    These are better than our multi-thousand dollar dash cams in our police cars. A friend picked up the non-4K version for his personal vehicle and after I saw his, compared to our patrol dash cam footage, I was blown away. I picked up the DR02 "4K" version and am amazed at the quality, size, weight, and ease of use. Good product.

    The1CK They do but more from an auditing and liability perspective. Ours has tamper and heat resistant cases and integrates into the ODB-II data cables for stop/turn/tail/emergency lights and siren activation. Speed, location, audio, and video are the same between this and our units. But really if the mic is used on this dash cam for a police car then you would hear the siren. Forensically speaking the data on this camera would most likely hold up in court because it would be easy to find a tampered video. This dash cam is in my personal truck. I really like it.

Had to use the other supplied mount on the left side where the mirror is further away from the windscreen.

    I have just bought this cam and for the parking mode I am hoping this will work! Using a RS PRO PB-A5200 5000mAh 5V Power Bank Portable Charger (price £15) which supports being charged and charging a device at the same time, I plan to plug the bank into car socket, camera into bank and when engine is turned off, it will then be automatically using the power bank, so that all I have to do is manually start motion detection mode on camera. Start car engine and the 12v car socket powers camera and charges battery pack at the same time. I hope this makes sense , I havent set it up yet so dont know if, or how long this will work for. Theoretically should work.

    If you put the cable from the corner of the windscreen along the seam on the pillar then down the rubber seal on the door frame you won't need the ugly hooks and the cable will be hidden, much neater job.

    You didn't mention the app. Not even mention it. It doesn't work. So the entire wifi feature is useless.

    @@cktechcheck sure. I have the DR02 with Wi-Fi. The aukey app is bad. I'm comfortable in saying that the Aukey DR02 (and possibly more models) are a fair rip-off of the Rexing V1 dash cams. That, by the way, is the app that works properly with this camera. I spent the extra cheese for a Rexing V1 for my wife's car and the Rexing app work fine for the Aukey cam.
