Best video I have found for the installation and I have looked at well over a dozen. You hit on something I was having a problem with which was I bought the suction cup mount and it would not hold to my windshield at all. Very frustrating. It could be the angle of my windshield and you talked about the different angles of windshields in your video so am going to try the basic adhesive option and am hopeful that will work. Excellent video, thank you
You made a good recommendation with re: to testing out the camera. I should have done that first before getting the wiring in place, trying to make a suction cup work that didn't work. After plugging it in (per your suggestion on this great tutorial) before finalizing the set up process, learned my camera doesn't work so will be shipping it back to Rexing for a replacement. Wanted to add something that may be helpful to your viewers. I thought the camera was defective but it ended up being the cable which was replaced and now everything works as intended.
What a great overall instruction. Thank you. Even the final test cams. Wow. I just have to figure out how to run, tuck and hide the wires.
Hey Austin, thanks for the tutorial! I just got the camera and can't wait to use it. Appreciate your video.
I hope you enjoy it, but also that you never have to use it for it's main purpose. Hopefully you can just turn the time stamps off and use it for some cool driving footage! Lol
Thanks for your time reviewing much appreciated.
Make sure you mount the rear camera with the wire going toward the drivers side, otherwise your picture will be upside down. The instructions left that little tidbit out. And you can't fix it in the settings.
Interesting, I didn't realize that, either. I plugged it in to make sure it looked good and did that "naturally." But in theory you could flip it in a video editing software. Ir's not difficult to flip a picture, but you are correct that it is easier for it to already be the correct way.
you can just flip the video though
Nice review. Just bought my second one of these. Also live in the neighborhood in Evans. ;)
Very cool to meet another local! I still love this dash cam. Thankfully, I haven’t had to use it for evidence, but it’s nice to know I have a really good video if something happens.
@@Milledge.Austin I did
Caught a guy keying my truck
@@erocgr00t6 glad you caught him on camera!
I would redo the rear wiring as your wire is in front on the headliner airbags and can interfere in the airbag deployment. I would somehow fish it towards the middle of the headliner behind the headliner airbag.
Good to know. I will probably just take the rear cam down because I’m not sure how much it can see with the bed back there, but definitely don’t want more problems.
@@Milledge.Austin Wish they made external rear cams that were wireless and did not need cable routing
Agreed. Would make it a lot better for sure.
I’m sorry but 4K is the UHD option in resolution? And I noticed it’s kinda laggy and slow when on that option. I had that camera and told them them the company about the lag and they are like never experienced that and I see that now not only my car but I think mostly all cars will run 4K at low fps and scaled low that way it’s laggy and slow recoding ? What you think? Should I do mine on maybe FHD or the lowest option or? Thank you!
Thank you for this.
Glad you enjoyed this.
If anybody is having problems with wrexings malfunctioning app there's an app called Tima Cam that does what it's supposed to
That's a helpful tip. I have definitely found that sometimes third party apps are the way to go because they figure things out quicker.
Did you go back and take the film off the rest camera lense, I purchased the mounting bracket that hooks to your rear view mirror arm, no worry about falling down and unstuck, ty for the video
Yup. I made sure to get the film off both cameras. The rear facing one was a little bit of a pain because where it is and I initially forgot, but all good now.
Hi, can you give me the resolutions and frame rates of the 4K on the V1GW-4K, I can't find them anywhere, only 4K and that does not tell you much with the amount of fake 4K advertised, even the Rexing VI-4K is not 4K but the VI-Max is true 3840x2160 , but I can't find out about this one.Thanks.
The front-facing camera is true 4K at 24 fps. It has 3 levels you can record at (1920x1080, a middle level, and then true 4K), but it films at 24fps, which I know isn't the greatest for trying to slow things down for frame-by-frame in most instances, but that is what they have given. The back camera is a constant 1920x1080 at 24fps. I also just double checked by bringing in footage from this morning to a 4K timeline I have set up.
@@Milledge.Austin Ok thanks but when you say true 4K do you mean 3040 x 2160 because from what I have now read is only the V1P Max has true 4k.
@@yeahrightmate no, the timeline I just pulled it into is 3840x2160 and I didn’t have to upscale it.
@@Milledge.Austin Sorry I don't understand what that means, I just check the details in the properties of the video.
Lol, I recognized all the areas, I live in Augusta since 2007 but im living in Modoc sc now at the lake, just 25 minutes away . Thanks for taking the time, I ordered the rexing Ai but its way to big so its going back. I'm considering this model, how are you liking it so far?
Haha it's always fun to recognize spots you have visited or lived near.
I have enjoyed it. While it doesn't give me a discount on my insurance like I had hoped it would, it's nice to have because I'm sure you know people in DT Augusta aren't the best drivers. And it did come in handy one day when I saw an all-electric Rivian truck for the first time. I haven't used a lot of the features, like GPS and such, but the quality is good and it's easy to use.
Brilliant video, horrible Muzak spoiled it for me so I hit mute…not ideal. Plus perhaps if you had mounted the rear camera on the opposite rear window no trailing wire, might be wrong on that one perhaps.
Austin, I just bought and installed this dash camera and am impressed with the quality of the videos. BUT I am having an issue with the GPS logger software on the computer. The map just shows NYC and it does not animate and follow along my drive when I play files. I did a firmware update, but it has not fixed it. Can you tell me if you have had any issues with this? I did reach out to Rexing and so far all they sent was a generic email of stuff that I already did.Thanks for the video. It really helped me!
I haven't played with the GPS logger feature, but I will definitely give it a try and see what I can learn.
@@Milledge.Austin Appreciate it! I suppose its really not necessary in the long run.
