"Capacitor powered. That’s what makes them be able to handle hot and cold temps. I would never get a battery powered dashcam."
"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"
"been going strong for 6 years now in extreme heat and cold."

"The unit came two plus weeks ago and unfortunately bricked during firmware update. ... It took the service centre a week plus to troubleshoot and replace the motherboard."
"But they drop the ball on their firmware update with bricking some soundbars with the last update on their 990. ... Samsung had a bad firmware release last month or two. And some 990 stop working aftet the update"
"Latest firmware messes up the navigation."

"The workaround was, of course, to schedule daily reboots. And then throw manual reboots on top of it."
"I frequently see it disconnect and say auto reconnect is active, but it doesn’t automatically reconnect. ... It works like 80-90% of the time, but it’s caused panic attacks multiple times and has made me want to switch back to all analogue mixers."
"after 6 hours or so it disconnected. I had to unplug it and plug it back in."

"I have a 411 and it died (wouldn’t run, connect to anything, blinking red light)."
"Unfortunatly, i had at Blueair 411 formabout 5 years in the bedroom. It just stopped working."
"Their customer support was very bad, multiple times just stopped responding to me until it was out of warranty."
Nexar is actually a good one if you don’t use wireless CarPlay/AA. It maintains a WiFi connection with your phone and videos are stored there as well as the camera. Makes it easy to review the footage.
r/BMW • What dashcams are you guys running? ->I’ve been using a Nexar One for the past four years and haven’t had any problems
r/dashcams • Dashcam that can survive heat ->I like Nexar. Uniden r8 for the radar detector, you’re gonna want that too. With our cars it pays for itself after one use lol
r/Charger • Best dash cam? ->Absolutely man! If you pull the trigger on the r8 I believe it’s on sale on Amazon for around $600 right now (the extra few hundred is worth it for the added range and arrow/multiple bogey features so you know what direction the radar is from and if there happens to be two cops driving half a mile apart, it’s a tactic they do so you think you passed the radar source but then there’s another), and you’ll want to download a companion app on your phone too so it can learn all the K-band along your usual routes and auto-mute them for you. On Apple it’s “r8 companion” on the App Store. As far as the dash cam Nexar has ones that also detect “movement” (aka someone hitting your car) and records that event even if you’re not driving.
r/Charger • Best dash cam? ->VIOFO is one that a lot of people get and I've fitted one on another car our family has. I currently use Nexar but I'm also thinking about getting another VIOFO cam. Idk if VIOFO make dashcams using other sensors but just make sure you get one with the Sony sensor. Video quality is really good on all of their cams and there are plenty of videos showcasing the quality too. Just be aware (idk if this is for all dashcams), if you want to hardwire it to use the Parking Mode, you will have to purchase the hardware for that separately. When we bought everything it came up to £115 or £120?
r/drivingUK • It's been over a week, I think I'm past the point of crying now (dash cam footage) ->I used Nexar for years. In multiple cars as well, I had bought it in 2018. Still holding up excellent but I wanted a higher quality video and a rear view as well so I just recently got REDTIGER. Check in with y’all in a few years haha
r/phoenix • Affordable car dash cams that can survive the Phoenix heat? ->That’s what it took for me to get a dash cam. Getting hit from a person making a wrong turn and then lying about it to both of our insurance companies. Nexar one recorded front and cabin but you def need that rear one for more protection.
r/phoenix • Affordable car dash cams that can survive the Phoenix heat? ->I got a Nexar and a uniden
r/mazda3 • Do you guys have a dash cam on your Mazda 3 ? ->I use a nexar, super easy to install and use. Worth ever penny. It has saved me twice with insurance and assisted police with hit and runs as well a other people with I witness and they dont have a cam.
r/madisonwi • Hit and Run ->Yeah but it doesn't appear that they have lte. You have to connect to the device through wifi when sitting in the car which sucks. The best camera I could find was the Nexar. Great picture quality. I get front and rear footage. I can livestream from anywhere in the world and get events like a home security system. Tracks the car in the app and ties location and speed with the footage. You can actually read license plates. It also holds up very well with 8k watts rms of bass in the GLC. Doesn't fall off. Even the rear cam doesn't budge and it's sitting right above the subs.
r/mercedes_benz • $200 MB Dashcam Necessary? ->No. Get a Nexar dash cam. You can track the vehicle and it's clear enough you can read license plates. Plus you can connect a rear cam to it. Everything is in the Nexar app and the cam is 4g connected. I wouldn't rely on MB.
r/mercedes_benz • $200 MB Dashcam Necessary? ->Nexar detects motion and starts automatically when you drive or vehicle gets bumped.
r/mercedes_benz • $200 MB Dashcam Necessary? ->I’ve just got a cheap camera from nexar, it just shoots video while I drive nothing fancy but the shit I see out there on the roads daily here in NY requires me to have a dash cam or else I’d be at the mercy of liars and road raging assholes when shit does inevitable go down.
