I was early adopter of dashcam. Owned a few 1080P dashcam and moved on to A119 and now I have A129 Pro.

Here are a few things I would want if I were on the market.

1. In most accidents, if someone hit you from behind, it's their fault. so At least one channel is required. ALL parking mode dashcams require hard wiring. you would need to wire your car at fuse box. and connect the ground cable to body, one power wire to ACC ( accessory. only power on while the car is on) another cable to constant power. Wiring this is not a rocket science, but the wire tap has + side and - side. so it can be confusing. If you want the parking mode and going to hardwire a dashcam, I would just get 2 ch dashcam for all your trouble.

2. Night mode sensor performance varies. Sony sensors are apparently the best. Even with my 4k dashcam, the license place is hard to read. I think what is important is you can record the general shape. Did the car cut your lane with no blinker? this the car in front of you back in to your car? did they ran the red light? which can be done with any dashcam ( any cam is better than no cam). but I would want at least 2k front. 4k is overkill.

3. Super important. Dashcam... you would need to insert a microSD Card. and the data is constantly overide and the card is being used. the old data will be wipped and over written with new data. The SD card will eventually fail and stop recording. if you don't know sd card failed, you might get accident 4 months later ... and you will be mad. MY A119 the old model has a chime sensor. when Sandisk failed, ( after 5 year use ) it started beeping every 3 seconds. so I ordered new sd card ( now I only use Samsung SD CARD. high endurance model) and I'm back in business.

4. Stupid point but important.
I had dashcam with suction mount and it eventually fall while driving in hot day. This A119 use 3M red stuff sticky tape. it's not going anywhere. my a119s never failed me or fall on me. I would only get Sticky tape mount. I do not trust suction cup mount.

5. Built in screen. some dashcam does not have built in screen, my friend's BlackVue models are expensive... but I want to check once in a while. I like models like Viofo that lets me know it's recording.


I can't comment on Garmin, but I have been happy with my Viofo.

If you just want to cover the basics
get his A119 with GPS and Speed Sensor. Get a Samsung High Endurance MicroSD card use the cigarette lighter socket. wiring is long enough to route around the trims. and give you clean install. the dashcam unit is only a size of cigarette box.

IF you want to do the hardwire install for parking mode'
Get something like Viofo A129 pro 2k front and 1080p back. I have A129 4k front and 1080p back.

Get a hardwiring kit. Youtube has tons of videos on how to hardwire dashcams properly.
hard wirekit is typically less than $20. figuring out which fuse to tap is hard.. and find the polarity of the fuse socket is the hard part... but once you understand it should not take more than 1 hour.

the rear camera need to be wired to the front of the car ( connect to the dashcam ) make sure the wire is not pressured by any trims or safety points like seat belt. there are wires in the cable and you do not want to creat a short or cross wiring by pressure.

This is its normal sale price. I've been watching this for months and it fluctuates from a lightning deal to a 33% off deal to a coupon deal to normal price. If you wait about a month it'll be back at this price again just in a different way.

I'm waiting for it to hit lower and patiently waiting past all these "sale prices"
For what it's worth, I have had the Viofo A119 V1 ever since late 2016/early 2017. So it has been 6 to 7 years and have not had any issues whatsoever. I live in Colorado, so it has gone through extreme heat, cold, etc. No issues. My family has had the V3 for about over a year now and they too have zero issues. The picture quality is very good and can read license plates from a good distance away.

So anyone who is skeptical about this brand need not worry about reliability, etc.

How about using the OBD port to power (and also to provide the "surveillance" mode) the dashcam?

Something like this?

Would you share the video settings?
I have mine on 1440p 30fps with hdr. It looks decent but I feel could be better.

Does this have a port on it that supports the rear camera attachment?

No. This is single camera only.

I purchased mine from B&H last year and it came with the low power cutoff and lens filter. The camera is great but the g-sensor is too sensitive and it would save and lock videos when it hits a small bump in the road. In addition, I set the the low power cutoff to 12.4v but it consistently goes well below that to 12.1v and under which is very harmful for the battery. I just manually unplug it at the camera now when I park at home.

Those work on a very limited -- often older -- vehicles.

I use a similar one (but with a toggle switch) with my 2005 Mercury Grand Marquis, but would never use it in a modern vehicle with the multitude of computers and electronics in them.

OBD ports are not intended for such use, anyway.

Looking at this and the A229 model as well. I hate that I need to spend money on something like this. It's like insurance, you pay a lot for it but if nothing happens, it's almost like paying for nothing. However when something DOES happen, you're really glad you have it.

I guess this is cheaper than getting a Tesla.
