"A good robovac is a life changer. Even a $350 basic S8. It is a great place to start. ... I promise you that you will not be disappointed by a basic S8. It will change your life even if it can't fit under every piece of furniture you own. ... My two S8s just finished vacuuming our entire house in about 46 minutes. ... While my floors were being cleaned, I sat comfortably on our patio in the cool shade with a slight breeze and composed my far too long response to you while sipping a diet soda and relaxing. ... I will have to spend about four minutes maintaining my two S8s. This will be my entire contribution to my home floor cleaning effort for today. Four minutes!"
"Like 500$ these robots are currently the steal of the century ... You can get a mova p10 pro ultra (cannot remove its mops), equivalent to the l40/x40 for 500$ after a discount code"
"I got the Q5 Pro for $139. ... costs $450 less than what I paid for the S6 ... it is the best value option out there imo."

"But I got 900 miles out of one pair of Lone Peaks on the PCT, and 750 from another pair."
"I had issue with Klymit losing air in cold temps and Tensor has been awesome."

"Reliability wise is was rock solid never having an ounce of issues with it through three winters and two whole summers."
"Yeah they are specifically better in the heat than other cameras because they use a super capacitor instead of a battery to do the final writing to the SD card when the power gets cut by your car. ... Batteries tend to have issues in extreme heat/cold"
"I've had a Viofo A129 for a couple of years now, and I leave it in the car 24/7 without issues despite the heat and cold."

"the parking surveillance feature has unbelievable sensitivity."
"A129 is plenty good enough ... even a fuzzy picture with front and rear coverage is enough to prove fault."
"If you hardwire it, it can even record 24/7 in low-power mode when the car is parked."

"GoPro is still the best action cam for fpv because it lets you record in 5.3k 8/7 aspect ratio. ... When you stabilize fpv footage you crop in this will make you loose resolution. ... If you want the image with the best quality possible go with gopro. ... Its better for cropping in post since you get a larger image."
"The picture quality is amazing ... the footage is really sharp"
"The GoPro has much better color science right out of the box."

"It does NOT handle the Florida heat at all. ... Constant shutdowns while driving and parked have rendered it absolutely useless. ... Viofo's solution? Kick it down to 1080 / 2k and hope works. It did not. ... The camera is seriously flawed."
"I don't trust them anymore with their built in capacitors that died."
"had a lot of issues with intermittent recordings on the 70mai"

"My DR970X Plus from JAN 2025 through JAN 2025 does NOT have HDR and is being returned immediately. ... HDR is not a fad, passing trend, or conspiracy pushed by Alex Jones. It the most basic item a camera must have to be useful at capturing details like license plates. ... Without HDR you might as well replace the recorded footage with the Windows 98 Bezier screensaver and extra-long mouse cursor trails. ... Recording a grainy blur in 4K is a high-quality grainy blur but it's still a grainy blur."
"The thinkware, while you can see a lot, is blown out so bad you can't make any license plates or signs out."
"it is still hard to read plates."
Automatic-Option-961 1.070mai. Midrange will do. A500s. I have been using for years. Recently add another one to my new car. Get the model with rear camera included. Rear camera is a must. Forget hardwire...will suck your car battery dry. Unless you park outside and live in Klang, it is not needed.
A500 is good enough. All the extra function above A500 is a waste and no use. Android Player: Vecaro ( i am using). Other popular brands, Mohawk, Dynavin, Stinger. Honestly, 360 camera is a waste of money for Myvi. Just install a good rear camera with minimum 1080p will do.
ColdColdMatcha 1.0Can vouch for a500s. Bought it 4 years ago and it served me well. No issues till date( fingers crossed)
Drycks 1.0Kung 70mai A500S yan, I think mas magandang alisin mo sa mount pag magtatagal ka na nakapark sa init, sa pagkakaalam ko, hindi pa Super capacitor yan, meron syang Lithium battery, di tulad ng super capacitor, it can withstand extreme heat and lower temps na kahit ibilad or mabilad sa init, hindi magkakaproblema in the long run. If hindi hassle alisin yung dashcam temporary slapra sayo, mas mainam na alisin mo muna siya parati.
elementlessmonster 1.0I've been using 70mai brand for 3 years now since I bought my car. 70mai a500s specifically. Camera quality is really good for its price, never had an issue ever since.
elyss0n 1.0On 70mai A510 on my daily and A500S on other car, both used to have Blackvues. One blackvue kept having SD car issues another stopped receiving signal from rear camera. I've had it with Blackvue. I also turn on the function on my A510 to let me know when cars ahead have started moving, I've turned off the other functions. Love it.
Independent-Tank-473 1.070mai a500s(https://amzn.eu/d/dq6qDVK) have this for almost 5 years now, bought from Amazon still works good. Take note that when I'm at work, my car is parked under the sun. You also you got the back camera as well. (A bit of challenging to install though) If you want to have the 24hrs monitor, get the hardwire kit but it gets technical. I'm only using the normal USB.
I also got the use for it on 2 minor accidents 🤣
KRiSX 1.0I’m quite a fan of 70mai cameras, cheap and good quality. Bought both mine off AliExpress and they’ve been great. I’ve got an a500s and an a510, the 510 is much newer, but not sure if that’s the current model or not. $113 delivered was what I paid for that one in 2024 and $133 for the older one back in 2022. They just connect in with an included 12v (cigarette lighter) adapter, they don’t have batteries (so only run when the car is on), but you can have them wired directly to your car battery if you know what you’re doing or can find someone to do it.
Longjumping_Fix_8223 1.070mai A500. Yung nabili ko, set na with rear cam and 64gb memory card, nasa Php 4,178.00. 2 years na sa akin and I have no complaints kahit gabi, malinaw.
I've been using my 70mai A500s for close to three years now, no complaints. Malinaw yung video, you can watch the footage on your phone din. I bought the set na may kasamang rear cam for Php 4,178. Sulit na sulit!
maple_story_ 1.0im a satisfied user of 70mai a500s for 3+ years already. Dashcam all still good. Battery still okay as well. Sidenote: my parking is shaded though. But even if the battery kaput can easily replace it with new ones, lots of tutorials out there.
MeasurementSure854 1.070mai a500s gamit ko for more than 2 years na. Goods pa din naman and ang napalitan ko lang yung internal battery nya since narereset na yung date and time. Not a fan of rear view mirror style na dashcams since gusto ko pa din magamit yung rearview mirror as intended. Pwede sya sa cigarette port or usb. On my Xpander, meron akong inverter sa likod na cigarette port. That inverter has 2 usb ports and 1 outlet. Dun sa usb port ng inverter ko sinaksak yung 70mai dashcam and pinagapang ko yung wires papunta sa harap sa mga gilid gilid. Same with the rear cam. Buti mahaba yung default wires ng 70mai.
