BlackVue - DR970X-2CH Plus II

If you want reliable coverage for front, rear, and parking on your SUV, I’d go with the [BlackVue DR900X-2CH](https://www.amazon.com/BlackVue-DR970X-2CH-Plus-Dash-Cam/dp/B0FH29PRZ6?crid=166TI0P3TDLZJ&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.CnTc9mqR6P7H7DVSPbQPoygPHddq2zYY4LuRVuOJUkzwyPkD4GwagA1aCYXbHIiRmajPJYcnGz5Eme3tvONtSW4NgQv8ZqONtapHLB23XyfNZfyLRcuSGT7-avVrpqGuG2JP_CQN_rXMoroNSJ4uJhxhoKuzYdJpL-mbKHwOSi8UCruGbslpw6jQYAyqRFdTIubtEltFB7RbkcgSl-XkjfyH0rk_JH71jsZDNzuMrYY.lWw_gYk6orfnugFkoB74XWGdHV98P6Gm5HW_TbK2hp0&dib_tag=se&keywords=BlackVue%2BDR900X-2CH%2BPlus&qid=1761674120&sprefix=blackvue%2Bdr900x-2ch%2Bplus%2Caps%2C185&sr=8-1-spons&sp_csd=d2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9hdGY&th=1&linkCode=ll1&tag=drxth-20&linkId=13c744c027589c74e976e4d5e957d25a&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_tl). The front camera records in 4K, the rear in Full HD, and it has a dedicated parking mode that won’t drain your battery thanks to its voltage monitoring. The video quality is excellent day or night, and with BlackVue Cloud you can check on your car remotely, which is great for peace of mind. It’s a bit of an investment, but it’s one of the most dependable all-in-one systems for comprehensive coverage.

A dashcam is your get out jail pass it is ESSENTIAL. It’s another form of insurance As long as you properly mount it and it sees what it needs too and provides the correct date and speed. It will protect you from others that insurance fraud/scam. Some also have parking mode which will capture and record anyone that does a hit and run or looks too sketchy lurking around your car. I bought a cheap one on Amazon thinking it was enough. It failed, when I needed it the most. So I invested in a $700 CDN one. Blackvue DR970x Front and Rear camera

Bought a blackvue dual front & back camera with parking mode. Watched YouTube videos of day and night performance and readability of license plates. Video clips are corded in 60 second increments with overlap start and finish. Last month got rear ended by person on the phone. They didn’t know I had a camera and they called the cops. 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.

The WIFI connectivity in any dashcam is strictly to provide a faster data transfer speeds when accessing your recorded video clips on the camera. The use of bluetooth is too slow to stream or download large video files. Bluetooth on a dashcam is primarily for pairing your smartphone with the dashcam. In the event of an accident, having Wifi on your dashcam enables you to download the recorded clip onto your smartphone so that you can show it the cop when they show up and prove you are not at fault. In order for your dashcam to access the internet, it would require a cellular sim card connection or for some dashcams an LTE module. Most new dashcam user associate WIFI with Internet. Which is misleading. I use the the BlackVue DR970X-2CH Plus II 4K with Front & Rear camera. I also use the included app to download the clips. My dashcam wifi is turned off after each use.

i bought the Blackvue DR970X 2 Channel Front & Rear3 years ago. it sits at the top of the windshield above the rear view mirror attached directly to the windshield. it’s hard wired and will shut off in parking mode if the car battery voltage dips to a preset voltage, alternatively there are external power cell batteries facilitate parking mode.

Blackvue DR970X Dual Channel (Front & Rear cameras) Stopped at a traffic light on a slight hill, vehicle behind me was on their phone. Thru the rear view mirror watched as the car behind inched closer and closer then they hit my rear tire carrier and scraped their front hood against my tire carrier. Both pulled over and the other driver went all karen with speed dialing the police. as that was happening i was downloading the dashcam video onto my ipad for viewing thru the dashcam app. Police arrived, woman was being very dramatic and said I backed into her and she got whiplash and yadda yadda yadda. When the officer approached me I showed him the camera footage and the dashcam data, force of impact by the woman’s car etc. shared the video to the office on the spot. officer walked to her and she became more dramatic, oscar worthy!!! when the officer explained to the woman that he viewed the dashcam footage she stopped being dramatic, gave the finger salute and got back her car as if nothing happened and told the both of us to fuck off and satan would avenge. officer told me i could leave, gave me his card if there were any problems. the 2nd incident while vehicle was parked in the street and motion sensors tripped along with an impact detection, got a notification on my phone of a hit and run attempt. captured on dashcam parking mode. dashcam paid for itself. if your looking for a dashcam, check video footage reviews where you can see the quality of the dashcam. especially at night, rain, fog etc.

I have a BlackVue DR-970X Plus LTE 2ch with parking mode battery but I had it professionally installed.

Bought the Blackvue 970x LTE 2CH for my old truck and swapping it put into my new truck this week. Don't be put off by the pricing or plans - I just use the cloud free version and it works just fine. Got an LTE sim from my cell provider and slapped it in there. Camera clarity day and night has been excellent. Saw another nod for the Vantrue which was my second choice and ended up just going with the Blackvue because my guy who helps me with my truck recommended it because he installs a ton of them. There are a few sites out there that compare all of the top brands and current versions that detail out the pros/cons of each one - best to just make your choice from there and what features matter the most to you.

I went with a Blackvue 970X-2CH Box. Liked that this unit had a control module that you can mount under the dash or other location. For me I wanted 2 cameras, parking mode, and high quality video in as small of a package as possible. This met that need. I have the Mountains 2 Metal attic shelf and was able to mount the rear camera to that. (I’ve got a soft top)

Head over to r/dashcam for some good recommendations.  The BlackVue DR970X-2CH was what we went with.

I had a Blackvue DR970x-2CH professionally installed. The front cam is not visible from the driver's seat (it's hidden from view by the rear view mirror). I can see the rear cam in the rear view mirror but it's not problematic at all. All interaction with the cam is done via the app while I'm in the car (I didn't opt for the LTE option which allows for remote access).

I had a Blackvue DR970x 2CH professionally installed and I've had no problems. I only care about recording when I'm driving so I have it configured to shut down when the car is off, so no issues with draining the battery. I've checked in once in a while to make sure it's actually recording but so far I've had no need to download video.

I just upgraded from the 900x 2ch to the 970x 2ch earlier this year. BlackVue is the best premium dashcam imo.

I just got the Blackvue dr970x 2 ch installed yesterday. Hardwired to the 12v battery for parking mode. https://preview.redd.it/8655rx0uhkme1.jpeg?width=1206&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c45a2daa517c4b81bc7e83e1cdb8fa00126a210d

I've got a Blackvue DR970x-2ch. The newer version of it is the DR979x-2ch Plus II. This has the Sony Starvis 2 sensor like recommended in other posts. They're very reliable cameras since they don't have batteries in them. Dash Cams with batteries stand a higher chance of exploding in the heat of a parked car. Make sure you use a high endurance micro sd card since the camera deletes the oldest videos as time goes by. The card will have a ton of reads and writes so the basic cards won't cut it. You set the cameras up with your phone and the images from the cameras will show on the screen. This is how you'll align the cameras to make sure they get the best view. Check the videos on the card or the live feed from the cameras from time to time to make sure everything is still working.
