    My new dash cam won't acknowledge any sd cards when inserted! Could I be doing something wrong or do I have a defective Dash cam? Any ideas? Thanks in advance

    If 32Gb card, you can format it as FAT32 by your Windows computer; If 64Gb or above, you can format it by Guiformat tool by your Windows computer!

    Hi. With dash cams now being a standard accessory in cars and trucks.

     

    We have a high failure rate. Not just from cheap cameras but also $200-$300 cameras

     

    We always install class 10 SD cards and not ones supplied so we know we don't have recording problems.

     

    We have 4 of the Vicovation marcus 5 http://www.vicovation.com

    Not cheap at $250. Support was good for two systems but then no reply to emails. With the amount of firmware updates out should of been a warning there was a problem. Also other problems with the Marcus 5.

    Does not like heat at all .... And both cameras run hot anyway so summer use they are for ever shutting down.

    We have also had to replace power supplies on 2 out of the 4 ... Not good enough to run both the cameras.

    The picture quality is one of the best out of all we have used and the added benifit of rear camera also good images

    But system is no good with reboot problems system life 13 months

     

    Nextbase is another brand we have 2 of https://www.nextbase.co.uk

    Good little small camera but again heat problems ( they just shut down till cool) this has only happened to 1 of the cameras. Customer puts it away when car is parked up. Which prevents using the shock sensor function

     

     

    It would be interesting to hear what others use and to be honest with how they stand up to everyday use.

    Personally, am not using but from what I know I have associates that bought this Anytek Dashcam and they has been using with no issue since he bought during the 2015 CPSE in Shenzhen. BTW, Malaysia weather is hot 7/24 365 days

    Note: I will check if it's still working though, since no incidence they might not have try playback.

    If hot weather area,it is better to find one capacitor based dashcam,such as A119/Mini 0906/B1W
