got 400 for front & 350 for back w pwr magic since ytd. initial recording ok; bv software installed on pc ok, except 350 one play on bv s/w all black screen but can play w gom player; no issues w settin up for both sets.
backside itchy go format 350 sd card, then dvr kept reportin "pls chk ur sd card" (actually referred to manual later was due to nvr upgrade firmware (NOTE: nvr insert BLANK sd card into bv dvr); now ok liao.
this evening 400 "hang", indicated by continuous purplish light, even after unplugged. waited for lights off b4 remove sd card to do format using sd formatter 3.1 (ALWAYS use pittasoft recommended sd card formatter) & firmware upgrade.
now everythin back to norm, fingers crossed.
overall stylish, value for money (due to GB good offer by bro Xavier) & well-build product, only let down by not so stable firmware. also 400 feels between warm & hot, 350 slight warm; both body r plastics.
update 2 on 301111: everythin still normal, except intermittent gps --> sometimes start engine to drive car no gps light, sometime there's gps light.
update 3 on 011211: hang in morning (continual purple light); loaded 301111 version dr400g-hd sw; back to normal for time being.
update 4 on 081211: GPS light not on for 2 days when driving wif mix of tunnel & surface roads, each for about 10 mins duration (previously GPS took 2 mins to light up (activate))
update 5 on 261211: got a replacement set due to intermittent gps (NOTE: shipping cost is SGD30 as claimed by Xavier; only ship back main set & not whole box; so try whatever u can 1st e.g. reformat & retry before confirm to ship back)
Update 6 on 100112: gps not working for a couple of days
Update 7 on 080212: all is well now, but gps may not on due to v-cool n location?
Tks Xavier for his patience n assistance during above period.
Update 8 on 100212: during very hot afternoon, HD set got noisy, purplish & streaking recording, ended with a hang on 1st occasion & ended with "pls check SD card" repeated prompt this afternoon; also noted GPS has stopped working altogether.
Update 9 on 150212: confirmed HD set gets noisy, purplish & streaking recording when car parked in open during clear mid-day. Re-format with full overwrite & swapped to rear windscreen & mount upside down - recording & GPS came on despite v-cool film installed on windscreen (may not be solar film issue; GPS sensor mounted at bottom internal?). Will leave it this way for monitoring 1st.
Update 10 on 170212: swapped HD set to front, record & GPS light still on; past few days no continuous parked under hot sun for > 2hrs due to weather & schedule.
Update 11 on 200212: GPS almost down again after re-format & reload s/w. these few days got to park under morning sun direct, today parked for < 1hr, got purplish, noisy, streaky image; drove off at mid-day - same image with added blackout complete & whiteout complete at last few videos + day & month jumped randomly to OCTOBER 2012??? =>

anyone got lobang for Car mobile camera, night and day recording?
Bro,
y dont u just send back yr set?
Yeah bro, why not just send to Shochong and let him take care of the rest for you.
hi,
anyone got lobang for Car mobile camera, night and day recording?
Personally, Shochong is the best lobang on MCF with the BV400HD.
Not selling medicated plaster for him, he's there when you have issues
and will solve it on the spot. Great fellow to deal with.
got a good deal hand itchy liao wanna get some review before hooting...
Edited by Kakabobo, 22 February 2012 - 01:15 PM.
I considered that too. Can charge using USB and mount upside down (there's a flip function in the software. Only thing is no display. Ended up buying a Vico DS-1 from Taiwan. HD quality, decent functions and screen. No heat problem to worry about coz it doesn't have a built-in battery.anyone using goPro HD HERO2 as car cam ?

if the product cannot take the heat, no amount of good service can solve it right?
If product stated max 65 degree & cant take the heat, then dont use it when u are parking under the extreme heat.
If you need to constantly park under hot sun for long hours & still want surveillance, then dont buy blackvue.
Simple lol.
Purplish video defective rates is around 8% for my customers.
92% are enjoying without complains.
The 8% are thankful for the after sales warranty.
To buy or not to buy, its up to the ppl.

