    Dude! This is such a thorough review off this camera! I was watching another Uber driver's video and he mentioned the N2 and said it was a great camera but it was missing GPS, which I really wanted. You let me know that it's a cheap add on through the mount. This is the one I'll be buying. I've been Ubering for 7 years and have never had a dash cam. Haven't really needed one, but it freaks me out that something could happen in the car and it would be my word against theirs. Or if I'm in an accident, there'd be no footage of who did what. Thanks for a really great review.

    • @TheRideshareCoach

      I’m glad you found some good equipment that suits your needs. The N2 pro has been my go-to dash cam for almost 7 years now. We’ve been Ubering for about the same amount of time. I’m at 6.5 years with Uber/Lyft and this dash cam has saved me a couple of times and I believe people behave more knowing that you have one running. Good luck with your future rides!

      Thanks for the comment. In order to get the videos onto your computer you just need to insert your micro sd card into the slot on your computer. If you need a micro sd card to USB adapter I provided a link in the description of this video to a very good one that I've been using for years. I hope that helps. Let me know if you have further questions.

    Have you tested how long battery life is when it's not plugged in? Guessing GPS mount doesn't work if not plugged in. Would prefer not to have to have a power cable hanging from the windshield... Not using for Uber or driving all day. Thanks and great video.

    • @TheRideshareCoach
      @TheRideshareCoach  Рік тому +2

      You can hide all of the cables in the headliner of your car so nothing is hanging just like how I do for the hardwire parking mode installation. I always have mine plugged in while I drive so I don't know how long the battery will last while recording. Maybe I'll test it unplugged when I have a chance and get back to you.

      Hi,
      The Vantrue dashcam player is mostly used for viewing your footage with the GPS information added to it. If you want to film the process like how I did in my video all you need is a screen recording software such as OBS studio which you can download for free. If you want to edit your actual footage from your dash cam you will need editing software such as the one I use for free which is Davinci Resolve. Cheers! :)

However, Vantrue recommends using either Samsung or Vantrue cards for their dash cam though so I would stick to those 2. The best value is going to be the 256 GB Samsung Evo Select. It's a really good card. Sometimes they go on sale on Amazon too!

      I just tried to format an N2 Pro, June 7, 2023. No luck. I noticed reviews where a good number of people said the Vantrue sd cards were not working. So I went to Walmart last night and purchased a Sandisk 128 GB disc for 25 dollars. I have had no luck being able to format this camera. Can't set the time stamp, and the camera shuts off after 3 minutes being plugged into an AC adapter with a USB cord. a few years ago, I had a Car & Driver dash cam which was much simpler to use so far than this camera, but it was shot after 2 years.

    • @TheRideshareCoach
      @TheRideshareCoach  2 місяці тому

      Sorry for late response, but you need to make sure to format your SD card. I've had no issues with Vantrue SD cards still to this date. You can go to Vantrue.net if you need to download the firmware for any dashcams. This was sometimes a necessary step for some of the older models of the N2 PRO. Formatting SD cards have always been a breeze though with both the Samung Evo Select cards and the Vantrue ones so I'm concerned that maybe you just received a rare bad apple and you should have contacted vantrue to get a replacement because they do have a good warranty and a great customer service department.@@tompastian3447

    • @TheRideshareCoach
      @TheRideshareCoach  Рік тому +1

      Yes, no problem. I explain this in the menu chapter of the video. All you have to do is go into the menu and go to "record setup" and there you can it set it so that just the front camera is on. When you do this it also increases the resolution of the front camera and it films in 1440 P instead of 1080 P, so you would also get that additional resolution bonus on top! The N2 Pro is a great camera that I would recommend even today. It's on sale right now for cyber Monday on Amazon too!

      While you’re recording you can see both camera angles. When viewing the footage on playback on the device you have to view 1 angle at a time because there’s a desperate video file for each camera stored to the micro sd. Download the vantrue software on vantrue.net to view both angles on playback simultaneously on your computer.

