    great vid Bruce - been waiting for this since you said the K3 was coming. Been put off the K5 because of the big box up front, much prefer the slim cameras with the box hidden away. K3 vs K5 would be helpful - I'm leaning to the K3. Also, like you I think would assist me with being a bit more angel like!

    So Bruce - finally got
    my hands on a K3 here in Australia. Took your advice and connected everything on the bench, powered via USB power bank and confirmed all working.
    Then took me about 2 hours to fit the cameras and run the cables neatly on my T7 and replace all the panels I’d removed.
    Imagine my delight and how much I laughed when went to plug everything into the DVR and realised I hadn’t installed the remote unit! F@(k.
    Another hour to run that to my satisfaction and the job was done.
    I use the T7 as a daily commuter and weekend adventures - will be interesting to see how the K3 performs.

    I run a front facing GoPro mounted on the bars purely for record purposes should anything unfortunate happen during the ride.
    This sounds like pretty good value though for two cameras, constant power and all the other goodies thrown in.

    I can see the value in a system like this now. It took 7 months to resolve a claim following a crash, despite the driver admitting fault at the scene. With all of the delays, I missed the entire season on my own bike, had to utilise my own full comp cover to get the repairs done quicker, as well as suffering increased premiums due to an unresolved claim. Thankfully it all went my way in the end. My new bike will have a camera system installed!

    • @teapotone
      @teapotone  3 года назад +1

      Personally, I’d go for the K5 bud. The faster Wi-fi of the K5 makes all the difference if you want to use any of the app functions like viewing the overlaid gps information etc. It just takes too long to download with the K3, but with the K5 is much better.
      The picture quality is also better obviously with the K5 front camera, but if you just want a dashcam for insurance purposes then the K3 is perfectly fine👍

  • @Bowlin01
    @Bowlin01 3 года назад +1

    Thanks Bruce, a good honest review. Now I'm not a RUclipsr so I'm not interested in the microphone, so if I read correctly the only difference between the K2 & K3 is the remote? In your opinion is the remote on the K3 worth the extra dosh over the K2 set up? Thanks in advance.

    • @teapotone
      @teapotone  3 года назад +1

      The remote is VERY handy but not an extra £100 handy if you’re not bothered about the mic.
      However, personally I’d go for the K5, even though it’s a bigger front camera. The system is smoother to use via the app (because of the faster Wi-fi), the image quality is better, and the audio from the mic is better too for some reason - but I appreciate the K5 is quite a bit more money

    Friend, thanks for the review. I also watched the K5 one. But on both I think the main feature you missed reviewing, thats the capacity to recognize the license plates numbers. On a crash, or accident, some people may need to identify the license plate. Is it possible with the K3 or K5 ? Some cameras does not have resolution os frame rate enough to do that. What do you think ? Thanks

      No I haven’t bud sorry.
      For me, if I just wanted a dashcam system and I wasn’t bothered about the absolute best quality footage and I wasn’t fussed about utilising the app to view/share files - then the K3 is absolutely fine.
      However the K5 provides markedly better front footage, and the wifi is significantly faster which makes using the app SO much easier.

  • @thetessellater9163
    @thetessellater9163 3 года назад +1

    Apart from the early footage into the sun, where the GoPro shone {pun pardon required}, it seemed pretty close in quality to the GoPro elsewhere. The rear must have been on a more substantial mount as it was fairly stable, but the front mount caused wobble.
    Better than many in-car Dash Cams. Is the remote a hundred pounds too far?

    • @teapotone
      @teapotone  3 года назад

      Personally I don’t think you can compare the quality of footage, the GoPro is in a different league compared to the K2/K3.
      Yes the rear is mounted off the flexible anti-vibration stem of the rear indicator and definitely seems to give a better image than the front.
      You’re also getting the external mic as well as the remote, over the K2 system - but personally I’d go for the K5.

    Hi. Thanks for the review, very interesting. I’m thinking of installing one on my new R1250RT, but I still have a few questions I’m hoping you might be able to answer. Is a Hex EzCAN indispensable or does it just make the installation easier? Does you have any idea where the modules and cameras are best place on the RT, since I’ve only found installation tips/videos for the GS? Thanks in advance.

    • @teapotone
      @teapotone  2 года назад +1

      Hi Chris,
      No the EZCan is NOT an essential requirement, it just makes installation a bit tidier and also allows a multitude of other accessories to also be wired up easily and some can even integrate with the ‘wonder wheel’ some BMW’s have on the left handlebar.
      Regarding installation on the RT, I’d have to see it tbh.

    Maybe I’m mistaken, but wasn’t the original spec of the K3 going to have a WiFi connection speed of 5Ghz? I have pre-ordered one anyway as I don’t want to be without a dash cam for much longer. Great video and good save on the diesel! Two areas for improvement (and as you stated in the film) - 1. A “delete all” option should be standard and could be integrated into the remote switch and - 2. Increase the WiFi Transfer rate from 2 to 5Ghz.... and a great vid as always Bruce :)

      @@teapotone Using the remote would be a better solution, but in the meantime I'll be using an ezCan Gen 2 Aux1 or Aux2 output 3rd wire as switched live to the Innovv voltage controller and toggling recording using the indicator cancel button. This denies parking/security mode (chaos if enabled in app and you switch off recording while riding!). However, by powering the Innovv from the same Gen 2 output, which is convenient and ensures zero drain from the Innovv when unused for a long period, and a 3 position DPDT switch under the pillion seat, I can have:
      0 - normal Innovv fit & forget operation less parking/security;
      1 - parking/security when also toggled in the app;
      2 - Innovv fully powered up with ignition off to dump video over the slow 2.4GHz wifi to phone after a ride.

      Simple physics bud - you’re phone tracks you according to what nearest phone mast you’re near, and it’s possible to plot these with the relevant times you were there which then allows them to work out a rough average speed between those points.

      Have a look on the DC converter and make sure the little blue led is lit - that tells you there’s power going to the unit.
      If you have power to the system but the remote still has no power, then either you’ve connected the remote up to the wrong port (which I think is impossible to do as it should only fit in one specific port from what I remember), or your remote unit is faulty - in which case I’d contact INNOVV UK.
