estimate the lifespan of the device. Thanks Everything is still working fine. I bought it last year May 2012. Just feel weird that the plastic hub has turned golden. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perfectodev Neutral Newbie April 19, 2013 Share April 19, 2013 I ordering 3 or 4 more from Apple CT for a couple of friends. http://apple-ct.com/shop/category.php?id_category=9 :-) Hi, interested to buy from apple ct but now I am abit confused on the power magic pro/ PMagic/ itv-80.. which is better for everyday use including the parking mode at all times?. Another thing is, can I link another rear camera to the PMagic so it can support 2 camera at the same time during parking? I intend to reuse my old camera for the rear. Any advice is much appreciated. Thanks Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sabian Turbocharged April 19, 2013 Share April 19, 2013 (edited) I read somewhere that apple-ct has set up his own online shop but don't know where. Thanks for sharing. Good to know that he has so much stock (in case i need an exchange for a faulty unit). But seems that the prices is a couple of dollars higher than what he quoted me at ebay. Different strokes for different folks. I bought from Apple CT before. The local AD set is priced 50% more than Apple-CT but you have the advantage of local 1 year warranty and 1 to 1 exchange if the set fxxks up. Personally, itronics ITB-100HD is rather reliable and plus the fact I don't use parking mode, hence, no heat issues, I decided to buy direct from Korea. For me, I can't justify paying 50%($265 vs $398 installation inclusive) more for a local set bec I don't expect any warranty issue and even if it did come to that, it means $43 and 8-10 days of downtime which I can live with. So you have to decide which are you comfortable with. Edited April 19, 2013 by Sabian Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you have to decide which are you comfortable with. The $43... do you mean the cost of shipping back to apple-ct for replacement/repair? Anyway, thanks for all the folks online for sharing their experiences and knowledge, the price between the AD and apple-ct has narrowed a lot. I have my reservations before I decided to buy from apple-ct. It's a risk that I have to take. But then, his reputation at dashcamtalk and ebay do help. I guess the days of marking up prices by 50-100% by AD are over. A margin of 20% is more reasonable for the convenience and local warranty. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any advice is much appreciated. Thanks If you wish to use parking mode, it will be better to use a power-cutoff device. This is to prevent draining your car battery. See this article for more information. http://dashcamtalk.com/battery-discharge-prevention/ The itv-80 comes with 1 cig socket. Not sure if you can use a splitter like this to accommodate 2 cams. http://dx.com/p/1-to-2-way-car-cigarette-l...cm-length-93807 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, Apple-CT has increased his price to USD193 (SGD 245). I paid $20 to have it installed. Total $265. I just did a 5 sets order for myself, friends and relatives. Each set cost USD182 (SGD231). Installing at the rear for my ride. Total damage for front and rear cams w/o Powermagic: SGD522.

Adrenalinpwd Neutral Newbie April 20, 2013 Share April 20, 2013 Wow didn't know order from apple ct also can bargain price. I think Usd182 w/o UPS is gd price! Anyone intending to buy can use this as benchmark :) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arenz 2nd Gear April 20, 2013 Share April 20, 2013 New stock arrived @SLS (Cybermnd Computer House, #04-49). Got a 32G Class 10 SD card for my ITB100HD today. Hi guys, Went SLS yesterday but seems like most shops are out of stock for their 32G class 10 SD card whereas those that have it are quite expensive (around $45-$50 a piece). So just wanna check where you guys bought your 32G class 10 SD card, specifically which shop and the price you paid. Found one in Gmarket called Memorette but couldn't find any reviews on it. Any bros used it before? Many thanks in advance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adrenalinpwd Neutral Newbie April 20, 2013 Share April 20, 2013 I bought the itv 80 as well for each cam since it is not that expensive. IIRC AD also mentioned b4 that cannot share the ITV-80. I bought my 32Gb class 10 from Gmarket already n using it now. Very affordable @ $21 each. Tks for the heads up on new stocks arrival at SLS. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only paid $6.10 with singpost airmail. $6.10 is with tracking... My box was big too and I stuffed it with a lot of newspaper. If you have a proper box, should be less than 5 bucks easy.

Adrenalinpwd Neutral Newbie April 20, 2013 Share April 20, 2013 Yes stated on his website, "Free Standard Shipping(15~25 Work days)". Any bro who don't need it urgently and don't mind the wait can save a few more bucks to fund a 32GD class 10 SD card instead :) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
