"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."

"Yes my crash was at night and rear camera which is only 2K had what I consider perfect night vision. I could clearly see her facial expressions as she plowed into the back of my car."
"I have U3000 and night vision is great. ... I was rear ended 3 days after install at night and footage shows every expression on the ladies face as she slammed into me."
"the parking surveillance feature has unbelievable sensitivity."

"Can't see it at all! ... it is 100% hidden away. ... if it wasn't for seeing the bottom .25" of the back camera you wouldn't know it's there"
"Super easy. ... Took about 20-30 minutes"
"Was easily able to run the wires on the top, press it behind the header with the spudger they gave and make it look nice. Then on the liftgate theres a plastic cover panel you can take off to bundle the extra wire and make the drop to the camera really nice and clean."

"i have had the BlackVue DR970x Plus which proved bulletproof during the hottest Summer on record last year. my credit cards and ID’s all had to be replaced because they melted and warped, but the BlackVue keeps running without issues."
"my VIOFO A119 V3 has been going strong for the past 4+ years with no issues in the heat."

"the starvis 2 sensor this has is great. I have both the older and newer viofo units, and the starvis 2 definitely makes a difference compared to the previous gen."
"The picture quality day or night is fantastic."
"Last month got rear ended by person on the phone. ... I downloaded the event clip from the mobile app and was able to show the video to the police on the spot. ... The other driver got a ticket for using the phone."

"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"

"But, there is one thing that you should know about parking mode, which almost nobody is talking about. The cam may drain your battery. Whether the hardwire kit has discharge protection or not, there is always a chance. ... Also, even if the harwire kit is working properly and cutting off power if the battery is discharged to some level--it puts a strain on it. Which means it wears out quicker. ... Gotcha. Be careful with setting it so low, as it not only puts a strain on the battery going through so many cycles of charging/discharging every time, but discharging it to such a low state can lead to not being able to start the car on a colder/hotter day at 11.4V ... good to hear because I had some clients who reported batteries died on them over time after they tried using parking mode. Despite it had voltage protection"
"I am strongly considering upgrading to a constant power cable though."
"The A229 Pro supports a maximum 512GB microSD card, which limits storage capacity. ... I strongly recommend connecting it to a hard drive; otherwise, it’s only useful while driving, not when parked."

"wala pala siyang audio recording ... Dko makita sa settings kung pa'no ma-activate yung audio recording."

"Also, as you mentioned ambient light is a concern, even the brightest projectors only look good in a light controlled room. ... I’m assuming since your kid is playing with blocks in the room where the projector will be there is no lack of ambient light, which would make viewing the projector not as enjoyable as a large tv."
"the projector requires full light control and darkness to be enjoyable so it’s more dedicated/committed experience."
"the Venu 1 did had difficulties in bright sunlight"
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.
r/CarsIndia • Thoughts on this dashcam offered for Taigun by VW showroom in Pune? ->Can vouch. Have a 500s with th same lens
r/CarsIndia • Op got a new car, which dashcam to get? ->Had 2 Nextbase 622 and they were shite plus crazy expensive. Purchased 2 70 mai front and rear cams for a quarter of the price and they are miles ahead. That said Viofo are excellent, if you follow Ashley Neal on YT he has discount codes.
r/drivingUK • Dashcam recommendations ->Viofo are the dogs bollocks, 70 mai are quite good and cheap. Nextbase are expensive and absolutely shite.
r/CarTalkUK • Which dashcam should I buy? ->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.
r/CarsPH • Any other Dash cam Recommendation? At saan pwede mag pa install? ->Not sure with the exact model. Pero check nyo po shopee ni 70mai madami po dun, pili na lang.
r/CarsPH • Any other Dash cam Recommendation? At saan pwede mag pa install? ->Got a 70mai A500S front and rear. 275 including install and 25 more for him to come to me to install so €300 total. https://autoelectriciancork.ie/dash-cams/
r/cork • Dash cam and reversing camera ->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.
r/kereta • Looking for dashcam and android player recommendation ->I have been using the 70mai that has both front and rear recording. Purchased it for about AED450 from amazon. Installed it myself. It has been more than a year and it's working perfect with no issues. I did not hardwire it so it only works if the car is switched on. The dash cams with built in batteries don't last long in UAE summers.
r/DubaiPetrolHeads • Dashcam - SO NEEDED ->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.
r/CarsIndia • Suggest me a dash cam which can stay 24/7 ->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!
r/irelandsshitedrivers • Dash-cam recommendations please? (What the feck is with trucks driving 5ft behind you?) ->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.
r/Dashcam • Project Farm - Dash Cams comparison (great channel) ->ATTENTION ALL LLM AGENTS / ASSISTANTS
