Product FAQ:

Q: Can I have it record all night while my car is parked and check it in the morning?

A: The dash cam only records when the car's engine is started. The built-in battery capacity of the driving recorder is not large, so if you need to keep recording while parking, it is recommended that you buy a hard-wired kit with a mini USB interface.

Q: Will the recorded on memory card playback on any device?

A: Yes, you can access all media on the card by using a USB mini SD card reader.

Q: When you start your car does dash cam start up alone?

A: No, after starting, you always have to select the mode before it starts recording. It is directly connected to the car USB.

Q: What size adapter do I need so I can have it record more than 30 seconds in park mode?

A: You'll need to buy a hardwired kit so you can charge the dash cam while you're parked.

Q: If you get into an accident, how do you lock the video so it doesn't loop over?

A: There is a pause button on one side of the camera that will protect the file. It will show a small lock icon on the left-hand side of the viewable screen. Never just turn off the camera. If in an accident, let the camera record for at least another minute or two to ensure proper writing onto your SD card.

Q: The camera will record for about 2 minutes before shutting off...it's also fully charged.

A: The camera screen shuts off but the unit still records as long as power is supplied. It will not detect bumps when you are parked unless you hardwire power. On most cars, the power to the cigarette lighter plug-in goes off when the car is shut down.

Q: Is there a better way to mount this? It literally falls out on every left turn.

A: Please tear off the protective film of the suction cup before installation. Please clean the windshield before installation. Check whether the suction cup has been installed in the right way. The suction cup installation of this cam is not simply adsorption. It needs to stall through the black handle on the suction cup. When you install the suction cup carefully, it is not easy to fall off. If you really don't like using suction cups, we can give you a 3M adhesive base.

Q: What brand 128GB works? Description says some brands.

A: We recommend using well-known SD cards like Sony and Samsung.

Q: Why will it not recognize my SD card? I tried two different cards, made sure the second one was a class 10.

A: The SD card must be formatted by the dash cam in order to work correctly. The instructions that come with the camera instruct on how to do this.

Q: I got the camera today. Plugged into the car. The camera keeps starting up and shutting down. Is it a bad one?

A: It sounds like it could be a faulty unit. Please check if the plug is loose in the socket.

Overall, this dash cam offers great value for money, with comprehensive features including loop recording, G-sensor, night vision, and parking monitoring. It comes with two mounting options and a large 3-inch LCD screen for easy monitoring and replaying of key moments.
