Your reviews are really helpful in buying decisions, as they're much detailed and doesn't miss essential details as opposed to promotors videos. Thanks n plz keep up the good work And plz suggest a dashcam with 4G in India, helps if you make a dedicated video
Please let me know 1)is this can be used as normal rear view mirror? 2) is this gives reverse parking assistance with distance display? 3) is this mirror dashcams screen is always on?
If you see the full video, you can find the answers to all your questions. I guess you didn't see the video. Nevertheless, 1. Yes it can be used as normal mirror. 2. Yes it gives reverse parking assistance with guide lines. 3. You can turn on or turn off the screen as per your requirement. It's not always on
Sir, just 1 question how does it perform while using just as mirror on high beam coming from car behind..does the mirror auto dims the high beam or it is just like normal glass which reflect all the light to our eyes.
Hello and greetings, I liked your explanation and I'm interested in that dashcam. With the time you have already been using how is its performance and if it suffers from heating, thank you for sharing
Thanks for the awesome review friend, looks like I might be making this purchase.. when it comes to the rear view camera.. I hear it's bad, am I able to upgrade it to another? what connection is the rear view camera? Also do they offer a direct mount? thanks! Thank you!
Respected travel tech sir I like this dashcam70mai s 500but i feel i will face one issue.. The rear dash cam is fitted externally which is not at advisable.. Can u suggest option only for rear view dash cam which can be fitted inside the car... Eagerly waiting for your reply sir
@@traveltechyoutube Sir mirror dash cam 70mai s500 only but im worried about the rear cam which is fitted outside the car.. Any option for the rear dash cam only which can go well with 70mai s500???
Hello Sir, Very nice video. I want to ask that can the reverse camera fit in the same slot where the orginal company fitted camera comes. I have xl6 zeta cng which comes without the rear camera. I want to fit the rear camera of 70MAI S500 in the same place where original camera would have come.
Hi, it’s a very informative video, thanks, Can we use reverse camera features without connecting red wire to reverse tail gate (if we don’t want wire cutting n warranty void! ), so if reverse camera so require during reversing we can do it on screen touch ?
Yes, you can. Its not compulsory to connect red wire to rear tail light. You can always shift the view to rear camera using touch screen. But you wont get the reverse assist guide lines on it.
I am looking for a wide angle rear camera 170 degrees minimum and more even distorted. The S500's camera is only 138 degrees, however is it possible to install a wide angle camera?
Yes it is. Most dashcams catch lot of glare and reflections due to bright sunlight. CPL filter will remove all that and give you clear videos. It's worth it
The angulation required to get a proper view of the rear might not be possible with tail gate window mount. You might do a mock installation and check the view before installing permanently.
You can use the rear camera view anytime you want. Connecting to tail lights only provides the 'guiding lines' on the screen. If you don't require guide lines, you can use without connecting to tail lights.
Nice video as always. Can I install the rear dashcam that comes with this unit in a car like Honda Brio? It has small area on the rear compared to other cars.
Correct. The rear camera does get a screw mount. You have to install the rear camera using the provided screws which will make it difficult for anyone to just grab the camera.
@@traveltechyoutube Yes I understand, but if you can just screw it off and run away with it, if you leave the car outside for a few hours, someone creative can easily take it in seconds if I'm not mistaken.
Yes they can. And that's why if you are too concerned with it, you can install it inside. But getting the proper camera angle will be difficult as the installation position will vary with cars. You have to do a mock installation in your car to check for proper camera angle. If it works out, fix it permanently in that place.
Thanks for the video Does it have auto dimming feature during the night time to see tailgating cars with strong headlights Is there a similar irvm with 4k dashcam that you would recommend?
i have read some post saying that in real time usage the screen will shake and has blurry effect. not practical for day to day use.. pls share your opinion on this?
Incorrect. I have tested this camera extensively and there is no shake or blurry effect. You have to make sure that you mount the camera tightly with the given straps. Incorrect mounting will cause it to shake.
@@traveltechyoutube Thanks for your prompt response.. also, one of the shopkeeper told me during the daytime, there are reflections which will have distractions. I just want to ask you if that is a major concern, or is it manageable via some adjustment of the mirror?
I have shown this in the video, that if you align the camera towards the rear windshield, it will cause reflection on the mirror. It has a simple solution. You have to align the mirror towards the non reflective part of the car like rear seats etc, then it won't have any reflection.
I am using this and yes shake is observed occasionally which is inconvenience for day to day use. Also reflection is observed but solution is already mentioned to adjust the mirror to non reflective or less reflected parts of car
Hi, when you turn off the display to use it like just a mirror for rear view, does the camera (front & rear) still record or they are also turned off?? Thanks.
Hello brother, I got a second question. As you explained I wanted the bacl cam to connect to the reverse light for revesre camera gyudelines. Can we connect without wirecut to avoid warranty?
You don't have to cut any wire. All you need to do is disconnect the reverse light wire plug, from its socket and connect the dashcam reverse signal cable wire into the same socket and put back the plug into its place. The reverse signal wire(from the dashcam) will get squeezed between the connecting terminal of the car's reverse light and it's connected socket. I have connected it the same way in my car. You can remove this wire again anytime you want. No wire cutting needed.
You have to connect the backup signal cable (red) of the rear camera to your car's reverse light connection. It will then switch automatically when you put your car in reverse gear.
Hello, tried reaching you ..appreciate the work you are doing.. I need your help in understanding few things.. I have recently got woodman 2.5k dashcam with hardwire kit included in it .. The hardwire kit needs to be hardwired in the fuse box , ignition, battery and ground are the 3 connection. Question/ my understanding is when the car is parked it will take power from car Battery to run .. but I can't find an option of turning that off when cars battery drops to certain level like we have in other dashcam..so that means if I park my car for long time it will drain my battery right ? I tried connecting with woodmen support they have no clue.. please advise
I haven't tried the Woodman dashcam yet. But all hardwiring kits usually come with a control box within them, which monitors the voltage of the battery and cuts off power once the pre determined voltage is reached, for example 11.8V or 12V. Also, the app usually provides battery protection feature, but I don't know if Woodman app has it. I've tried reaching out to Woodman to get a review unit.
Exactly. This is a drawback of all mirror cameras. I have explained the advantages and disadvantages of having a mirror dashcam, in the following video: th-cam.com/video/S_PQPOUh1KM/w-d-xo.htmlsi=5ExdF_NprhPw3U3S

Definitely yes

Performance has been good and satisfactory. No significant heating. Taking out the memory card is a bit of a hassle, but not a deal breaker.