@@jane112wedge even so, you want it to work or to be able to use it should you need/want it.
Just installed it last week same problem with GPS logger stuck on NYC. Never had this issue on my street guardian dash cam. Have you fixed it yet? Thanks
Seems like the way you ran the cable to the rear camera might interfere with the side curtain airbags?
Hopefully I never have to find out, but I’m honestly not sure. Never have seen anything about running wires that way and then affecting the side curtain airbags.
This is a great video but I have a question on something the instruction manual in the box does not seem to address. Is the use of the thin electrostatic piece absolutely necessary or just an optional enhancement? Does it remain in place permanently? What is its purpose?
I don't think it's 100% necessary. I saw a couple similar videos where they didn't use it. Mine has remained in place and seems to be holding strong. It might just be an added layer of making sure the camera stays mounted to the windshield when dealing with temp changes and condensation.
@@Milledge.Austin Thank you very much again. The more I think about it, the more perplexed I am as to why the official instruction manual in the box omits coverage of this part and step. Your explanation helps but I wish the instruction manual had made this clear from the getgo.
@@greenerpastures3528 I definitely agree. That is interesting. I have some other things I need to check on, like people having their GPS messing up. Maybe I'll contact them if I run into a similar issue and see what's up.
@@Milledge.Austin Well, yesterday I completed the installation and now look forward to taking the car out for a drive once the weather clears up. Your video proved quite helpful in providing a detailed walkthrough of the process and filled in some gaps (no pun intended) on points that in my view should have been addressed in the instruction manual. On my car, I did encounter a few spots where it is all but impossible to tuck the cable neatly inside the gaps, thus leaving exposed cable in a few places but overall the look is not too bad. In the process, though, I had a second question on something that does not seem to be covered in the instruction manual. On the right side of the main unit, there is a circular port between the micro-USB port and the other circular port in front for the rear camera cable. It has no label or icon and, unless I missed it, is not mentioned in the manual. Do you know the purpose of this port? Is it perhaps a secondary power port of some kind? Or does it serve some other purpose? I continue to find it curious that the instruction manual that comes with the equipment appears to be silent on such things. Anyway, once thanks for your video and insights.
@@greenerpastures3528 what kind of car do you have? Without the unit right in front of me right now, I wonder if it might be for an interior camera or a mic. I remember seeing the second jack as well, and I thought I remember seeing something about it. I will see what I can find.
Hi Austin, Thanks for your video on this dashcam, Truly helps. I have two questions for you.
1. I have a Toyota Highlander and that came with a factory fitted dashcam. I have ordered this Rexing V1PGW camera with sole intention of using it as rear camera. Do I need to be aware of any setting or installation trick to use this as a rear camera as this unit is not sold as rear camera?
2. Does it have any setting to keep the lcd display off, while I am driving. I want to avoid a light distraction reflecting on my rearview mirror.
Regards
Hi Rajat, you are welcome. Do you plan to use the main camera as the rear-facing camera? It might be difficult to position it depending on the materials on the back end of the Highlander.
As for turning the screen off, yes. On the same menu page as formatting the card (second page, I think), there is an option for turning the LCD screen off after 3, 5, or 10 minutes. I know it’ll be annoying for that short amount of time, but it is an option.
@@Milledge.Austin Thanks for you prompt response. Yes, I am planning to install on the inside surface of the rear glass, facing rear. The glass is tinted but should be sufficient to capture the view outside.
On the LCD screen timeout setting, 3 minutes is ok to stay on.
Wanted to add that I have ordered only the main camera.
How long does the recording loop run before it starts to re-record ?
It all depends on the resolution you set it to and the size of your memory card.
Also, I just double checked my settings, and you can choose 1-, 2-, or 3-minute intervals.
How do u connect it to the phone ? I tried to follow the manual but it doesn’t connect
I haven't done this in a while (I usually just take out the micro SD card and download the footage), but I will try it again this afternoon. I feel like it took me a try or two as well when I first installed the camera.
Does it detect sideswipes?
It has a feature where it detects a bump/hit and can turn on, so I would assume so. Especially because I have never seen a sideswipe that wasn’t still like a battering ram.
Looking for something for my Jeep Wrangler. Do you know if the rear camera is waterproof? Need to mount outside so I can still remove roof.
I am willing to bet it is not waterproof. The good thing is that it can be unplugged and the front camera will work without the rear camera. Not sure if it could be/would be worth mounting on the middle sound bar/roll bar or whatever they call the middle support? With the roof on, might not be able to see much out the back, but might be. I have a 2007 Jeep Wrangler and miss that thing bad.
@@Milledge.Austin once you have a Jeep it’s hard to go back. Thanks for the reply. I decided to go with another brand just to be safe.
@@TexasLady220 sounds good! Which one did you go with, just out of curiosity.
@@Milledge.Austin Kingslim D4 4K Dual Dash Cam. Here’s to hoping it’s not a piece crap. It got decent reviews so I’m going to try it out.

I’m not impressed with color saturation at any resolution.
In addition to , 30fps is too minimal.
60fps should should be an option in order to loose the blur.
What you have to keep in mind, if you were in an accident, impact or fast motion / jerk of the camera will have practically unreadable image / video at 30fps.
2 of 3 cameras i have with 60fps , the video in way smoother.
Agree to disagree. From the testing and viewing I've done, the color saturation is fine to me, and 30 fps has been fine in my opinion. 60 fps would be nice, but 30 is just fine to get details needed if an accident happened. Considering how bad security cameras have been and they have been used for identifying and convictions, I'm ok with this setup.
Always have alcohol available.
Alcohol is a very important thing to have on hand in any form.
Hate this company. Terrible customer support.
