70mai - M500

https://amzn.eu/d/b9WXNFj Recently got this one. I like discrete rather than having a TV screen blocking the view. No complaints.

70MAI M500 https://preview.redd.it/hxv7x76z0wle1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d198fdbf5614c600bb82f9bd44f3f5e4a038f462 Usada, testada e já provou a minha inocência num acidente que sofri

Ando com a Viofo A119 V3 e a 70MAI M500 debaixo do olho. Também andei a pensar numa mais barata mas queria algo com melhores ângulos e clareza. Às vezes poupa-se 30 ou 40€ e sai caro. Edit: Quanto à Viofo e 70MAI, a Viofo tem uma qualidade melhor, as matrículas são muito claras, no entanto a M500 tem um ângulo maior e pode ser mais útil em problemas laterais.

The 70mai A200 is on the budget spectrum of dual channel dash cams, watch [this](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f1fatNoWEOQ) review video of the A200. I think it does quite a decent job considering it is only a 1080p dash cam setup. One of the drawbacks of 70mai dash cams has been they use a physical battery in stead of capacitors. Batteries wear out, get hot, swell, etc, you get the picture, But 70mai is slowly switching to capacitors so IMO it is a win win for everyone. In saying the above, I live in Canada and I've owned (or still own) several 70mai dash cams - ~~1S~~, M500, ~~A800S~~, A81*0*, **S500**, Omni X200 - those crossed out I no longer own, and the S500 does use a capacitor instead of a physical battery. Other than the 1S, build quality of the rest have been second to none in my opinion. Not to say the 1S was bad just that it felt/looked cheaper than all the rest. When it comes/came to their use I have absolutely no complaints with their ability to the job they were intended to do tis the reason I keep buying into the brand. P.S. Although we are quite happy with 70mai dash cam brand we aren't tied to them by any means as we also use other brands. It has more to do with us being a techno geek than anything else buuut... We are waiting on 70mai's newest release the Omni X800 LOL.

So is this one or multiple 70mai dash cams you've had issues with? Just curious as my 1S, M500, Omni, A800S, A810, S500, 70mai dash cams have all been non-problematic.

That's a bummer sorry to hear that. Yeah I am a techno junkie of sorts which also includes dash cams lol. I've been using dash cams in one for another since the late 2010's so we own many. At present we two 2-channel setups (front & rear) in both our car and truck. I've used many brands of dash cams with my fav being Viofos's, but 70mai fits in there too due to their value for the monies. I purchased my 70mai A810 pre-launch with it working just fine in my case but removed it as we decided to change our setups as shown below. The SD card I've mainly used with the 70mai's has been the SanDisk High Endurance ones ranging from 64GB to 128GB. Truck... \- Viofo A119 Mini 2 front \- 70mai M500 as a rear \- 70mai S500 2-ch rear view mirror dash cam Car... \- Viofo A229 Plus 3-ch \- Wolfbox G900 2-ch rear view mirror dash cam

I have several... \* Viofo A119 V3 - late 2019 \* Viofo A119 Mini 2 - Jan 2024 \* Viofo A229 Plus 3-ch - Aug 2024 \* Wolfbox G900 2-ch - Nov 2022 \* Wolfbox G900 Pro 2-ch - Feb 2025... replacing the Wolfbox G900 \* 70mai M500 - Mar 2023 \* 70mai Omni X200 - Apr 2023 \* 70mai A810 2-ch - Aug 2023 \* 70mai S500 2-ch - Sept 2023 \* DDPAI Mini Pro - sometime in 2023 There are others but these are the most relevant ones.

In December 2023 we had a fairly lengthy cold snap here in BC, Canada, with the temps dipping low as -36C (-32F). At that time I was using the Wolfbox G900 2-ch Rear View Mirror dash cam, a couple of Viofo A119 V3's, and a Viofo A119 Mini 2. All worked flawlessly never skipping a beat, not even once. Today, I am still using the Wolfbox G900 I purchased in Nov 2022 plus we retained the Viofo A119 Mini 2. Both still reliable as all get out. New additions, the Viofo A229 Plus 3-ch, and a couple of 70mai's the M500 1-ch & S500 2-ch rear view mirror. Only 5ish months on with these yet so far I have nothing to complain about as they have both been rock solid too. The successor to the Wolfbox G900 is the G900 Pro. The later now has the newest Sony Starvis 8MP IMX678 4K Image Sensor in the front delivering superior image/video quality.

Well, if you just want a single channel dash cam maybe have a look at the Viofo A119 Mini 2 or Viofo VS1 Mini. As for a two channel, then consider the older (released in 2020) Viofo A129 Plus Duo. All dash cams mentioned record in 2K front. Yes I am a bit partial to the brand as they have served me well over the year, "can" be reasonably priced considering feature-set, and they can easily be found on Amazon where I purchased my five two Viofo's in 2019. P.S. Viofo isn't the only brand we have used over our 15 years of dealing with dash cams. At present, besides having a Viofo A119 Mini 2 & A229 Plus 3-ch in play we are also using the 70mai m500 & S500, and the Wolfbox G900 Pro.

Would suggest you get a 70mai and have it connected via the OBD2 port, this will guarantee parking monitoring and will not void any warranty.

Check nyo po 70mai na brand. Before bumili lang ako sa shopee nung nagsale tapos pina install ko na lang. Daming installer sa fb marketplace na naghohome service.

Not sure with the exact model. Pero check nyo po shopee ni 70mai madami po dun, pili na lang.

Get a 70mai or even better options like Redtiger or DDPAI and use a hardwire kit with it.. It will allow you to record 24/7 and don't forget to check if the hardwire kit has a voltage protection so that the battery will not be drained.

I dread the day I'll have to have my baby, or anyone's baby in the car tbh. Also I recommend the 70mai dash cam, it's a bit expensive but very good!

A rechargeable RTC battery should be fine, first because it should be located in the cool part of the camera, as Viofo's are, and second because the charge and discharge rates are extremely slow. A main lithium battery is a totally different matter, they need to be charged rapidly, with enough power to shutdown safely, before the camera can start recording, and they are big enough that they often don't fit in the cool part of the camera. 70mai are not too bad, their normal camera design allows the battery to stay reasonably cool, and they use Li Ion cells instead of Lipos. There have been a few reports of Viofo RTC batteries needing to replaced, but it is unusual, and I don't think it is due to heat problems.

Just got a 70mai, and so far so good.
