  1. Hi guys, Marbella seems to be a up and coming dashcam brand in Singapore. Was looking for reviews on brand but found them in different threads on model specifics. So thought I start a brand thread so all can share their thoughts in one thread for easy ref. My ITB100SPW which have served me 5years (with battery changed in between) seems to be dying. I'm looking at Marbella KR8S / 6S but realised there are very limited reviews on Marbella dashcams. Read in forum they used to have video downloading issues but seems to have been resolved with new app in 2018. Read another user had recording time gap between video files. Wonder if other users experience this as well. Would love to hear your reviews for Marbella. Thanks for your contribution.
  2. Had been meaning to do a short write up to share my experience when I did a DIY installation/replacement of my old 2-channel dashcam (front and rear) with a new 2-channel dashcam, and also to rant about the shitty worksmanship that I got from the "professional" workshop that did my previous dashcam installation. I had read up quite a bit on DIY installation of dashcam before deciding to take the plunge, and boy did I learn a lot from it! Dismantling the Old Dashcam So I started from the rear camera, and start ed pulling the wires out from the head liner. My fuse box is on the left side of the front passenger car seat - I had checked this out in advance and was ready to install the new dashcam to draw power from this fuse box. #1. Started pulling out the old wires, and when I saw the wires going towards the driver's side (right side), I started to have a bad feeling about the old installation... #2. As I slowly pulled the wires out from the rear of the car to the front, I saw that the wires were being stuffed into the headliner in front of the plastic clips, with the plastic clips pressing onto the wires and creating a kink in the wires: #3. So I continued pulling and eventually revealed the excess wire - which was bundled into a messy bunch of spaghetti and haphazardly taped together... and shoved behind the kick panel at the pedals: #4. Eventually when I tried to disconnect the electrical wires for my old dashcam, I saw that it was tapped into an existing spliced-open electrical wire: Opening up the electrical tape, I saw that the wire was just twisted and mashed up onto the existing wire... ... and that splice was done just a few centimeters away from an adaptor that plugs into the socket! (wtf!?) #5. Then tracing the wire back down the line towards the camera... I noticed that one of the wires from the old dashcam (circled yellow) was spliced onto an existing already-spliced wire (circled red)! (WHAT THE F!@#?) Eventually I got all the wires dismantled. And then sealed up all the splices so as not to short out the other electrical components. Installing the New Dashcam I initially thought I could reuse the route that the old dashcam installation had taken to the front of the car - but unfortunately I had to carve myself a new route from the rear of my vehicle to the front fuse box I started from the back of the car, and routed the wiring cleanly towards the front: Ran the wires up the A-pillar and threaded all wires behind any plastic clips so they wouldn't get snagged or get kinked when the headliners are smacked back into place. Now here's the fun part - in all the research that I did online via website and YouTube tutorials, not one of these guides/tutorials suggested splicing open existing electrical wires in order to supply power into the new dashcam. It's either: 1) Use the cigarette lighter port - i.e. plug the dashcam into the USB/cigarette lighter port, OR 2) Make use of fuse taps (like the ones below) and tap into the car's internal fuse box (not the engine fuse box!) I needed to have parking power enabled for my dashcam, so I used a 12V tester and tested out all the fuses in my fuse box to see which one I could make use of. Eventually I settled for the constant power fuse serving the Door lights (25A) - the camera needed only 2.4A so I put in a 3A fuse: ACC power was 15A, so again, that stayed the same and I put in a 3A fuse for the new dashcam: The final installation looked definitely a lot better than the old installation job: Afterthoughts I truly wonder what the f@#$ I had paid for when I went to the "professional" workshop to install my old dashcam - I had paid a labour fee for it back then($50), and truly was not expecting this kind of half-baked job that spliced into any open/live electrical wire without any thought given to it. I did not go and trace which existing live wires the workshop had tapped into (ABS? Airbags? ECU?) - I guess it's a moot point to go after such things at this point in time. And for those guys who leave reviews saying the workshop they went to install their dashcam (or any other electrical components) is "Very good! Top notch service!" - is it REALLY good worksmanship that they provided? Or is all the horror revealed when you pop open that kick panel? Just sharing my experience that it seems a faraway dream to expect a workshop to do up such installations in the correct and proper way... Also, in the recent wake of increasing reports of cars catching fire all of a sudden - is it really surprising? To me, not really. I have been to several workshops for electrical issues or installation of electric components, and each one did wiring in exactly the manner as I described above - splicing open any live wire without bothering where it comes from, or where it leads to. Sorry for the long post with the heavy use of images. Thanks for reading, and feel free to share your experiences. Stay safe everyone! Have a good week ahead!