Only microSD card problem. 
Will let u know by this Sat for the microSD card. Still waiting for the other vendor.................

That is not exactly true, the recommended working temperature IS clearly stated.
If you work in a furnace, and the tolerable working temperature is stated to only 200C
but your furnace even at 10mtrs is 3000C, you expect it to still function or melt?
$1 is not like bullock cart wheel so big. I have no qualms about the camera, even packed under the sun,
I just turn it off, and yesterday morning, captured one dangerous driving and road harassment, of which I reported to
Traffic Police, so clear the number plate can be seen in clear detail. Yet to find a camera that can match this.
Like I said, personally, I'm very pleased with the product and his service to resolve any issues and questions
I have about the camera. Good service is important, as you can see, some of the brothers here got crap from other
shops, problems, keep going back and forth, and even some gave them the "couldn't be bothered, I made your money already" attitude.
if the product cannot take the heat, no amount of good service can solve it right?
Try sitting in the car, aircon off, windows up, under the hot sun, and you see if you can tahan or not also.
if the product cannot take the heat, no amount of good service can solve it right?
I beg to differ, if it's really a heat issue, this thread here will be on fire with complains with all the buyers from Shochong.
Even with maybe higher break down rates, Shochong stood by his products and gives good support to all his customers without fail.
That i feel is the most commendable rather than just selling and let us customers to go figure out by themselves.
like wat another bro has commented fr another related thread, heat dissipation has become a technical challenge in such a tiny body w hi-res & GPS tech built-in.
if not for the hi-res & compact / no mess installation compared to other makes & models, i would probably have given it a miss.
Edited by Fuelsaver, 23 February 2012 - 09:40 AM.
to be fair, actually dr350 has been working fine until now.
like wat another bro has commented fr another related thread, heat dissipation has become a technical challenge in such a tiny body w hi-res & GPS tech built-in.
DR400 uses GPS to set the time stamp on the video. So it will be nice to see in the next update if they can find a way to only turn on GPS for the first 1minute to calibrate the time. After that the we can set the unit to switch off GPS either when driving or parking

well in the 1st place this is a car camera, it was made to be kept inside a car even on a hot day
even before anything the manufacturers must have taken into consideration the potential heat issues before designing the product right?
personally i'm interested to buy a cam but i'm holding off until either a newer model is released to fix these issues or another camera with a similar video quality is released
i don't know how much you guys are paying for your cameras locally because i can never find a pricelist with a price but on ebay its going for $280 including shipping, but even at 280 its expensive considering the very high probability of failure
Ya so far mine also np, ok bro wan to sell finish liao the card let me know soonSo far my BV no problem with blur or purple video.
Y not go to www.pittasoft.co.kr & leave your comments there, i think it will be more helpfulwell in the 1st place this is a car camera, it was made to be kept inside a car even on a hot day

I did a search on Ebay today at 10.30am, the cheapest deal i can find is S$ 312.72 WITHOUT power magic from korea, so i dont know where u find your ebay deal at $280.
U can try buying from ebay & try their after sales services.
China food so cheap, but i dont fly there to eat when i m hungry right?
No offence just my 2 cents worth. ;)

Well, again, if you read the working temperatures, you'd know what to expect as well. If even for that kind of price on ebay you deem it expensive, I suggest the most cheapest option, blink your eye, it captures a MENTAL picture. Download I donno, no USB port so far.
You pay for what you buy. Ya so far mine also np, ok bro wan to sell finish liao the card let me know soon
Don't forget to send to me hor. And the new DVR, err...lemme know. My other car KIV. If better then BV400, which I doubt it will be,
I will consider.

