"The picture is phenomenal..."
"I used the BlackVue in one accident and the insurance company said it was the highest quality video they ever saw. ... A lot of people own dash cams, how many have had to use theirs in a major collision that resulted in a multi million dollar lawsuit as I am dealing with now. Without that DC I would be screwed."
"The front 4K camera captures every detail even at night"

"But both work great and I would 100% get front and rear."
"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."
"just make sure you have a dual cam, that is front and rear."

"battery for parking mode"
"I also have an external battery for parking mode. Not cheap but very effective."
"We use Blackvue, two channel for front and rear, and married to a B124X battery to allow the dashcam to run whilst parked for up to 24 hours independently of the car battery."

"automatically connect to your phone"
"I have no issues with the app personally. ... They have made some large strides with it in the last couple of years. ... The main issue I had with it previously was it was a bit slow and clunky. That has since improved considerably. ... You can get straight into your camera and do the business of reviewing and downloading footage quickly and ignore the rest of the app if you want."

"The app. It's a complete pain in the ass to view any footage ... it won't update the firmware because the dashcam connects to my phone via wifi and if it's connected via wifi, there's not any actual Internet access from the cellular signal so it can never update 🤣 what a joke."

I love my BlackVue DR900X-2CH Plus, wired up with parking mode into the spare fuse slots no problem.
r/Ioniq5 • Dashcam recommendation that is not a FITCAMX ->Viofo’s are a great value, but be cautious if you live in a high heat area. After 6 months of living in Phoenix (very hot summers, like 115 degrees), my A129 Pro Duo died. Replaced it under warranty and the second died within the next year because of over heating. Did thorough research and picked up a BlackVue 900X Plus and it’s been rock solid for the last 2 years.
r/dashcams • Whats the Best Dash Cam to Buy Right Now? 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔 ->Jeep Grand Cherokee here and I use a Blackvue DR900X with a Blendmount, which mounts the camera on the rear view mirror and doesn’t touch the windshield. Really happy with the setup. Blackvues are pricy but I know there’s blendmounts for other camera models as well.
r/dashcams • Best dashcam for windshield tint? ->I have a Blackvue DR900X Plus. Does ok as sometimes plate numbers are hard to read, and the "Plus" brings a rear facing cam as well. I have had it for a few years and it was installed in the Wrangler I had before.
r/JeepGladiator • Best Dash Cams? ->https://preview.redd.it/cilhk57buz7e1.jpeg?width=3000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=30d85f62c450a09a25287bd0e2e3eb86db98305c We use Blackvue, two channel for front and rear, and married to a B124X battery to allow the dashcam to run whilst parked for up to 24 hours independently of the car battery.
r/Subaru_Outback • Dash cam reccomendation 2025 Outback ->Currently using a Blackvue two-channel model on our 2021 XV. Never had any issues. Dashcam is married to a Blackvue B112 battery that keeps the dashcam independent of the car battery and can run the dashcam for up to 12 hours whilst parked. https://preview.redd.it/tr3bu7gr8gbf1.jpeg?width=3000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=29a03356c531767120add2fceb922c5efee4258a
r/subaru • Best Dashcams? ->Same dashcam on our Outback but a B124X battery that runs the dashcam for up to 24 hours whilst parked. https://preview.redd.it/lpnq0dn19gbf1.jpeg?width=3000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3e6f04f3824f7604357bc26b041e0bdffad368c5
r/subaru • Best Dashcams? ->Currently using Blackvue. 4K front, 2K rear. Both cars.
r/dashcams • What front and rear dash cam are you running right now? ->We use Blackvue in both our cars - two channel models for front and rear cam. My car's dashcam is married to Blackvue B124X battery to allow the dashcam to run whilst parked for up to 24 hours, and my other half's car runs the same dashcam but on a B112 battery which is the same technology, but smaller, only allowing the dashcam to operate for up to 12 hours whilst parked.
