Rexing - V1

I had a Viofo A119S. In the first year it quit working several times. Customer support sucked. Within 12 months the GPS stopped working, then it stopped receiving power. I opened it up and fixed the supply cable and it worked again til just after the first 12 months, then the unit died completely. Really disappointing lack of support. I've heard a lot of rave reviews about their customer support, but definitely was shit in my experience. That said, I have installed these in my 2 Outbacks, and about to order it for my WRX since it's a great deal right now.

I've been running variations of the v1 for almost 9 years. Very happy with them

I have rexing V1 variants.

I have a Rexing V1 which is hardwired into passenger footwell fuse panel. There is also an easier way to plug directly into rearview mirror power supply. I don’t know if that way allows it to work when the power is off.

I’ve been using the [Rexing](https://a.co/d/fEcUJaC) V1 for about 4 years. Never had an issue, set it and forget it. You genuinely don’t need tons of WiFi, Bluetooth, features that jack up the price. You’ll probably never need to touch it after setting it up once.

I live in Houston (very hot) and have used the Rexing V1 for about 5 years. Never had a problem with it. I buy adapters from Dongar Technologies so I can power the dash cam off the rearview mirror. If you mount the dash cam where it is obscured from the driver's view by the rearview mirror, you won't even know it is there.

I got a Rexing V1 for my newer CR-V, my other older car has a Viofo A119. Don't like the Rexing because maybe once or twice a month, it loses all the configurations and resets itself to Jan 1, 2022, even though it is hardwired to the car. I feel like it's a burden having to reconfigure as new every time. I wish I had bought another Viofo model.

I bought a Rexing V1 dashcam during black friday sales off Amazon, and powered it via USB-C under the armrest, using an extended 15 foot Mini-USB to USB-A cable, with USB-A to USB-C adapter.

I installed a Rexing V1 4K dashcam in my wife's 2024 CX-30. We only have the front camera, but these have a provision for plugging a second, rear facing camera in, and recording off both simultaneously. The only tricky part for installation, was buying a longer cable to send power to the dashcam. I ended up buying a 15-foot mini-USB to USB-A cable to run from the camera, down the passenger A-pillar, behind the passenger kick panel, under the glove box, under the center console trim, and up under the center armrest. Then I bought a USB-A to USB-C adapter to plug into one of the USB-C ports under the center armrest. Works great!

I bought a Rexing V1 4k dashcam. I bought it because I had them in a few other vehicles with excellent results. However, I installed it in my wife's CX-30 using the following cables and adapters. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B075SCMHQ8?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_title. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B07TJ38SDW?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_title

I was using a Rex front and rear which was great, but I got a battery warning once even though it was plugged in with the Dongar. I pulled it rather than risking a dead battery or fault

I bought all my Rexing dashcams before joining this sub. I'm not defending them, but I do have a different experience. I'm currently running 3 with no issues. These 3 were purchased between 2021 and 2022. The very first Rexing I got lasted a little over a year, but that one had a battery. It still worked, actually, but the parking monitoring did not, so I replaced it. The 3 newer ones all have super capacitors I believe.