    • @TheRideshareCoach
      @TheRideshareCoach  Рік тому

      Yes, because if your camera was left on 24/7 then it would slowly drain whatever battery you have attached to it when your vehicle is turned off. When using the OBD, you would be drawing power from your car battery. The camera has motion detection built in so that it will only start filming if it senses movement or if the G sensor gets activated from banging or collision.

      Check out my menu demonstration at 16:55. You want to make sure you have dual recording setup and you’ll see in the end that I have both camera views displayed in the menu screen while recording. If you’re talking about watching the recorded footage on your n2 pro, you have to watch them separately because the front camera and cabin camera files are stored separately next to each other on the micro sd card. In order to view them same time like in my video, you have to download the vantrue player software to your computer or use a video editor to overlap the footage. The vantrue player software is available on vantrue.net

    • @TheRideshareCoach
      @TheRideshareCoach  Рік тому +1

      As far as my testing and my understanding goes, as long as someone walks in front of your car, the dash cams motion detectors will get tripped off and start recording if you have parking mode on and the dash cam is hardwired to your vehicle. A 1969 car will not have an OBD port so you will have to hard wire your dash cam with the fuse box method. Not too worry though, I have the exact part you need in this description of this video!

      I never timed the exact seconds but seems to be around 2-3 seconds. Also, It may be faster than that if you get hit because the G sensor

      This dashcam is normally powered by the included 12 volt charger which goes into 12 volt/cigarrette lighter charger. It also comes with an included USB-A cable for your PC or wall outlet. So to answer your question, yes it can be connected with one cable but I'm not sure how much output comes out of your mirror. You can try your mirror with a USB-C adapter but I can't guarantee that it's going to work.

      @TheRideshareCoach  Рік тому +1

      Since Illinois is a 2-party consent state, technically you will have to ask your passengers each ride if it's okay to record. Most passengers probably won't mind. If they say no, then you can simply turn off the audio recording which can be done with 1 click of a button on the N2 PRO. That way you can still get the benefit of the video recording. Overall, I'm not even sure if you 100% need to ask for permission each ride because dash cams are kind of a gray area because: 1. It's a security device installed for your safety and protection. 2. The video/audio files are not intended to be used unless something bad happens. 3. The old video footage is constantly being recorded over because most users set it to loop recording so that you never need to change the micro-SD card. 4. Your vehicle is a gray area because it's not really clear if it's a public or private area.

    So I got my Vantrue N2 pro, I am now using it and trying to test it out. I notice when the camera starts it only gave me five minutes and it automatically turns off. What should I do to make sure it’s continue recording continuously, until I turn off my car.

    • @TheRideshareCoach
      @TheRideshareCoach  Рік тому +2

      There's a few things that come to mind. First of all you need to have it constantly plugged in to the 12 volt socket in your car. Watch my video to see how to install it and plug it in.
      Second, you can leave it unplugged for several minutes if you want to remove the device and use it/record with it but it will eventually run out of juice because it's limited to the lithium battery.
      3rd, there's a feature that automatically shuts off the display screen after a certain amount of minutes. You can customize that duration of time or turn off that feature in the menu. It might be that your display is turning off after 5 minutes and not the entire device. I hope this helps and replay back if you need further advice.

After that, if you have a lithium battery and it's fully charged go ahead and format your micro SD card. Last, go on Vantrue.net and download the latest firmware for the N2 Pro. This will ensure that your N2 Pro is optimized with the latest software upgrade. You will have to simply put a .bin file onto the micro SD card that you are using with your N2 Pro. After doing all that, if your N2 Pro still doesn't stay on after disconnecting it then I would assume you have a faulty unit and you will have to contact Vantrue to get a replacement. All units come with a 12 months warranty and an extended 18 months warranty if you signed up for it. Everything you need will be available on Vantrue.net.