  3. TL;DR: C-HR driver is unhappy cam car driver did not let him into lane, proceeds to brake-check, confront and attempt to cause accidents “When in the wrong, just continue heck care since already wrong once” a motto this crazy C-HR beng believes in. To get an idea of the madness involved, watch the following 3.5-minute clip: What started it From 0:55, we can see “King Ander” — as inscribed on the C-HR’s driver side window — wanting to switch into the cam car’s lane, since his lane is left-turn only. He’s already left a significant gap from the white Serena ahead, and doesn’t seem to have signalled right, since there are no flashes from his mirror-mounted indicators. The cam car driver is having none of “King Ander’s” entitlement, so he just drives on. Displeased, the C-HR encroaches into the cam car’s lane as an attempt at intimidation, to no avail. Just before approaching the junction, the C-HR finally turns on its right indicators. Seeing the road clear up ahead, it gives up trying to merge, driving straight on and squeezing out the cam car in the process. Tyrannical behaviour commences Not satisfied with getting ahead, the C-HR seizes the opportunity to “punish” the cam car, flooring it across some chevrons and abruptly cuts across 2 lanes, just to perform a double brake check. At least he remembered to use his signals this time. Having boxed the cam car in traffic, he gets out for a confrontation to act tough. Another angle of this beng’s mug taken by the cam car’s passenger, with profane gestures and all; certainly not behaviour befitting a king. Realising they have all sorts of incriminating evidence, he finally retreats to his car, but not before a final "dirty trick”. As the cam car switches lanes to distance itself, this tyrant attempts to force the cam car off the road right across 4 lanes beyond his own, before switching again to the next lane, all without signalling. All in, the 8 (at least) infractions included: Failure to signal intention (multiple) Failure to stay in lane Driving over chevrons Driving into an oncoming lane Brake-checking Stopping on a double zigzag Causing an obstruction Attempting to cause an accident Online reactions The majority of comments appear to condemn both parties, stating that the cam car driver was partly at fault for not giving way to “King Ander”, despite his lack of signalled intention early on. While in the minority, there were still a few condemning his actions. What do you think, should the cam car driver be more gracious even if he was entirely in the right, or was this C-HR beng wrong to bully even if he's "King (Ander)" of the road?

  6. Have you ever encountered one of the worst nightmares a driver could ever have? No, I'm not talking about cyclists or saman aunty... I mean, dashing pedestrians! You may think I am kidding, but I am not joking. One wrong move from them, and you could easily become a murderer. See this example here: 297064227_415562567214847_4853208197817188327_n.mp4 That was close. I'm sure we all gasped in shock seeing the lady step out of nowhere like that. In case you missed it, here are extra snapshots I compiled: Nothing there. Or so we thought. And a split second later: Boo! The nastiest shock of the cam car driver's life! Thank God the cam car driver did not collide with the jaywalking pedestrian. It didn't stop there, however. Here's the worst part - the pedestrian did not learn her lesson. She stubbornly attempted to dash out onto the unsuspecting incoming traffic yet again... My goodness, can you believe the sheer foolhardiness? The utter audacity. Instead of learning her lesson, she blatantly ignored what had almost transpired and decided to charge back in🤦‍♂️ Netizens weigh in Many commentators had some choice words to say. Yes, we too, are speechless. I am betting this isn't her first rodeo. Unpopular Opinion: The presence of the bus indirectly contributed to the near-miss accident, but you should always check your blind spots, pedestrian or driver! Yes, this person said what we were all thinking. SMH! Being mindful all day keeps the hospital bills away! For pedestrians, if you don't want to: 1) get a fright; and 2) be scolded online like this pedestrian did, always look left and right before you cross! ========= Be the first to get the latest road/ COE news, and get first dibs on exclusive promos and giveaways in our Telegram SGCM Community.

