Unbelievable!!!! Cannot believe he didn't touch the pickup either.

For wiring these dashcams into the fuse box, is it as simple as a couple of youtube vids have done it? hook the negative up, then wrap the positive around one of the fuses that get power when the keys in?
just seems a bit ropey wrapping it round the fuse.

you can get fuse piggybacks which are probably a safer and neater option. its a bit like a double plug adapter for fuses.

You can get an 'add a circuit' from the likes of eBay.

And if you get a camera that already has a plug socket on it then you can get one of these from eBay too.

Then it's just a case of hiding the excess wiring behind the dash and everything can be put back to standard in minutes with no worries about dodgey connections or in cabin fires

Heads up for those wanting to wire these cameras up direct to the fuse box, they're 5v not 12v.

@scooby stu the smoke? Oh I remember the smoke lol

 

[Ricky302]

If it's a mini usb into the camera it's 5v even if it has a car lighter plug at the other end.

ordered one of the piggy backs, much cleaner than wrapping wires round one.

Mines 12v with a positive/negative and an accessorie wire

 

[stevieturbo]

A lot may be fairly flexible on input voltage, but all USB inputs are supposed to be 5v.

The cigarette adaptor will step it down to 5v for the USB.

Uploaded now...

I do that all the time but I don't cut in I find a nice gap to plant the 40sexy into. She doesn't like tight spaces

 

[Sgt_Major]

If there's room for it, I don't mind, but that was a **** move

 

[Ant]

boils my blood every day that, guaranteed there will be a huge gap behind but every arsehole under the sun will try to squeeze in a few car lengths further up from the Whiteabbey lane, least three times a week I see someone leave it so late they try cut over the chevrons

 

[Coog]

Ordered the cheapest I could find to try it out. Memory card cost me more lol

Unbelievable what they can make them for post them and still make money lol

 

[Steve]

Mine was listed as 1080p but there didnt seem to be a setting for it, so I asked the seller if I was missing something. I immediately got an £8 refund. It stands me £1.97 lol

Roundabouts in coalisland are unreal at the best of times, having to look right AND left, now you have to watch out for people overtaking on them aswell.

Make them, the charge lead, mounting brackets, packaging...and post them from China !! And including Paypal and egay fees !!

It'd cost you more to post something just to/from England FFS

Why are you uploading a video to youtube from your phone of a video that's already on a computer?
