Start your journey with premium protection using the BlackVue Elite 8 1CH. Powered by the cutting-edge Sony STARVIS 2 technology, this front-only dash cam records stunning 2K QHD video, ensuring every detail of the road ahead is captured by the sensor.
With its Power Saving Mode, optional BlackVue Cloud connectivity, and the ability to upgrade with a rear camera later, it is the perfect scalable solution for drivers who want flexibility.
Unlike many 1-channel systems that limit you to front-only recording forever, the BlackVue Elite 8 is future-proof. It features a port specifically for a rear camera, allowing you to purchase and add a rear unit separately down the line.
This upgradeability makes it perfect for budget-conscious drivers who want to start with a high-quality dashcam now and expand to full front and rear protection later. By adding the second unit, you can unlock Dual HDR capabilities for both front and rear cameras.
Keep your vehicle safe while it is parked without draining your battery. The BlackVue features an advanced Power Saving Mode that consumes less than 1mA in standby. The dash cam sleeps until the sensor detects an impact, then wakes up instantly to record the event.
This efficiency allows for weeks of Parking Mode surveillance on a healthy car battery. For even longer duration or high-traffic areas where you want to use Motion Detection, we recommend pairing your BlackVue Elite with a BlackboxMyCar PowerCell 8 Battery.
Stay connected to your vehicle from anywhere. The Elite 8 is compatible with the optional LTE Connectivity Module. Once connected, you can enjoy Remote Live View, receive instant push notifications of impacts, and back up critical videos to the BlackVue Cloud.
Even without the LTE module, the built-in Wi-Fi connects seamlessly to your phone. Use the app to preview footage, adjust settings, and download videos on the spot, making it easy to share evidence from your dashcam with police or insurance companies.
Every BlackVue Elite 8 1CH comes with an extended 2-year Manufacturer Warranty, giving you double the coverage and twice the peace of mind. It’s our commitment to reliability, so you can drive knowing your investment is protected, mile after mile.
High-quality 2K video requires space, and the BlackVue Elite 8 delivers. It supports microSD cards up to 1TB, allowing you to store weeks of driving history before older files are overwritten.
The system uses efficient H.264 compression and Loop Recording to manage storage automatically. Whether you are a daily commuter or a long-haul driver, the BlackVue ensures you have ample room for your journey.

Can I add a rear camera to this later?
Yes! The BlackVue Elite 8 1CH has a dedicated port for a rear camera. You can purchase the rear kit separately at any time to upgrade your system to a 2-channel setup for full front and rear coverage.
Does this come with a cigarette lighter power cable?
No, the BlackVue comes with a Hardwiring Power Cable in the box. This is designed to be connected directly to your vehicle's fuse box to enable Parking Mode. If you prefer a simple plug-and-play setup, you can purchase a 12V cigarette power cable separately.
What is the advantage of 2K over 1080p?
2K QHD resolution contains nearly two times as many pixels as standard 1080p Full HD. This results in sharper images, making it much easier to read license plates and see small details like street signs, which is a significant advantage over lower resolution dashcams.
Do I need the LTE module?
The LTE module is optional. You only need it if you want to access Cloud features remotely. If you only want to view footage when you are inside the car, the built-in Wi-Fi on the BlackVue Elite is all you need.
Will this drain my battery in Parking Mode?
The Elite 8 is highly efficient. Its Power Saving Mode consumes less than 1mA, which is negligible. Additionally, the hardwiring kit has a built-in voltage cutoff that will automatically shut the dash cam down if your car battery gets too low.
Does it have a screen?
No. The BlackVue Elite 8 uses a stealthy, screenless design that tucks neatly behind your rearview mirror. This prevents it from obstructing your view. You view everything through the app on your phone, a standard feature for premium Blackvue units.
