Looks quite compact which is always handy. I think I learned more about your dash cam and the settings than the one I bought - always interesting to see all the settings 😀 have a lovely weekend- all the best, David & Rachel
Thanks David. It is a very simple dash cam but really good quality video. In fact I would be happy to put clips into my video although I suspect Ellie will still film lots. 🤣. Thanks for your comment. All the best to you both and Roxy xx 🧙🚐
A comprehensive review Graham of a product that looks very good. Given the "idiot drivers" a dashcam is an absolute must in my view. We have a Nextbase 522gw in the van and also one in the car. Our only disappointment is that you cannot add additional dashcams to the app. To get around the issue I have the van on mine and my wife has the app for the car on her phone. Looking forward to catching up with your next vlog. Stay safe guys. Sid and Nicola, Rugby.
Thanks Sid. My original is a Nextbase. Not sure as I type this what model it is but the VIOFO is so much better. But I may be comparing apples to oranges if you know what I mean. I quite enjoyed fo this review when in fact I thought I wouldn’t. Thanks for your comment. 🚐👍🧙
@Wizardinthewild Graham, the important thing is that you have something recording the journey. It looks to be very user friendly. If I have one complaint about our van it's the lack of a rear view mirror. I understand Fiat fit a digital rear view mirror on some vans. Sadly I have not been able to locate an after market alternative.
A fair honest review Graham, as I mentioned on FB we were offered one but I didn’t take it, in honesty we don’t use a dash cam and I suppose we should really, nice little channel plug in there too!
Yeah I wanted to try a review as I hadn’t done one before, well not an official one so to speak. I quite enjoyed the process although I’m not sure it will add much to the channel. I doubt I will do many more but never say never 🙏🧙🚐
@ they don’t do well initially but they tend to slow build from non subscribers, I like doing reviews as in my opinion it’s a nice way to get paid without asking subscribers for cash (I know you do a little so I’m not judging) in my opinion a corporate company paying me with a gift of an item I want is justified and if my subscribers don’t like then tough as I’m not a charity and they don’t pay me to watch my content, I do however make sure to keep the thumbnail and title exactly accurate as I really hate paid promotion subliminally added in a normal vlog. We’re all different and that works for me. I’ll continue to do bikes/power banks if I want 👍
Yes hopefully I made that clear on my thumbnail. I’ve actually had quite a lot of review requests lately including one for dog food !! I have refused them all except this one. You are right about trying to make a bit of cash. Why not? It takes a lot of effort as we know. Thanks for your input 👍
Thank you for the review, Graham, this was very helpful and give me some further ideas. I am looking for a small and easy to handle device, just like this one. Have a nice week, Gabriela 👋
Thank you. Pleased it was worthwhile for you. I seldom put our videos like that so good to hear it was useful. Hope you are keeping well and thanks for commenting 🙏👍🚐🧙
I was very surprised at the quality. My existing Nextbase videos are very poor if I put them into a vlog. Vids from this one would be fine. I think I may put my old one in my car and use this in Merlin. Still thinking. 🙏🚐👍🧙
🤣 yes the chicane at Cirencester. You’ve obviously been. Funny enough we are going back there next weekend. Using my free night with them. Hope you are both good. Swift going well ? Take care. 🧙🚐👍🙏
We have fitted the A119 mini and found it to be easy to hard wire into the CV40. I didn't want visible wires. We purchased the wiring kit separately. When it's hard wired, it acts as bump CCTV when you're parked up.
I will get it hardwired if I use it full time which I think I will. Like you I would want to hide the wires. Seems a good idea to get the cable that allows you to use it when parked up. Thanks for commenting I do appreciate it. 🚐🧙👍🙏
Jane really wants a dashcam so useful review
Thanks Stu. Quality is good. Dies what it says on the tin. 🙏👍🚐

Thank you, Graham, for the review. You gave some great information about this dash cam 😊
Thank you. I enjoyed doing it. Made a change for me. 🤣

@@Panzerman1951 now that is also something I would love to install and review. Love the mirrors on Merlin but I also miss a rear view one. 🧙🚐🙏

@@Wizardinthewild some of the things offered beggar belief 🤣 take care 🙏
Thanks for the review you put lot of research in Graham thank you. Michael uk care home resident xx
Thanks Michael. In fact there was a lot of work went into it but I quite enjoyed doing it. 🤣. Hope you are still improving. Xx
Yes it's nice bit of kit we my have one later this year.
Yes it does what it says on the tin. The quality will be more suitable for inserting into our travel vlogs. Win win. 🧙🙏👍🚐

Interesting, maybe replacing my dashcam soon and this looks good.

Looks a nice bit of kit and easy to use especially with the app. Cirencester exit by chance 😉. All the best

Found this interesting, I would like a better dash cam. I could leave my old one in the car, safe having to keep swopping it from camper to car. 👍🐸
My old one is a Nextbase and comparing it to this one is chalk and cheese. Thanks for commenting Simon 🚐🙏👍
