Any of you guys "running" a dashcam?

Just curious. Does anyone remember the issues with cameras made in China with back door access? These were in cell phones, home security, etc. I believe the ones involved were wireless & wi-fi/Bluetooth capable. I wonder if any of these have the same unauthorized access worked in. I want a dah cam but if it’s made in china I’m staying away.


Good luck finding one that isn't made in China.
 
Next time you're messin around with YouTube, check out Russian dash cam vids. Halarious stuff. Wrecks, of course, but also great road rage ass-kickings, people getting hit with bear spray and good old people smashing cars with tire irons.
 
I drive about 70 miles away. Bought one 2 years ago and forget it's even there. Have never needed to review the footage but cheap insurance policy.



I have this one.

I had one but it didn't like the heat.

Yep... Lost mine in a fire... j/k :pound:

I wonder how many kwh they draw ? :doh:
I don't reckon a rear one will work too well on a vert either. :doh::doh: :)
 
I am, two of them.
Started with this (out of stock)

Upgraded to this (to get GPS logging, and better rear camera) (was on sale for $119, so wait, they go on sale all the time)

Moved old camera into the second car.

When I dated my now wife, I drove 700 miles roundtrip every 2 weeks, sometimes more often.
Had several almost accidents, and glad I had a camera.
I will not drive a car without one.
Routed wire under the headliner, and you cannot tell I am running a camera.

PS edited for typos. Cannot type today.
nice. Hidden is better.
