I was in need of this hardware and the staff at BlackboxMyCar helped me out quickly and professionally! Thank you BlackboxMyCar!!! John...
I chose Q800PRO 2K QHD over other brands/models because of its positive feedbacks. After running the dash cam for a few weeks, I am happy with my decision. Customer support was helpful. With their inputs, I also purchased an installation kit, a CPL filter, and a hardwiring kit. I got everything running except hardwiring. The fuse box of my 2019 CRV fuse box isn’t as conveniently located as it should so I am just taking my time. I will update this review after I finish the hardwiring job if anything negative.
Installation was straightforward. Mounting was easy provided you take a little time first to mark down the midpoint of your windshield. Unmount the unit was easier than I thought. It was important because you do need to make adjustments by taking the cam up and down. Currently I power the camera with the provided cigarette power cable. Actually, this is quite sufficient unless you like additional challenges and benefits of parking mode like me.
I added a CPL filter to take advantage of a spending discount. To verify its advertised function, I took footages before and after installation on the same highway and around the same time at night. My observation is there isn’t any obvious difference in term of glare elimination and improved clarity.
The camera unit is made of quality materials. Design was compact and well-thought. Delivery was prompt. I may add a rear unit after getting all current pieces installed.
The product lived up to My expectations..
I wanted all the features (parking) without the hardwire installation and the IROAD OBD-II Power Cable worked great
The vehicle is a 2013 Jeep where the OBD switch is conveniently located so the install was very easy. You are able to toggle the parking feature on or off which is needed since the vehicle is usually sitting in the drive way
Highly recommend it for the price considering how easy it is to install
The new window adhesive is a huge improvement over the gel based adhesive that would melt away in hot sunny weather ! Great job BlackVue
Got the rear camera installed on my Q7 by BBMC, the whole process took about 2 hours. I was concerned that I might have to go somewhere while waiting, but guess what, BBMC provided me with an office with computers and everything so I can work while I wait. It was a pleasant surprise because it is in a office building beside the installation site which was awesome. I was provided with water and left undisturbed. It was a great experience. After about 2 hours, I was told that the installation was completed. I took a look and the installer did a fantastic job hiding the wire and made it so blended in. I'd recommend BBMC to everyone who is interested in getting their camera installed. It is worth paying for getting the cameras installed by the professional. Thanks.
Nice and compact, I use this mount in my classic cars, easy on and off.
This cable certainly simplifies the installation process. The only issue I have had with my 2020 Volvo XC40 is that it sometimes takes a little bit to power on the camera, mostly after sitting for a day or two. Maybe this is normal. Wouldn’t stop me from making the purchase though. They also delivered the cable in good time.
Arrived quickly even though I had to make last minute changes. Blackboxmycar rose to the occasion and everyrthing was handled fast. Customer service was awesome!
product is my second rear camera and works great.
The Power Magic Pro works well, just as stated.
Thanks.
Used this for my blackvue 900 2 channel dashcam. It works fantastic. The staff at blackboxmycar are extremely knowledgeable and intuitive. The customer service was beyond my expectation. Thanks
I YouTube the instruction from various users. The installation was very simple. I was hesitant at first to do it because of the wiring but found it wasn’t hard at all. The most frustrating thing was peeling the 3M tape. I did ask blackbox techs a few questions by email, and they were prompt to respond. I recommend you buy fuse taps and extra fuses that fit your vehicle before you start. These item are found on the blackbox website.
Super professional team!
The best overall experience.
Thanks a lot.
I was in the market to upgrade my black vue and came across this site, not only was the shipping quick but they beat the manufacture website by $100... will definitely buy again
Wonderful product I am very happy with this was a big upgrade from thinkware q800 pro
Had to find a battery to replace my cellink B which suddenly died. Been using this for a bit now and seems to be a lot better. Charges a lot quicker too.
Installation was easy - lots of Youtube videos showing the installation process.
Bluetooth connectivity is helpful, showing battery levels, charge times, and discharge time.
Not so hard to have a clean install, good product, good seller.
I have 2 of these systems, 1 in my Ram & 1 in the Forester.
Camera resolution & view angle are the best.
The app seems sluggish & limited tho.
Over all great feeling if security we can defend ourselves in an accident or attack from a crowd in these crazy times.
I'll never be without these!
Had a few weeks to work with my new Thinkware U1000. Works fantastic and video quality is amazing.
Got it on time FedEx in SoCal. Waited to get up the nerve to first cam install. OK, here I go.. Anxiety in hiding the cable. Most pinched behind the weather strips. Did the set up with a Power Pack in the home the night before with BChobbyist set-up YouTubes. Test drove today: impressed with the vids. Used Polarizing clip-on. Played Mini SD on my Mac. Wondered why the screen shuts off while driving. It's normal I found out. Some JDX classify screen on as a distraction and a vehicle viol. As a Senior, I now feel more protected against false claims, etc.
VIOFO A129 Pro 4K 1-Channel Dash Cam with GPS
Got it pretty fast and I’m very satisfied with this product 👌🏼. I had a problem with my Micro SD card, I couldn’t reformat it (my computer couldn’t read the Micro SD card). I emailed them back and they responded quickly and I’ll be getting my new Micro SD Card. Thanks Grayson for responding quickly! Awesome customer service!
I had a few questions on the installation, I contacted your tech-support and they were answered. The VIOFO A129 Pro Duo is installed and working perfectly. Absolutely great video much better than my previous Dash cam. I will definitely make my future purchases from you, and recommend you to my friends.
I had the dash cams & external battery installed by Car Toys at the recommendation of my dealership (I drive a 2020 Subaru Forester). The guys at CT did great work, all the wires are neatly tucked away and the camera's placement doesn't interfere with my Forester's Eyesight system.
The adhesive that comes with the cameras is excellent for mounting to glass, but my rear camera is mounted to a textured interior panel and the adhesive didn't hold to it for very long. It fell off after less than day. I slapped on some double sided mounting tape about 2 weeks ago and haven't had any trouble since.
So far the camera works great and does everything as advertised. I am noticing that it somewhat regularly locks files on its own so I'm having to reformat the card every other week when it runs low on "unlocked" files that it can overwrite.
The app is pretty sweet overall. It makes changing the cameras' settings a breeze and I can check their orientations very easily with it. I did have some issues with the app not letting me download video files to my camera, which magically fixed itself after I restarted the camera. The new problem now is the app will give me an error when I try to turn off the camera's recording in order to change the settings. It's not a big deal though, I can still manually end the recording at the camera itself and then the app lets me into the settings menu.
Overall I'm totally happy with this purchase!
