Have the e2. No way the gps is useful it lags so far behind. Also, the included 12v adapter had the wire attached... And it wasn't long enough. Swapped to my own USB cable and USB brick.
Finally, when using known quality microsd cards it would stop recording once full. Customer support pretty much made me buy their brand microsd and it works now ... I don't get it. The microsd I was using was a scandisk and formatted on camera. I've been using the card in my GoPro since issue free.

My personal preference is VIOFO. I have 2 for few years and never failed me. They have a capacitor which I believe is better in high temperature settings.

I have both the Vantrue N2 and the Viofo A119v3. I highly recommend the Viofo. Newer Sony sensor and supercapcitor are the way to go.

Thanks, but with the $100 coupon applied at checkout the newer model is way higher spec (4k front camera for example, capacitor not battery, etc...) and a better value.

Is it big difference between this vs the black one lite version $89 plus $10 off?

I own three Vantrue dashcams that have been running solidly for many years. I've had no issues with any of them.

Which model is the best?

is it challenging to do that? :-)

No its easy. You just have tap in 2 wires from fuse box. One constant 12v and ignition 12v and ground. Easy tap in with fuse tap cable. After that just tuck in wires into headliner and a pillar.

Black E1 showing at $72 👍🏼

Black one is E1 lite with 1080p instead of 2.4k. But that really dont matter much. You can hardly read license plate even on the 4k model. I tried 1080p 2.4k and even 4k. All failed to catch license plate from moving object. My suggestion is to read the license plate out loud when you get in an accident just in case of hit and run. After trying so many dash cams, i care more about reliability than anything else. Texas heat killed like 3 dash cams in our family cars.

Have you tried out this model yet? It doesn't have the Sony starvis sensor the n4 has (x4s has Omni vision) and was wondering what u think so far. Thanks.
