Note: dash cam mirror acts like a mirror when you press display off button and still records.
GPS: sync clock, speed kph/ mph, direction like North East West South
Power module: this is optional if you decide not to use cigarette light port for power then use power fuse kit and connect to fuse box under the dashboard. Power module has leds for 12v.
sir can the Pelsee car camera playbback on phone. incase if your car is stolen??
@@godfather3551 good question
When i turn off the ignition key, the camera immediately goes off too. Looks like there is no battery in it so at least to do a safe shutdown or to register the last clip. Does anyone else has that issue?
I have one now in my car for 8 months and I truly missed it when I was driving a new car rental. The extra wide angle comes in version handy if you have change lanes rapidly. The night visibility is amazing. The bad part is you have to apply a hydrophobic sprayed on the rear camera lens because water does accumulate and make the image hard to see through the surface rain drops sometimes.
I wish I could get this but I have a truck. It can still work if I just put it in the cabin facing the back but I guess it wouldn't be worth it all that hassle. Better just to get tow mirrors.
@juaquiqui-kun4333 get the extra wire kit and it will fit in a truck. Putting mine in a ram 5500 tool truck
I appreciate the dedication it takes to install on a rainy day. ❤
Bought and installed mine around the time you made this video. Only rewatching to install the backup camera
As I've only made 1 pymt on my 2017 Ford C-Max Energi, I haven't quite gotten to the rear camera installation.....kinda dreading drilling into the frame of my hybrid. So far, the only issue I have had with the Wolf Box while only using front mounted on mirror is that I had it unplugged & off my mirror for a week due to in town only driving while doing DoorDash (most of town is 25mph zone) After a week unplugged & off, I had to reset the time & date. Not even a starter issue in my book. I love having it. A nephew saw it in use yesterday & thought it's pretty awesome, as having it show the camera view, he was able to see what I was seeing while driving, as he was sitting behind me in my car.
I'm totally going to install one of these in the future. So cool!
Dude, you don't even own a car... Quit playin'
Thank you so much it was very helpful
you got some dedication to be routing the wires in the rain
Thanks for the review. I'm in the market for this type of gear as I have a 4WD which I can't see anything behind via my rear view mirror, due to the (4WDing & camping) gear I generally carry at the back when I drive it. Your review has helped me make my choice. 👍
Did you get this one, if so did you like it?
@@policeareawsomeroblox1710 I got the Wolfbox G900 and I love it. The best in-car tech I've bought in ages. It's performed well (touch wood).
I was very impressed with this camera system so I ordered it for my 2010 Nissan Rogue. I plan on connecting it to my back up wiring. But I have yet to find a video on how it behaves when actually backing up. Is there a setting where the back up image automatically comes on when put in reverse?
Thank you for a great education. Now I can do this.
I have the g850.
Definitely mount that rear cam Outside. Just above the license plate it's practically impossible to detect even when you know it's there. I've used most other cams including Garmin and all were crap. The Wolfbox is the best I've seen in a decade. Get the optional power supply cable for 24hr recording parked. It's a great tool
Great review. Thanks for sharing
Thank for the helpful video but 1 Question does this have antitheft mode that come with it ?
Nice and great review as always for the dash cam.👍
12:15
This was so helpful and clean
Does the camera extension cord plug in and extend the one that comes with it. Or does it go the length that the extension cord itself is??
The reason why it's so clear is it stopped raining when you installed the camera so the back lens never got wet....lmaoooo
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Just say you’re broke I got myself a $300 one
@@armandovaldes7502 but can you see clearly when it's raining?😏
@@mohammadiaa yes
@@armandovaldes7502 😲
Very cool, i do door dash about 50 hrs a week, im getting one now, the backup cam in my prius is horrid.
In this application 50/60 Hz is referring to the electrical cycle in a specific country. USA and Canada are 60hz, much of the world is 50hz. It’s not frames per second (frame rate) but rather it aligns your camera with the ‘frequency’ of electronic equipment/lighting so your camera doesn’t exhibit flicker or banding in the image from lights.
Great video! Thanks for the thorough review! Also, from Tampa too! 👍
In a car its 12volt dc voltage so there is no 60hz or 50hz so it might be the frame rate
It’s the refresh rate ya goons
Is it possible to save the angle of the camera in reversing mode only? I.e. the camera is pointed upwards during normal driving and when you go in reverse in points down?