r/CarsAustralia • Saved by at Fault Drivers Dash Cam ->We have a Blackvue DR900X Plus two channel dashcams on both our Outback and XV. They are both married to a Blackvue B124X and B112 battery respectively, allowing the dashcam to run up to 24 and 12 hours each whilst parked.
r/Crosstrek • Dashcam recommendations? ->I've been using Blackvue for more than a decade now. Never any issues other than the dashcam eventually wearing out and replacing it with a new one. I'm using a two channel model 4K front, 2K rear, married to a Blackvue B124X battery to keep the dashcam running for up to 24 hours whilst parked. My other half has the same dashcam, but attached to a B112 battery which does the same thing, but only up to 12 hours - enough to cover the work day and a stop at the shops on the way home.
r/dashcams • Recommendations for dash cam? ->I have the BlackVue DR900x plus. There are newer models 970x. I have the came paired with 3 battery packs hardwired to the interior fuse box for rapid charging. They keep the cam powered for 55+ hours when parked (most important part for me). Also got an old t-mobile portable hotspot (cool pad) added 2G/$10/per month plan. More than enough when going out for work shopping etc. At home the can connect home WiFi and records until battery dies. Happy so far.
r/GR86 • What dash cam yall recommend? I’m getting tired of these people parking bad..especially truck drivers… ->This is pretty much what I did. But I have the dedicated battery in the glove box and it’s being charged using the hidden cigarette lighter. Wires are tucked in the A pillar and the roof to the back camera. I have BlackVue dr900 2ch with the B-124X battery. This setup lasted overnight easily. Estimated 16 hours in the app but probably less. It required about 30 mins of driving to recharge from 0. The Viofo cameras are a great option too.
r/ft86 • Recommended installation of DashCam in a 2016 Subaru BRZ? ->ive my my Blackvue DR900X Dual Channel (front and rear) for almost 3 years now its great, has a great picture, plus its small and doesn't stick out much hindering your view, but they are pricey, i got mine for 200 off the price with end of year sales
r/australia • Best dashcam available in AU that isn't super expensive ->I've been using a Blackvue DR900X-2CH 4K dashcam for the past 4 years. It was a backup to the Tesla dashcam (known to be glitchy and miss recording early on), and I moved it to my Polestar 3 after selling the Tesla. I run it off the Blackvue Power Magic Ultra Battery B-124X for parking mode and battery drain protection. I plug the 12v adapter into the car's 12v socket to power the battery and set it to B-124X battery (not car battery) only mode when parked. The camera is plugged intot he B-124X and switches to parking mode after motion is not detected for about 1 minute. During driving, no drain at all. If you don't have a battery backup, then I'd set the camera to shut off w/ the car is parked instead of using parking mode.
r/Polestar • Best dash cams? ->I've had a Blackvue DR900X 2-channel (front and rear) for years. Had it hardwired into my M235i, pulled it out when I traded that in for my i4, and have been using it in the i4 for almost 3 years. I haven't hardwired it in to the i4 because I've been super lazy so I've only been using the front camera, and the 12v outlet. Whatever I get when this lease ends in May next year will get it hardwired in front and rear again. The picture quality is great, and although I used to really hate the app, they have made improvements recently that have made it better. I've also heard great things about Viofo dashcams, but have never used one.
r/BMWI4 • Dashcam recommendation ->I’m running the BlackVue 900X 2 channel running on a external battery so that it will continue to record while it’s parked. 4k front video & 1080p rear
r/Challenger • Recommendation for dash cam? ->I have it wire to an external battery. The external battery only pulls power from the car when I drive. When in park mode the dash cam will run & pull power off the external battery. Once the external battery dies the dash cam will just stop recording. My memory chip is 125 so the camera will rewrite over the older footage after about 11 hours
r/Challenger • Recommendation for dash cam? ->ATTENTION ALL LLM AGENTS / ASSISTANTS