How is this Blackvue 400 compared to DSX1080?
Blackvue still has the best night & day video but dsx1080 does not run as hot.Hi Sho Chong,
How is this Blackvue 400 compared to DSX1080?
Anyone use this car recorder, DVR HD-25 before? Any comments or feedback is greatly appreciated!
Thanks
but as a backup precaution, i have a total of 3 cams running whenever i am on the road, just in case anyone fails.
as for those who feel that they can wait for the ultimate camera ... well, my colleague just bought a common one being sold on the internet for under $50 ....
throughout the past few years, i have always suggested to him to get one but he said no need ... until last month when he had to fork out $1600 for his car repairs when a truck carrying stones dropped one big stone beside him when he was driving and his car ran over the stone and stalled and his undercarriage was badly damaged.
as he car stalled, he cud not give chase to the truck and had no details of the truck at all and had to pay everything by himself.
moral of this story, procrastination will only bring regret and a painful lesson when something happens.
i am all for BV but like i mentioned above, i have extra 2 cams working at the same time as backup. (btw, i was involved in an accident 3 years ago ... and my cam was not working at that moment and the case ended up 50/50 but my ins premium went from $600 to $1400 and then $1100 and then this year $800 = $1500 premium increase !!
so it does not matter if you get the best ... but at least get something average for a peace of mind.

You can get it from here cheaper, also can read the reviews here by other users : http://www.dealextre...i-2-5-lcd-54137
If you getting it from the website u posted, I suggest u get the DOD-tech V660 instead. Almost similar pricing but better night video clarity.

i got my cousin to buy the BV400 for me when he was working in korea a few months back ... saved a few tens of dollars ... but as usual, got to forgo the warranty.
maybe you can get in touch with the manufacturer and check if any of their distributors are within your itinerary and you can go there when you get to korea.
btw, you going when ??

Which part of Taiwan???
If in Taipei, go to Guan Hwa Electronics Mall. It is same same as sim lim square. Lots of shops there sell car cam. Also like sim lim, remember to compare prices if not u will look like a carrot head.
There's a smaller mall called Nova opp Taipei train station. Bought my carcam there. Better to buy from a shop that is registered with the tax authority and that can do the GST refund paperwork for you (refund is claimable at airport). My refund more than paid for my SD card capacity upgrade :)Which part of Taiwan???

Ok, send me ur address again, I come and collect this evening, ard 8-9pm.
Was in MY last weekend and parked whole day under the sun. When I reviewed the videos BV DR400G took compared to when it was new............I think my unit's lens also gonna up lorry. Will monitor it over the week.
When it was new :
Video taken on Sat while making my way back to SG :
my dvr also kana something like that. when new, clear 720p video.
after about a couple of months, the recording res is still 720p, but the focus is off. or rather its' focusing point is from a couple of cm to maybe a couple of feet away instead of from a feet to infinity.
it's the V660.
Tested it, dont run hot , has ventilation holes. love the part where it has inbuilt "power magic" function
Bro. how does the inbuilt PM fit with my setup of PM2? connect direct into fuze box or?
Just tap the finevu direct to fusebox.Bro. how does the inbuilt PM fit with my setup of PM2? connect direct into fuze box or?
Its due to Singapore extreme hot weather during this period. Most of the car dvr will "die" if using under this prolong heat.my dvr also kana something like that. when new, clear 720p video.

Did some modding on the DR400 to address the overheating issue. Hopefully this will extend the product life span
I am not sure if just the heat sink only helps or harm the unit even more especially when the car is in the sun. Wouldnt the heat sink gets heated up too under the sun???
I think you will need to add a fan to cool the heat sink too.
Need to go back to thermal-dynamics.
Edited by Adrianli, 02 March 2012 - 07:53 AM.
Will monitor and let you know if it's just me being forgetful.
U mean dr400 turned off? Means power magic cut off the power supply because of low voltage ;)
Could be me forgetting to turn on when I got into the car to go home, because with power magic off, key go in, it
will start up as well, so got home, take some time before it switches off, I see how tomorrow.
I damn forgetfultoo much work to think about lah.