  7. TL;DR – A cam car driver took to social media to shame a Subaru WRX for playing a brake check game with it. The driver even noted down the number (7 times) of brake checks performed by the WRX. Plot twist, the cam car driver isn’t so innocent either. The Facebook Post on SGRV Upon watching the video and reading the caption, one cannot help but think negatively of the Subaru WRX. Then you watch the video again, and you realise there’s more to it than what you see at face value. Here’s the video. The spark that fueled the fire Upon realising it was on a right-turn only lane, the cam car driver cut into the path of the WRX. Perhaps cam car didn’t signal its intention? Perhaps cam car did an abrupt lane change? Perhaps cam car was too near the WRX? Could be a myriad of reasons. But we can conclude that it triggered the WRX to act. Not just once, but SEVEN times On Count 7, cam car pretends to drive on a right-turn-only lane to throw the WRX off and changes lane at the last minute, but the WRX was ready for it and abruptly changed lane too. Online Chatter Sounds legit. Yes, both of them were driving recklessly. No argument about it. Schooled by a WRX. Naise. Very close. But, while most people would honk at cam car and calm their inner beast, the WRX driver went another way. When you post a video as a victim, but people call you out as one of the culprits. That’s golden. ========= Be the first to get the latest road/ COE news and get first dibs on exclusive promos and giveaways in our Telegram SGCM Community. Join us today!
  8. A cam car driver experiences a driver's worst nightmare and learns the importance of investing in a good dashcam the hard way. Just yesterday (March 24), the cam car driver was travelling along the KPE. A motorcyclist suddenly dashes past on his right in an attempt to lane split. Unlike most riders who lane split without any problems, this attempt ends in the rider breaking off the cam car's right-side mirror. Pieces of the mirror flew like confetti as the rider sped up and rode away, staying dangerously close to the vehicles in front. Driver unable to identify rider Due to the shoddy quality dashcam footage, the driver could not identify the motorcyclist. While most drivers can attest to having a good dashcam, some have felt that splurging on such a device is unnecessary. However, there are benefits to having a dashcam that produces top-notch footage. With better-quality footage, drivers can identify the parties involved in the case of an accident. It helps ease the insurance claiming process and protects the driver from fraud. Although picking a good dashcam can be an arduous process, there are several criteria that drivers should look out for when buying a dashcam. If you're in the market for a better dashcam, here is a list of the top dashcams used by drivers in Singapore. Netizens' reactions Most netizens chastised the rider for his amateur lane-splitting skills and sympathised with the unlucky cam driver, while some pointed out the less-than-optimal quality of the footage. He probably watched a video of someone doing it once on YouTube and thought "I can do it too!". How to revoke when you can't even see the plate? Yes, exactly, why? Hopefully after seeing this article, the cam driver will go and buy himself a better dashcam! ======== Be the first to get the latest road/ COE news and get first dibs on exclusive promos and giveaways in our Telegram SGCM Community.

  9. For drivers, it is crucial to have a sturdy dashcam that records high-quality footage and audio in case of a potential incident. These are trustworthy investments that provide an additional layer of security for both the driver and the vehicle. After all, the last thing any driver wants is to find his car damaged without a plausible explanation or proof of the incident. However, some drivers refuse to update their existing cameras or, even worse, do not have a working camera in their vehicles. They often justify their decisions with an “I have never been in an accident.” or an “I’m a safe driver, I won’t have to claim anything from my insurance.”. While these bouts of overconfidence save the drivers some money from purchasing an expensive camera, it often fails to protect them from the inevitable truth – no one can predict the future. Criterion for dashcams Firstly, it is crucial to get a dashcam that records at a higher frame rate. For the device to record while in motion, it must not skip frames or suffer from high levels of motion blur. When buying a dashcam, look for one that has a high rate of frames per second (fps). As a general rule, a camera that records an average of 30 frames per second is good enough. Secondly, decide if you want a dashcam that has a built-in WiFi feature. While this might seem like a waste of money, it ultimately helps in the long run when you require