Love the video never use wire nuts on a car there for house wiring
Half of my truck's harness is held together by wire nuts. You have to replace them once in a while, but I haven't had any other issues!
It's a helluva lot cheaper than paying someone else to rewire my pickup! :3
This is a very detailed video, thank you very much
You're welcome very much.
Can you adjust the camera itself in the back of the rear view mirro?
Ive seen different mounting orientations for the gps unit, does it matter if you place it on the window vs on the dash so the "up" is facing the sky?
i hope the company build the front camera little longer so we can turn all the way to all angle the reason is that short people sit closer and not be able to see the camera better. but if we can adjust the screen face to us and the camera is still point straight then we are good. beside if the can build something to eliminate the brightness during nighttime with the headlight from the back and sunlight during the day then this camera is the world best dashcam ever. i love it just those issues
Great job brother. Any updates or "wish i would have done something differently?" Thank you in advance for this!!
I've had several of these mirror cams and love them. My last one is having issues after three years so I am considering this brand. Does the camera record 4k or some lower resolution when both cameras are recording? And how well does the GPS antenna work? I've been told they need to be installed on the exterior.
GPS works well and can be installed anywhere on windshield.
Camera records 4K in the front and 1080P in the back - stock setting.
Whats the GPS for
Hi! This gadget looks awesome. Can this thing be fixed on a Merc C200, 2014? Thanks.
Yes, it's universal just confirm the hardwire kit works for the vehicle.
fantastic and informative
If you have it on as a rear view mirror, is itt still recording infront of you incase of accident?
Yup I’m getting it
Thank you
Love the video. I have a question do connecting it to the fuse box drain the battery?
Exactly what I'm wondering
I have a minivan. Will the wire be long enough? To reach the back?
Great Review👍👍
I have an older model no-name brand. My biggest gripe is the daytime glare. It is like a mirror and there is a lot of reflection and the sun really washes out the camera so basically I can’t see anything. I used the anti-glare screen, but it really reduces the resolution and clarity. I built “blinders” around the sides of the mirror which helps but doesn’t look great. How is the daytime glare on this Wolfbox?
Great video!!!! There is another mirror that has Apple car play I guess that it's a bit much.
A must have for living in Tampa! So, was this a keeper or have you swapped it for another unit?
Probably the best one I ever reviewed so far, check the amazon ratings. I also like autovox which is good too.
i’m wondering if i should get one for my 2003 gmc sierra single cab. it i’m not sure if it’d work
Which wolf box would you recommend…g480s , g480h or g580
can it show the edge of the rear bumper while I'm backing up the car? Thanks! :)
anyone know how well this holds up in the winter time in Minnesota?
I would think the rearview camera should be mounted higher up. It's not so much a backup camera as it is for being a digital rearview mirror. As you're driving, you want that higher in oder to see more behind you and if you have a car close behind you, you can see over them better.
@StoneJack But we hv to depend on back camera for our rear view as we hv installed wolfbox dash camera on old rearview mirror....so i guess no choice... I hv installed inside my car at higher location in boot and working fine
@StoneJack He's 100% correct, you should be using the backup camera as your rearview mirror as well. Do you not check your rearview or something?
@@ERidParasoth it has a mirror screen when it’s off it’s just a regular mirror
His placement is good. You need to see how close his bumper is to the other bumper when parking.
Simply the best
I may have missed in the video but when feeding the wires behind the airbag in the a-pillar, do you need to unplug the battery? Is there a chance of setting off the airbag if you don't unplug it?
As well, what if you already have a backup camera installed in the car? Can the connections be similar? or does everything need to be re-wired? Thanks!
Airbags are turned on only by g sensors outside cabin , unless u are going at it with a hammer , I would say no worries
Airbags are overall stable. Only time they are a danger is when you add a power source to them. Shorting them out can absolutely cause them to inflate. We don’t disengage the battery when we work around them as long as we don’t have to touch the power connections for them directly. 🙂
Anytime you have concerns about airbags going off while doing work on any vehicle, just locate and pull the fuse out and replace after the work is completed, that will leave you confident that the airbags will not deploy.
Idk if this was answered or not but can you still record with just using the mirror. Like the screens are off but still recording?
Do I need to wire the red one in order for it to work?
Where can I get the fuse kit from the one you show in the video , due that my new truck doesn’t come with a cigarette lighter plug
Is it dash cam mirror compatible to hardwire add-on kit with BMW 520 5 series 2018?
