One of the best DashCams on the Market

Install was a bit of a pain. It appears the power magic doesn't work at first, but it really does. I have another BlackVue in the truck and it helped me figure out what was going on. First, you need to make sure it is grounded properly and then you need to start the vehicle. Just turning the key to ACC didn't work, I had to start the engine and then it worked. So those that had/have issues, try starting the vehicle when all else fails.

Trying to get the app to connect via the Wi-Fi was a bit of a Opps as well. Turns out you have to go to the device settings (iPod Touch in this case) and actually connect to the BlackVue like it was it's own network/hub/router whatever you want to refer to it as. Using the default password of blackvue, I connected and then started the App, hit the BlackVue Wi-Fi to connect, and was able to connect to it and Live View and see all the recorded files and play them and such. This was a big plus because getting the microSD card out would require you to unplug both cables (Power and Rear Camera Cable) to open the cover and get the card out. I was also able to change the password to something a bit more secure and save it to the device. Had to unplug it and let it shut down for the changes to be saved. Then I had to reconnect using the new (8 characters restriction) password. When your car is near a Wi-Fi your device is automatically set to connect to, you will have to manually go into your devices settings and get off said network and join the BlackVue device's network instead to use the app. A bit of a hassle, but it does work!

I really like having my rear covered as well with this 2CH setup and I love how the software on the PC plays. It will be nice when they get the Wi-Fi app to work exactly the same! I can imagine how nice it will play on an iPad! The only real con I have with this is how difficult it is to get the microSD card out of the unit. Everything else about it is great! The cable for the back camera was rather long and I had to tuck about 2 to 3 feet away but it's all routed nicely and hidden perfect and I'm set to go!

BlackVue DR550 is great;

Reviewed in the United States on September 9, 2014

Verified Purchase

I brought my dashcam from HD Video Depot. It was the BlackVue DR550. It came within a week. I paid to have it installed by my auto mechanic because I did not want to wire the "Power Magic" to the fuse box. It records while parked and the Power Magic protects it from draining the battery. The 550 has the silver ring around the lens of the front camera so I used a flat black SHARPIE from the office supply store to color the silver ring black and I put a heat resistant black electrical tape on the holder to cover the silver color. I want the camera to be invisible. I went into the setting and turned off the LED blinking security lights. The finished product is almost invisible. Look at the description of the 550 and it does what it says. There is a new model out called 650 but with a 64 MB SD-DISK it is almost $480, which is more than I wanted to spend. So the below $380 for a 32 GB one was affordable for me. You might want to wait for Christmas for the price of the 650 to drop to below $400 and get one, but other than a larger memory and slight improvements there is little difference between the 550 and the 650. I either damaged the audio visual cable or it came with a bent pen, but either way the warranty folks for HD Video Depot took care of the problem immediately. There are three major dealers, one in Vancouver who is excellent as shown on YouTube, one in the North East, and HD that is in California. Go on YouTube and look at each of their internet sites, and find the best deal; but whatever you do, get the Magic Pro included in the price.

Has a few issues

First of all - if I knew then what I know now after the return period is over (30 days) I wouldn't have purchased it
I purchased this item in January and after a few uses, I learned a few things about it and got it working fairly well.... come spring/ summer, the vehicle gets pretty warm inside, I came back to my vehicle only to find the camera and holder had fallen on the dash because the mounting pad adhesive had gotten a little to warm and could no longer support the weight of the camera... (yes,I did thoroughly clean the glass before mounting.)
The other crappy thing is when you remove the camera from the holder you disconnect both cables, one from the front camera and the other from the rear camera. the connection from the front camera is fine, but the cheezy 1/8" coax cable they give you for the rear camera plugs right in next to the front camera and you must do this while laying on the dashboard (awkward position) and try to put the connector in straight, if you are not dead on straight the center pin gets bent and you are SOL, if you are having to take the camera in and out of the vehicle eventually, you are going to not insert it straight and then find it useless along with the mounting bracket they give you for the rear camera.

You would think you would get something a little more "robust" for something that has to be inserted in a tiny orifice, when you choose to remove it from the vehicle, and the price that was paid - email to the seller "HD Video Depot" failed to garner any attention nor a note/email to thank me for my purchase.

Reboot every 5-10 minutes after 3 weeks or so

Reviewed in the United States on September 18, 2014

Verified Purchase

Initially it worked as supposed and my wife and I felt quite good (we bought this after a non-minor car accident my wife was involved). However, about three weeks after the installation it started rebooting every 5-30 minutes. Now it's been about two month and it simply does not record. It tries to reboot every 5-10 minutes (I said it "tries" because it cannot finish rebooting process). It stops before finising "Blackvue for your safe driving. Start normal recording" voice note. I formatted SD card many times and it didn't fix it. So, I it is in the car but no recording is done. I guess I will send it back! Didn't expect this kind of problem for ~$400 product!
