    something like this?

    Light Freq: 50HZ (stock)
    Screen Set: 1 MIN
    Auto Off: 5MIN (unit will shut down 5min after power cut?)
    mine is the same except the motion detect, i think that's for when it does not have power it'll motion detect record, it would be recording all night in that case for me because i park on the street.

    I just got to work, i have 6 videos from my drive to work... i guess the video time is the clip size... seems to only record for 5 seconds after power off regardless of setting.

    Yea that might not be a bad thing for me. Still trying to get this figured out exactly. I thought my Chinglish was up to date, but apparently I've lost some of my interpretive skills looking at this manual.

    Is yours wired to your car's accessory circuit, or always on? In the former case, I'd assume it would motion detect record with the battery?

    Hmm...might need to see some more video, but this one looks almost as good as the BlackVue without the price.

    i have it on my accessory cig lighter for now, the cam says it has a 4 hour battery, so i would assume it'd use that for motion detect, like i said, i don't use the motion detect so i don't know if that's actually how it works.

    i haven't gone night yet, but i would assume it's too bright in the city for the IR to activate, and even if it did, 8 little led lights isn't gonna get past the hood of your car, the only way you could make it more effective is to put some IR's in your grille or something

    i'll probably be doing some night time stuff tomorrow, i'll post up my results. on Thursday/Friday

    Ordering one of these too. Does anybody know how much a video can be stored on the 16gb or 32gb micro sd? 16gb class 4 card is $20 compared to $50 for the 32gb, just figuring out if it's worth it. And is there any difference between brands? Sandisk 32gb card is $80 where coremicro is $55

    I've got a slightly different model than this one but from the same manufacturer. The videos are pretty large and mine in 1080 with sound its around 105mb/min if i step it down to 720 w/ sound its around 70mb/min.

    I also went with class 10cards as I heard that the slower cards may affect your FPS and when I was in walmart all their class 10 cards where on sale for the same price as the lower ones so I picked up a couple 16gb which was the biggest they had.

    So a 16gb card would hold thirty 5 minute clips? Or 2.5 hours on that 16gb?

    Edit:Bestbuy has 16gb class 10 cards for the same price as futureshop does for class 4. Will have to get one there.

    on HD i was averaging about 100mb per minute (maybe just a little less than that, but it's a safe, easy number to work with)

    according to my math that's 10 minutes per gb, 160 minutes total on a 16gb card, should be more than enough

    Yeah I can't see myself needing more than 2 hours of video. Sorry, but is this run off of a micro sd card or a mini sd?

    Do you have a link? Is it around the same size as this one? Although I'm not sure the 1080p would be THAT much better than the 720p, especially in this price bracket.

    click

    Thats the one I have although I ordered it from a different seller for cheaper. It was about 65$ shipped in the end.

    I bought it over a year ago before they became popular and really I was not expecting much from it but it blew away my expectations.

    It is pretty small (smaller than any radar detector) but the mount it comes with is pretty big and bulky.

    In comparison to the OPs camera I feel mine has a slightly better picture and mine handles low light a bit better. (although it does NOT have IR leds it uses 2 super bright white leds that I've never turned on)

    I went with this one over the OPs just because you can close the screen so its not always shining. As well with the screen closed 90% of people just think its a radar detector.

    In regards to the 1080 v 720. there is not alot of difference and really takes playing it back on a big TV to notice any difference. As well you get less FPS in 1080. The lens plays more of a factor in quality than the resolution ever will.

    the one in the OP can be set to have the screen off, i have mine set this way.

    Just ordered mine. I'm trusting you guys on this!

    I'll probably go with a 16GB card (unless a 32GB one can be had for cheap), since the camera does loop recording on it's own.

    Do I need to go with a Class 10 card, or would a slower one do?

    We should get a group buy going on Class 10 32GB microSD cards. 16GB would be okay I guess, but having the extra capacity would be nice.

    I just got about 1 hour of footage with about 6.5GB. I don't think I'll need a 32GB one. Consider I'm sure 90% of the time it's left there looping. I'll check again when this 16GB quits.
