Someone hits your parked car and drives off. No witnesses. Insurance asks for proof you don't have.
This 4K dash cam records both front and rear in crystal clarity, day or night, with precise date/time stamps on every file. Its 6-layer lens with IR support handles glare and low light. Built-in WiFi lets you download footage straight to your phone in seconds. The super capacitor survives New Zealand heatwaves, and time-lapse parking mode monitors for hours without filling your card. You get the evidence, not the blame.

Applications
Real-World Scenarios
Daily Commuter Protection
Rush hour traffic. Sudden braking. The car behind doesn't stop in time.
Dual cameras capture both angles, 4K front shows the road ahead, 1080p rear shows who hit you. The G-sensor automatically locks the clip as evidence. WiFi lets you download and share with insurance before the tow truck arrives. Every file is stamped with the exact date and time for indisputable documentation.
Overnight Security Monitoring
Your car's parked on the street. Motion detection wakes the camera when someone approaches, but for all-night coverage, switch to time-lapse mode.
It captures one frame every few seconds, condensing hours of monitoring into a short, manageable file. The super capacitor powers it without draining your car battery. Morning comes, check the app to see if anything happened while you slept.
How it Works
Plugs into your 12V cigarette lighter (5V 400mA input). Powers on/off with your engine automatically. Front camera records 4K to a microSD card (up to 128GB, not included). Rear camera connects via cable. Built-in WiFi lets your phone connect directly to download clips or stream live view. GPS and G-sensor data embeds into every video file. The adjustable lens lets you fine-tune the angle after mounting.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. Does this dash cam work without a constant internet connection?
Yes, absolutely. The dash cam is a standalone recorder. WiFi is only used when you actively connect your phone to download footage or view live video. All recording happens independently to the microSD card.
2. Are there any ongoing monthly fees or subscriptions?
No. There are no hidden fees or required subscriptions. The included features (GPS logging, safety alerts, parking mode) work without any monthly cost.
3. How do I access and share the recorded videos?
You have two convenient options. First, use the built-in WiFi and our free app to connect your phone directly to the camera and download clips instantly. Second, you can remove the microSD card and plug it into your computer. Most users find the WiFi method fastest for sharing a specific clip with insurance.
4. Will using parking mode drain my car's battery?
The risk is minimal. The super capacitor and efficient design draw very low power in parking mode. For extended protection (multiple days), we recommend our optional hardwiring kit, which includes voltage monitoring to prevent battery drain.
5. Is the rear camera truly weatherproof for New Zealand conditions?
Yes. The rear camera is rated IP67, meaning it's dust-tight and can withstand immersion in water up to 1 metre for 30 minutes. It's built to handle rain, car washes, and our climate.
6. What's the real advantage of a super capacitor over a lithium battery?
Super capacitors are far more reliable in the extreme heat of a car dashboard. Lithium batteries can swell, leak, or fail in high temperatures. Super capacitors charge faster, have a longer lifespan (5+ years), and are inherently safer, making them the professional choice.
7. How does the time-lapse parking mode work?
When you enable time-lapse mode, the camera captures one frame every 1-3 seconds (configurable in the app). This condenses hours of monitoring into a short, fast-forward video that's easy to review. It's perfect for overnight security or monitoring your car in a long-term car park without filling your memory card.
8. Can I turn off the audio recording feature?
Yes. Audio recording can be easily enabled or disabled through the camera's settings menu via the app. This allows you to comply with local privacy laws or personal preference.
9. How do I ensure the date and time on my videos are accurate?
The camera syncs its clock via GPS when you start driving. For the initial setup and if the car is parked indoors for extended periods, you can also manually set the time through the app. Accurate timestamps are crucial for evidence, so we recommend a quick GPS sync before relying on parking mode.
10. What should I do if the camera stops recording?
First, check that your microSD card is correctly inserted and has available space. We recommend using a high-endurance card (Class 10 or U3, up to 128GB) from a reputable brand. Format the card in the camera every few months to maintain performance. Our local support team can also guide you through troubleshooting steps if needed.