It don’t bother you while you drive during evening night time Sr ? Thanks cool video
So you have to take out the sd card evey time and download from computer for whatever vid?
Can it be sync to your phone ?
and is there a way or a kit to install directly to the car instead of the existing mirror?
I need this 🔥
Is the redwire to be connected to the reverse light just power wire? I can use any wire to lengthen it?
Was wondering this. Did you ever get an answer?
Does it work on trucks like perhaps a 1999 dodge dakota
How is the video while the car is in motion? I work for a Cadillac dealership and Cadillac's have had something similar (video rearview mirrors) for several years but I can't use them. Something about the video when I look in the mirror almost makes me sick to my stomach particularly if looking at the mirror while going around a corner. Side to side motion is very strange.
Tampatec? Will it work with an existing back-up camera? Great video, dude!
I just installed the GH40S for a youtube review as well and when the control menu comes up the "Play" and "Settings" icons are not highlighted so you cant press them. Have you ever had this issue?
The wolf box is nice
If you are using the GPS, does it display that on the screen?
Can you change to color of the text on the mirror to match your own cars dash colors?
Nice. And the reverse camera?
Is the fuse kit only just to record
So did the lines come on when you put the car in reverse ?
if i want to install this in my honda civic coupe 2011. should i get this hardwere kit? am confuse
How is this mirror at night with potential glare from headlights from other cars?
How long is the reverse red wire from where it splits from the other black wire?
Look like a basic red wire so you could butt-connect a longer wire if needed.
Now if you get into accident and you're looking at the footage can you zoom in to someone's license plates to make the numbers out daytime and night
The footage is stored in the SD card. Once you insert that SD card in your computer or mobile you can zoom in and do basically anything as you can with a normal video.
I have a manual honda civic 2010, can this rear view camera work on that?
hi so i dont need to connect it to the reverse light?
I just bought one of these . I am a little concerned about fixing the rear camera to the outside . I have a landrover discovery and it has a large rear tailgate. Was thinking with all the opening and closing , that the camera would get damaged . Is the camera built that well to allow for this
i put mine on the inside and it works fine!
@@valeriadgarciawhere did you install it? Do you have an SUV?
@@TheHebrew I put it inside my car, I have a sedan
Nice ES350 , GOOD VIDEO BTW !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Which wolfbox model is this?
I like the 900, but I see the 850, 840, 930, and 900, which are you testing?
I often drive my Outback with cargo storage filled to the ceiling. Can this function as a simple rear view mirror running only on the camera?
It looks like it can. I drove an old mustang with one of these.
What's it like at night? Does the backlight bling/distract you at all?
You can easily dim the brightness of the back light at night and at the lowest there is no light in the car
I just got it installed, but I don't have the rear camera installed yet. I keep it turned off to use as a regular mirror, until it's installed. But it keeps turning off and on, even while unplugged. Is there anyway to stop it? It's really distracting
If I have the camera set to look behind me will it still record the front ?
Does it have a voice command?
i have tried a few rea view mirror camera models and the nighttime vision was poor. how is this model at night? i live in tampa and i would be interested in seeing this model in action. le me know. hanks
How does this work with limo tint rear windows?
Great video. Just wish the exposed wiring/switches weren’t so obvious. Great gadget though
does this have motion sensor?
You didn't mention what MODEL of Wolfbox 4k dash & backup camera this was? G930, G900, G840?? That would have been helpful as most of the Wolfbox cameras are 4k.
What If I already have a backup camera can I still hook this up
Does this record in true 4K??
In your area cars have not number plates?
So is it a backup camera or just a rear dashcam?
Have one on my Wolf Warrior King GT pro escooter..good safty
Does it work on night time too? night vision i mean!
Will this fit a 2014 2 series BMW?
I need to know how change picture from back to front on the mirror
You just leave the hole you drilled open? No kind of grommet or seal the hole from water?
Nice
What’s the quality at night time????
At 3:55 you seemed to be sticking two sensors in the upper left interior corner of the windshield. I presume one is the GPS. What is the other?
power button from hardwire kit
Does it cause a paralytic draw by being on when the car is off?
Yes it does but that small box on the power wire has protection and it shuts down the camera under a certain voltage, so you can start the car
Does the recorded video playback show gps info like speed and location?
Yes i believe so but U need to connect to pc. I'll make another video about that for u.
is it a dimming mirror?
I have a ford transit van and it doesn't have a mirror. Could I still use this?
