Dash Cam

[GitErDunn]

Looking into getting a BlackVue dashcam setup. Anyone here use these before? Worth the expensive pricing? Also, I park my truck for a couple weeks at a time, would the add on battery packs etc have it last and record for two weeks at a time without killing the truck battery?

You really have to use that search feature, my friend.

Any recommendations for a dashcam?

Anybody up to speed on the latest and greatest dash cam? I would want the ability for it to record while parked publicly (but not if its sitting inside my garage for days on end). I don't need it to have it's own screen. These days I'm sure you can view the data on another device when needed.

Had a Blackvue in previous truck, no issues. Can't speak to battery. Currently use a Garmin Mini2 and had no issues/concerns even in the desert heat.

I'm currently using a Blackview DR750X-2CH. I start getting a low battery warning after it's been sitting around 14 hours or so, telling me I'm nearing the point that the camera will stop recording. Granted, I park at the house in a way I catch quite a bit of traffic overnight. You won't make it a couple of weeks out of the box.

You can add a battery pack, but it's estimated to give you 24 hours. That's still a far cry from what you're after. Two weeks in parking mode is asking for a lot from the batteries.

Your truck may go into sleep mode after two weeks to conserve battery so you have that to think about too.

I have a Blackvue setup I’m transferring to my Raptor from my previous Jeep. It’s the same 750 2Ch model somebody mentioned above.
