bro TCL, i bought this on ebay last week. should be arriving
soon. check with you...the lcd screen must be down all the time? if
flip back up, is the recording still in progress? where did you
positioned it? (looks like just above the IU). thanks in
advance.
KTCK , with the flap down or up , the thing will still record .
Be sure to check if the recording timer moves.
Basically from what i feel , this camera is at best just for
minimal protection as it is not wide angled , the view that is
recorded is very limited. It can prove certain cases like people
whacking onto your side when you are in lane , People beating red
lights and causing a junction collision , cyclist coming into your
path , pedestrians dashing out suddenly. Anything more , the camera
is a bit lacking.
I placed it in the centre just below the rear view mirror . be
sure not to stick the suction cup on your solar film visor at the
top.
And also do not buy a micro sd card with adapter coz of contact
point issues , do get the 4 GB or 8 Gb sandisk SDHC card. Mustafa
sells the 4 gb for 12.90 and the 8 gb for 22.90
The camera allows you to set recording in clips of 2 mins , 5
mins and 15 mins. I set at 5 mins .
A 2 min file is abt 83 MB whereas a 5 min one is abt 206 mb.