footage from your camera as soon as possible. Lastly, consider the temperature rating of the dashcam. In a hot climate like Singapore’s, you might want to purchase a piece of technology that can withstand high temperatures in a sealed car for long periods. Alternatively, specific cameras come with a cooling system that allows the device to regulate its temperature as it records. How do you transfer data to your phone? Although dashcams have been around for a while now, you’d be surprised to find out that some drivers still have no idea how to transfer data when necessary. If you own a dashcam that comes with WiFi, you would be pleased to know that transferring footage is as simple as a few taps on your mobile phone. Typically, most brands with WiFi dashcams have an established cloud-based application that drivers can install on their phones to access the footage from their cameras. By connecting your phone to the dashcam through the WiFi connection, drivers can easily view and save live and past recordings. On the other hand, if your dashcam does not come with WiFi, you would have to transfer your data manually by retrieving the MicroSD card. Most dashcams store the card on the side, which can be removed and inserted into a computer with an SD card adapter. From there, drivers can view and copy the video files onto their disks. What would you recommend for a dashcam? Although most cars come with a dashcam already installed, some drivers prefer to switch it out for a better device. According to this sgCarMart article, the most popular choice is the BlackVue DR590W-2CH dual-channel Wi-Fi dashcam. With an excellent recording performance, this camera can record in resolutions of up to 1080p at 30fps with wide angles of vision. It also comes with a STARVIS CMOS sensor for the front camera, producing fantastic performance in low-light conditions. Another great contender is the Marbella KR X smart dual-channel Wi-Fi dashcam. Hailing from Korea, this camera is powered by a Starvis IMX335 CMOS Image Sensor and provides detailed recordings of up to 1440p. It also features a Smart Time Lapse mode to capture parking surveillance footage of up to 48 hours without a need for an external battery pack. If both of these dashcams do not suit your tastes, you can check out the full article for a complete list of the latest cameras available! ========= Witnessed an accident?

  10. Drivers, have you seen this Audi while you're out on the roads? 👀 It's really appalling to see how much damage this Audi driver's recklessness has caused over the past week - and to think he hasn't been jailed yet! TBH, I wish more drivers have those dashcams that are able to capture 30 second snapshots with the click of a button and automatically store it in their phones so that it's easier to catch idiots like this. Maybe something like this? It's kinda annoying to have to watch the whole dashcam footage when you witness something interesting or get into an accident. Are there any recommendations for good dashcams, especially for new drivers? 😅
  11. Hi there, I am in the processing of comparing different dashcams. There are lot of opposing opinions so I thought I would do some further research. My criteria was to future proof so that it at least lasts a couple of years BUT not get the latest which might be overkill/too expensive. Like I don't think it's necessary to have 4K. I think getting from the US also might be an option (even despite not having local warranty). I prioritize safety and so an ACTUALLY useful driver assistance system would be great! The ones in my comparison set are: iRoad x9 $460 Front and rear at full HD 1080P at 30fps, 90 degrees rear I think, 150 degrees front, Driving Assistance Features / Road Safety Warning System, prevents battery discharged, Wi-Fi Does not overheat too much. Reviews are quite mixed BlackVue DR750S-2CH $568, even lower in some places Front camera with Full HD (1920 x1080 @60FPS), Rear camera with Full HD (1920 x 1080 @30FPS), 139º wide view angle, WiFi built-in, Cloud service compatible, Endures higher operation temperature than earlier models. Reviews are quite mixed, but skewed a bit negative. Although this US site shows very good reviews. Thinkware Q800PRO 2K QHD Cloud Dash Cam $699 2K QHD Front + Full HD Rear, 140°. Advanced Driver Assistance Systems that includes Lane Departure Warnings, Front Collision Warnings and more. Reviews are quite mixed, but skewed a bit negative. Although many review sites say it is feature packed. This US site compared a lot of the dashcams: https://www.blackboxmycar.com/pages/best-dash-cams#budget-friendly-4k Clearly, the iRoad x9 has similar features like driver warning systems without overheating and is cheapest but reviews for ALL are mixed. What have your personal experiences been after using it for a while? Which would you go with?

