This thing is actually beautiful. I seen that two other guys were using BlackVue and that looked nice, but this Thinkware one is looking really nice. Does it loop though? Someone in the best buy comments said that it fills up in approx 12 hours and that you need to manually clear the memory in the morning? What?

Thanks for the links, pictures, and input guys.

Very happy with the Kehan. Picture is really sharp, it has cool features and it stores ~20 hours of data.

We did have a couple of rare instances where it would suddenly "lock up", with it appearing to be recording but isn't, and we have had to remove the card to wake it back up. However, the seller/manufacturer has been surprisingly *very* communicative, responding within 12 hours of reaching out to them; their techs are doing some troubleshooting now. I just answered some questions they sent me and expect a reply shortly. They truly appear to stand behind their product and are eager to make sure you are happy with it. If they have to replace it, no problem.

I am impressed with the quality construction overall and definitely with the customer service thus far. I am also pleased to see several more positive Amazon reviews were added since I purchased it.

Mobius Ver. 3 with Type C lense and capacitor. I have a dash cam thread so you can get an idea of different quality videos, several people mention which camera they're using.

It's fully configurable. Yep it loops. If you get the optional hard-wiring kit, you can configure it in "motion sensor" mode where when the car is off, it is always on and buffering, but not writing to disk. When it sees motion, it then grabs a few seconds of buffer and starts writing until the motion stops.

You also can buy a rear-cam that goes with it - I have it but haven't yet installed it. The tinters are having a devil of a time with my rear window and it's got to be replaced. Once I'm happy with it, I'll install it.

The ONLY thing I don't like is the adhesive tape - it's white/grey and really shows from the front of the car - but hey, we have inspection sticker, registration sticker and toll-tag - what's one more piece. It'd be nice if that adhesive was black, though.

Overall I like it. It's very well made and hasn't overheated EVER in this Texas heat. I'll grab some sample video (if there is any where I'm not grumbling expletives at other dingbats on the road) and post it up this weekend.

I recently got the Mobius ActionCam V3 Dash Cam Kit with Wide Angle Lens from my girlfriend for my birthday. She also got the Super Capacitor so I just had to swap that in and I was set.

Just got it all set up this morning in my car and am trying it out for the first time. Hopefully the video comes out good, but I'm sure I may have to tweak a few settings. Only sucky thing is that my windshield shade kind of blocks it a bit so I'm hoping to motion detection still works.

Same setup I'm running. In the tweaks app it gives some recommended settings for if your using it as a Dash Cam. As far as sun shade goes I moved mine up a bit higher so my shade sits just under it.

Just ordered mine and the hard wiring kit. Should be in on Monday but I'll be in Detroit for the next two weeks for work.

Thanks again for sharing the link and videos man. Think I'm going to be very happy about this purchase. :)