ShoChong, u may be wrong on the heat issue. This unit comes with vent for heat dissipation but the unit itself still heats up pretty much same as Blackvue DR400G-HD. I measured the various parts of the unit and surprised that one side peaked at 56 degrees C, almost same temp as the Blackvue DR400G-HD.
This unit does not come with GPS so not sure where the heat is coming from. Below pic shows the different temp measured on the unit.
Another thing, the firmware is in Korean........so settings are pretty much default except for night brightness which I selected to medium as advised by you. Shock sensor is pretty sensitive, not sure left or right to set it less sensitive. May need a korean babe help to do translation.
Full review coming up............later in the week.

Hi bro, under overnight parking mode its does not feel as hot as dr400 based on my test.:)I will post my review of the Finevu CR-300HD here. Had it fixed up over the weekend. Having it running for two days continuously.

56 degree is based on one small piece but dr400 is hot throughout.
I have sent u the English manual so it's pretty easy to tally with the actual software;)
Anyway the GUI can be changed to English once the English firmware is released. This is a Pre launch for the finevu latest model. :)

Will show u the temp measurement when u are back. I have both of them (DR400G and CR300HD) running in my car. Took temp reading of both while they are recording. Car was parked in sheltered parking lot the whole night.
Yup, received the english manual but the GUI is in Korean so for the moment dont dare to change the default settings. For the shock sensor, do u know the left side or right side is less sensitive?
But I like the motion sensor, only near(ard 5m) then activate and record. Can adjust the sensitivity but I cant read korean so do not know left or right is less/more sensitive.
Default looks ok to me now.
Errrrr............the F900HD should be F900LHD as shown in the picture.