  13. Just want to share to fellow forum users to be careful when finding freelance/shop to do car camera. If its a shop, DIE DIE to take receipt for the service/goods. If its a freelance, I think better dont engage in case of future disputes. I have got a used car from a dealer and I noticed the car cam that came with the used car is faulty. So got the dealer's contact Sky to install a Marbella KR8S which I had used before in my previous car. Did not wanted to swap over to newer car cause find the swapping troublesome and decided to give the existing car cam in newer car a try only to discover it was faulty after few days. Anyways Sky who i believe owns a shop at 10 Ang Mo Kio Industrial Park 2A #03-09 did up the dashcam in Dec 19 but did not give a receipt saying I could go to him if i experience any issues. True enough after 2 weeks, the dash cam wifi failed and cannot connect to my phone. I then try to contact him but he was evasive and rude. Then I ended up seeking manufacturer help and they are kind enough to do a swap for me. Listed all the evidence to caution users against using freelance/shops who dont give receipts. I suspect he sold me a faulty dash cam and will be making police report. Lesson learn is always get an official receipt so you can dispute should there be any issues in future. 1st Pic is Sky whatsapp pic. 2nd and 3rd is his rude and evasive acts. I called multiple times but he did not ans. 3rd pic is the replacement receipt by Maka.
  14. As per title, since most modern cars come with reverse/backup camera i.e. the one that activates when put into reverse gear, and front and rear dashcams are considered must-haves for your ride... Is there a reverse/backup camera that also performs dashcam recording function (or vice versa, a rear dashcam that projects bigger image on your ICE when engage reverse gear)?
  15. Has anyone bought a dash cam from online retailers such as Amazon or Qoo10 before? The prices of the blackvue and thinkware seem much more affordable. The downside is that it would be default in Korean language but that is not an issue for me. Any other cons?
  16. So I been having intermittent issues with my dash cam over the last year, it finally seemed that the problem was the memory card. Now looking further into it, the issue at hand is that most memory cards aren't suitable for the 24/7 continous writing in surveillance/CCTV mode enabled dash cams. A typical 32GB card will hold maybe 2, maybe 4 to 5, hours worth of content which means that it is probably eating through its entire capacity's worth perhaps 2 or 3 times a day. Most common memory cards are built on a cheaper variety of memory chips called TLC NAND, which have relatively short write endurance of around 3,000~5,000 cycles, which apparently translates to about 150~300 total overwrites. Examples include be SanDisk Ultra cards... Then there's MLC and SLC NAND, which without going into working detail, get more endurance. Doing some simple math, 150 total overwrites, assuming the card does it twice a day, a cheap memory card could eat through its entire rated write endurance in less than a year! My older dashcam-used memory cards, even with formatting, cuck up the camera every few seconds now. Anyway, I notice now there are High Endurance for video surveillance memory cards by SanDisk, Lexar and Transcend, advertised to handle at least 2 years of continuous recording. I'm trying out the SanDisk card, will be interesting to see if it's still problem free after warranty is over. Anyone else tried those, or other brands of cards? I'd also like to get some more data from other users about how long their memory cards are lasting in cams.
  17. Had a pleasant experience with Sindo Accessory in the installation. The boss explained to me the installation process and made some recommendations as to the operation of the dashcam. Only after the explanation that he quoted his price. Unlike some installers who are non-commital of their price leaving the customers apprehensive of how much more they would be charged in the end. The installation did not seem to be easy, took about an hour and after that the assistant helped to install the software in the handphone. The price is not the lowest in the market but we are happy that it is reasonable for the work done. Anybody know where to download the software for itronics ITB=100SPW in window 7 platform in laptop/ If the distributor is in the forum would appreciate if you could revert.
  18. Hi, i just got my new car (very first) & thinking of installing 2-channel dashcam with parking mode so as to give me peace of mind. Wondering if anyone in this forum has Renault Grand Scenic (latest Gen4) with 2-channel dashcam installed & which authorized shop you had it installed. Im asking coz my SE told me Wearnes Automotive stopped installing rear camera due to leaking issue after installing.
