Thinkware from Canada, get dual channel aka front and rear. They have nice features like battery voltage cut down to save your car battery or parking/driving recording when hardwired.
r/drivingUK • Dashcam ->They are but worth it in my opinion, especially the extra features they come with, like the battery voltage monitor I mention earlier
r/drivingUK • Dashcam ->I second this. They did a great job - picked up a Thinkware front and rear dash cam set.
r/Dallas • Recs for dashcam install? ->I tapped mine into the power above the mirror. Different Hyundai, but same concept.
r/Hyundai • Dash Cam Inquiry ->Thinkware brand. I don't know the model offhand, but it's a front and rear unit and works very well.
r/Hyundai • Dash Cam Inquiry ->For the most part, dashcams have the same internals, so do your research. I'm sure there's newer videos, but I remember LTT did a roundup pointing this out a while ago. A few years ago I ended up getting a Thinkwear "brand" front and rear.
r/Frugal • Thinking about getting a dashcam worth it? ->Go to r/dashcams and/or blackboxmycar.com. That is where I went. I bought my own and took it to a local shop for the install. Make sure to check with the shop that they will install something else if you don't buy from them. I am running a Thinkware 4k front and 2k rear dual channel set up. I did have to buy a little mounting bracket off of Amazon to mount the rear camera, but there are plenty of options. Mine just had some small screws to help secure it. I am loving it so far and I hope to only need it to record drives though some amazing locations and not have to worry about a wreck again.

r/4Runner • Looking for Dashcam recommendations ->I have been running a thinkware front and back combo for over 5 years now with no issues. It even saved me in court once after an idiot crashed into me and lied about it.
r/CarTalkUK • Dashcams ->i dont rate the blackvues i think they are pretty rubbish i would actually buy the thinkware series heres why. 1. Its cheaper than Blackvue 2. It has excellent smart parking features like impact, motion sensors, radar, etc) 3. excellent image quality day and night. 4. One thing i really really like that i havent found other cameras have is speed camera/red light camera alerts... as you drive up to one it warns you and tells you theres speed cameras ahead... even in places like tunnels etc... i've got a U3000, U1000 and Arc in my 3 cars.. yes i tried different models to see which is better.. much of a muchness.. the ARC series is great value for money ... and very good.. thats my honest opinion.. ive used Blackvues before. decent competent cameras.. image quality is ok not the best... but tends to be buggy as well... my Blackvue stopped recording for some reason... wasnt writing to memory card.. had no idea why.. and when i needed it for a incident... i realised it wasnt recording anything.... no amount of resets reflashing fixed it...just not a fan of blackvue
r/CarsAustralia • Best dashcams in Australia that cost less than $250? Or should I just get a BlackVue one for $1.5k? ->There's no difference in installation between the two. It's a simple installation. Gey the ODB2 cable and it's simple to plug in. U3000 is better for low light.
r/Dashcam • Thinkware dashcam advice? Arc vs U3000 (or others) – best for install + filming car content ->You don't want the ARC. The hanging design of the ARC/Q200 (basically the same camera) doesn't look good in most vehicles with larger mirror housing. It uses omnivision image sensors, which will not perform as well as the u3000s Sony starvis 2. The u3000 radar technology is actually great for parking mode. Both install the same, u3000 looks better on the window. U3000 depending on where you buy it from will have the OBD2 cable included, however it has been removed from the box as they are redesigning it for wide car coverage. If you are in the Toronto area and the unit doesn't come with one, I have a box full of those obd2 plugs and can give you one.
r/Dashcam • Thinkware dashcam advice? Arc vs U3000 (or others) – best for install + filming car content ->To answer your actual question though, the ARC 700 is thinkwares latest "budget friendly" 4K UHD model which uses the body of a Q1000 and the tech from the U1000, but upgraded in both regards. You won't go wrong with anything from Thinkware
