    Really want to buy this but have heard the Parking mode is broken/unreliable?

    Having 2 hit and runs on my car and having to pay the excess twice, I want a reliable parking mode.

    • wiipantz on 10/02/2021 - 14:05

      I have the 4k version of this, do you have any sources on the parking mode not working? I'm wanting to try that out soon

      • CoreNex on 10/02/2021 - 14:45
        +1

        I have the 2k version and I found it depends on the parking mode that it has been set to. I had issues with the motion sensor parking mode as it either froze the camera when it switches from parking to driving or it doesn't write to the SD when in driving mode after coming out of parking.

        I switch it to time lapse (5 FPS) and it hasn't had an issue since. My first thought is that when the motion sensor isn't activated, the cam doesn't record so when it switches over to driving mode, it doesn't start recording correctly. In time lapse, it never stops recording so it hasn't had an issue.

          So your'e driving and recording as a time lapse? Is that not annoying?

            @wiipantz: I believe from the review I watched a while ago, it only goes to fps when parked.

            • CoreNex on 10/02/2021 - 16:14
              +1

              @witheredcouch: Correct, time lapse is only for the parking mode. Mine is running at 1440p 60fps at the front and 1080p 30fps at the back while in driving mode. The switch between time lapse parking mode to full fps driving mode doesn't seem to have any issues.

              • wiipantz on 10/02/2021 - 16:16

                @CoreNex: Awesome, did you hardwire it yourself or get it done? Sorry to hijack but am curious if there is any good resources on hardwiring for parking mode.

                • CoreNex on 10/02/2021 - 16:22

                  @wiipantz: Hardwired with the Viofo kit by myself. Thankfully there's a community for my car so I was able to get some assistance from the forums regarding wiring paths and fuse locations.

                  Some helpful tips which is applicable for all car models:
                  - Make sure you buy Fuse taps that fit your car, the Viofo kit doesn't come with the taps.
                  - Most, if not all, trims can come off. The Viofo kit comes with a small plastic trim pryer which helps remove them from the pillars.
                  - When wiring the kit through the trim, locate the airbags in your car (typically in the pillars) and either avoid them or run the wires behind the bags. You don't want the cabling to get in the way of an air bag going off.
                  - If you don't have one, get a Circuit tester from places like Bunngins/eBay/Supercheapauto. You'll need one to identify which side of the fuse is live and which side isn't. It'll also be used to locate a fuse which is always on (required for parking mode) and one which is off when the car is off (used to switch into Driving mode).

                    @CoreNex: Cheers mate good tips, I installed the front and rear in my own car ok enough more after a guide on the hardwire side whcih isn't so easy to find funnily enough.

                  • R.R.P on 10/02/2021 - 16:58

                    @CoreNex: Any info regarding the dashcam hardmount option running down the car battery? I've read stories where hard mounting can reduce the battery so much it won't start the car.

                    • CoreNex on 10/02/2021 - 17:29

                      @R.R.P: There's talk of hardwiring kits causing batteries to go flat. The Viofo kit has a slider which allows you to set the usage limiter so it won't drain the battery past a certain amount. Ideally, it'll continue to stay on until it detects the battery getting to a certain level, once there it'll shut off the cam so there's enough/plenty of juice for the car to start and charge the battery.

                      Some kits are automatic in terms of the limiter while others are a physical slider, you'll have to find one that works with your cam. From what I'm aware, the blackvue ones are pretty good with great app support but are a bit complicated to DIY (the kit is also pretty expensive). Viofo is self install friendly and has solid hardware but support is lacking.

                      • R.R.P on 10/02/2021 - 19:22

                        @CoreNex: Thanks mate, I own the 4k Viofo and have the hardwire kit but was hesitant on doing the install

    Does anyone know the best place to get the circular polariser filter and hardware kit (for power)?

    • shalala on 10/02/2021 - 14:30

      Same website for the hardwire kit? You may also need an additional 1 to 2A fuse the same fuse type as yours if not supplied by the hardwire kit.

      I don't have the polariser filter, thinking if may darken the video footage at night.

      • dan2k on 10/02/2021 - 14:41

        actually it looks like aliexpress is the cheapest for the hardwire and CPL. (to answer my own question)
        I intend to try it for a while before hardwiring anyway.

        A polariser usually darkens about 2 f stops, and a digital camera should adjust at the expense of image quality.
        I've just found a comparison here between with and without CPL (jump to about 1:50 to see side by side)

    How do you wire up the rear camera?

    • Broden on 10/02/2021 - 14:32
      +6

      Looks like it connects to the main camera so you just run a cable from the rear one through the trim and into the front one

    • Nanokillaz on 10/02/2021 - 15:15

      how clean you want it to look will depend on how you want to route the wire through the car. You'll most likely have to remove trim for a mint look and pass the wire through a grommet if you have a hatchback/wagon.

      Pro tip: avoid the airbags

    • adr8 on 10/02/2021 - 15:01

      Title price is based on paying in USD, if you switch currency from AUD to USD price should be $111.27, then using this converter https://www.mastercard.us/en-us/personal/get-support/convert… the AU price works out to be $144.58.

      • skinnytie on 10/02/2021 - 15:29

        Does the US$111.27 definitely include GST? That’s the price I get on the web but it doesn’t specify the GST component. In the app it does specify GST which brings the total to US$122.40.

        Edit: US$122.40, not US$1122.40

        • adr8 on 10/02/2021 - 15:36

          US$111.27 is the total price, no additional amount gets added at checkout. So the US$111.27 includes GST.

  • bex000 on 10/02/2021 - 15:44

    From personal experience, rear camera cable too short. It's not a normal USB cable but looks like mini USB. Tried to splice but it has 6pins two pairs shielded and overall shielded. Will be a difficult splice. Make sure you get two fuse taps and consider getting cpl. why it doesn't come as default with cpl boggles the mind

    • SamyKn on 10/02/2021 - 16:02

      I have implemented this in two cars (hardwired) , one SUV and one long Sedan.
      Personally had no issues with the cable length for the rear camera. Not sure how you did run the cable and faced length issue. Did you run it yourself?

    • CheapNGood on 10/02/2021 - 16:20
      +1

      I have found that if the cables are at the bottom of the car, it will be too short. Usually running it at the top of the car there is more than enough excess cable. Issues running on top is obviously keeping the cables out of the way of the side airbags.

      • bex000 on 10/02/2021 - 18:16

        unfortunately I have curtain air bags and could not access top and went through bottom. Short about 1.2m

        • bex000 on 10/02/2021 - 20:37

          Looks like you cab buy a 8m cable on Amazon for 26 delivered

        • CheapNGood on 10/02/2021 - 21:29

          I run mine via the top, either tucking the cable at the base of the clips that hold the curtain air bags or pushing it in further past the grab handles, obviously removing the grab handles gives more slack to the roof liner as well to position the cable.

    • Ezekiel2320 on 10/02/2021 - 20:12

      The cable is like 5m. I have 2-3m of extra cable going to the back

      • kickling on 10/02/2021 - 21:32

        Fuse taps ($5.95) and fuses (few dollars) from jaycar. I changed mine actually from micro to standard mini blade. The micro blade taps don't sit properly.

        Hard wire and cpl were $40ish for both from ebay.

        I use the cpl on the front only because I have dark tint on the boot glass.

      Interesting, I hard wired one for a friend with park mode ie Constant Power and ACC, he hasn't said a thing about his batteries going flat. It is set to 12.4v though for the hard wire kit. What car is it installed in? Installing another one for another friend hence the the interest in park mode not working.