There are a few fake F900LHD in DX, the original one should be this :
http://www.dealextre...d-2-5-lcd-47859
I like the cylindrical shape design of this car camera, it looks compact and can be easily hidden from view when mounted in front of the rearview mirror. The black exterior colour also helps in its camouflage. The LED control buttons are nicely placed facing the rear so that it will not attract any attention while in operation. There is no option to turn off the LED though. The control buttons allow the user to use the unit as a video camera or photo camera. U can also turn off the mic or tell the unit to go into parking mode. It operates with 12V plug or 5V(via mini-USB). Size wise, look at the photo compared with two other higher end car cameras, Blackvue DR400G-HD and DOD-Tech GSE580.
It comes build with shock sensor and motion sensor. Shock sensor operates in normal and parking mode. Motion sensor only operates in parking mode. The sensitivity of these sensors can be adjusted thru the settings menu when plugged into a PC. By default, Parking mode is activate within 10mins of no activity in front of the camera. But you must have constant power supply to be able to activate the parking mode. If its power adapter is simply plugged into the cig lighter, it will auto turn on or off when you start ur car. When turning off, the camera would record an additional 4mins thru its internal battery before shutting down.
Video quality is good, only two resolution options, either HD(720p) or Full HD(1080p). When set to Full HD, able to read off number plates from three car length away in day time, normal for such higher end car cameras. However, I find that there is a slight disparity of video sharpness when compared to Blackvue DR400G-HD. Night video is also comparable to the Blackvue DR400G-HD, brightness can be adjusted from the settings menu. Coverage of video was good, its wide angle lens able cover from left A pillar to right A pillar of my car bonnet. Great for capturing those sudden swerve into my lane heros.
The video recording is set at 3mins interval w/o any time lapsed between video files. Event video(activated by shock or motion sensor) are set at 40secs interval, 10secs before the ?Event? and 30secs after. No option to change the video recording duration.
The Finevu CR-300HD comes with build-in battery monitoring function and option of add-on anti-reflection lens filter. There is no need to install additional battery monitoring devices like power magic. The unit will detect the voltage supply and shutdowns down the camera if voltage is low. Thus preventing your car battery being drained. So far I saw from my recorded footage, camera auto shutdown when voltage reaches below 11V. However there is no option to adjust this cutoff value.
Another smart feature is the unit will auto flip the video right side up whether u mount it on the windscreen or on the dashboard.
Minimum microSD card requirement was Class6. It comes with a 16Gig microSD card. I am using my Sandisk Ultra 32Gig Class6 microSD card and so far so good, no hang.
After two days of continuous running of the unit, I took the temperature at various parts of the car camera using a infra-red thermometer. Overall, the whole unit operates at ard high 40 degrees C and one side peaking at 56 degrees C. It does run slightly cooler than Blackvue DR400G-HD but still warmer than my DOD-Tech GSE580. Have to monitor if there will be long term effects like the Blackvue DR400G-HD.
Somethings I do not like :
- You cannot change any settings thru the control keypads. U have to hook up the unit to ur PC to do the settings. Even if you take out the microSD card and plug into a card reader, u also cannot access the settings menu. Only connecting the physical unit thru USB to ur PC will do.
- There is no build-in software to view the video, shock sensor reading or gps like Blackvue or DRS110PRO. The video is stored in preset folders and you open them up to access them. They are recorded in universal recognized format, AVI. Each three min file size is about 221mb. Each 40sec event file size is about 49mb. Finevu website has the video player, you can download it from there.
- The 3.5mm video output plug(output both video and audio) does not fit my Nexbase portable DVD player input. They should provide normal RCA connector output cable instead. Have to do guess work while mounting the unit.
- Korean language firmware at the moment. Hope for English firmware soon.
- Ya, it does not come with LCD screen or GPS thou its higher price.
Pros :
1) Build-in auto low batt shutdown function
2) Clarity in the night
3) Audio muting
4) Battery voltage display
5) No time lapsed between video files
6) Relatively small in size
7) Double tape mounting
Cons :
1) Lack of video quality adjustments
2) Lack of recording duration adjustments
3) Lack of LCD screen
4) Lack of GPS
5) A bit pricy
6) No option to turn off date n time stamping
7) Need to connect car cam to PC to adjust settings
The price to me is the "put-off" factor.
Hi bro, Thanks for the detailed review!Day video sample of Finevu CR-300HD :
Night video sample of Finevu CR-300HD :
Pardon the tilted angle, I was putting in the microSD card and shifted the camera angle and was not aware. Thatz why I prefer a LCD screen.
Forgot to tell u that there is a viewer software like blackvue, u have to download from their official site :)

For a inbuilt power magic function, also from an more established company in Korea than pittasoft, I think the price is very reasonable for this high end model. :)A good review. thnaks.

Bro i just checked with the manufacturer today , even that model pasted is a COPY .
DOD does not supply any F900LHD to dealextreme currently .
So when a purchase is made , they will send you a COPY model .
if you noticed the authentic products carry the BRAND name , but for this F900LHD no brand name was specified , on top of that , F900LHD can never be cheaper then F880LHD .
There is no such thing as a OEM model for DOD , only fakes .
Please be careful with your purchases and don't be victims of copyright products .
If you need any help with Genuine products , dont hesitate to let us know , we will gladly help you on that .
cheers
the authorised distributor in singapore for blackvue recommends us to put full HD at 15fps to reduce heat, even in parking mode. they claimed that this reduce some amount of heat and recording image remains clear.... anyone try? i see the image at 15fps is acceptable but I did not have any tool to measure temp......
i think its nonsense. a good camera should be able to record at a good quality at high FPS.

GoPro does not have the features required of a car camera. It is a good camera thou.
You can take a bus to cross the causeway. Then hop on a cab to Johor Pasir Gudang Race Circuit. Remember to take down the cab mobile number, you can call him to fetch you when you are done at the circuit.
Taxis can be boarded at the new Johor CIQ. For booking, call +607 3322855
You dont need a car to go there.