  19. Hi All, Need to pull a quick one. SE offering me two options... which one should I go for? thanks!
  20. Usher in the Year of the Dog with a trusted companion - the Mio MiVue 792 There's no need to fear the holiday traffic this Lunar New Year, thanks to the Mio MiVue 792, which will keep an eye out for you in times of need. It's that time of the year again. Buying new clothes, spring cleaning, visiting relatives you only meet once a year, and not forgetting, receiving Ang Baos. That's all fine and dandy until you hit the road. Swarms of vehicles ferry a never-ending supply of Chinese families en route to their reunion dinners, tensions rise, tempers flare and road rage ensues. This makes it nearly impossible for every vehicle to escape a fender-bender during this period. No matter how safe you are as a driver, there will always be one or two nincompoops who aren't paying attention and cause a pileup. Things are about to get ruff The 2018 Lunar New Year marks the end of the Year of the Rooster and the arrival of the Dog Chinese zodiac sign. The Dog is the epitome of loyalty, sincerity and the willingness to help others. It will do everything in its power for the person it thinks is the most important. An in-car dashcam is to a driver what a dog is to its owner - a loyal and trusted companion who will watch his or her back in times of crises. It will look out for potential hazards and warn of impending danger. Top dog Leading the pack is the Mio MiVue 792, the company's top-of-the-line, state-of-the-art dashcam designed to bring law and order to the anarchy we call holiday traffic. With the help of an F1.8, 140-degree wide angle Sony Starvis CMOS sensor, the MiVue 792 is capable of recording full-HD 1920 x 1080p video at 60FPS. This allows Mio's top dog to keep its eye on the prize and never lose sight of its target, which, in this case, refers to errant drivers. The MiVue 792 is no stranger to the darkness either. Being the company's most advanced dashcam to date, it boasts enhanced night time video capability that is comparable to night-vision quality. This is thanks to a top-of-the-range optic sensor with sensitivity that goes beyond visible light and into the near-infrared range. An operating temperature of between -10 degrees Celsius and 60 degrees Celsius ensures this alpha is always ready to pounce in both the blistering heat and in freak monsoon weather. And in case it needs the extra storage, the MiVue 792 is able to support microSD cards with capacities of up to 128GB. Should you wish to have a keepsake of your travels, the 792 features integrated Wi-Fi capabilities, which allow you to transfer your recordings to your smartphone for added storage or simply for sharing your experiences on social media via the MiVue app. Transfer recordings to your smartphone at the touch of a button Dressed to the (ca)nines You may be thinking, "These numbers sure sound impressive, but is that all it can do?" No, the 792 plays the role of watchdog as well, thanks to a host of driver assistance systems such as Lane Departure Warning, Fatigue Warning and Forward Collision Warning. Not only that, the watchdog can keep an eye on where you've been and log your routes in Google Maps via the MiVue Manager, which is a computer programme that allows for video playback, video sharing and directional analysis with the help of the 792's three-axis G-Sensor. The sensor detects sudden changes in motion and will instantly save a protected file that can't be overwritten in the unfortunate event of a crash. And just like the Mio MiVue 658 Wi-Fi, the MiVue 792 comes with parking mode recording, which records while the car is parked. This, of course, requires the MiVue Smart Box Cable. It is an optional add-on purchase, monitors the amperage of the car's battery and cuts off the power when it drops below a pre-set value. This is a failsafe that the guys over at Mio have come up with to ensure the dash cam doesn't drain your car battery while it is parked overnight. With the help of the MiVue Smart Box Cable, the MiVue 792 is able keep a lookout even when you're not there The Mio MiVue 792 comes as a standalone front-facing dashcam, with the option to add on the MiVue A30 rear camera. The optional MiVue A30 rear camera is as good as having eyes in the back of your head https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W3FdBmj3GL8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QfuY6EOepl0 Distributed by: NaviCom Technology Pte Ltd Click for List of Authorised Dealers For more information on the Mio MiVue 792, please visit the Mio website.

  22. Any users for the above mentioned here? Any feedback or review?
  23. Hi guys, I am looking at purchasing a dashcam in the upcoming IT show and I hope the gurus around here can enlighten me and point me in the right direction. The three models I am looking at are the Thinkware X500, Marbella QB6 and Blackvue DR650GW-2CH. I heard thinkware is super reliable. It has all the bells and whistles but the price is a bummer. The specs of the QB6 looks good and the videos look decent and can get the job done. Best thing is the price for 2CH full HD. However i would like to know its reliability, maybe based on past models because this is a new model. The Blackvue DR650 has the best form factor. However, I read online that the back camera sometimes turns totally purple. Blackvue also has quite a bad problem with heat. The most overheating problems come from Blackvue units. Having said all these, I am still a newbie at dashcams and hope you guys can help me out. Which should i pick and why? Also may I know approx how long do these cams last? Thanks a ton in advance
