Well, my friend's Parked Car was scratched up two nights ago without any footage on U1000 with Radar. He was expecting at least the capture of this incident since the criminal would have walked up that Car and not a Ghost. WHY?
Hello There, I am very sorry to hear about this incident. As the RADAR allows the Dash Cam to only record Impacts from sedan sized objects and larger, this would be unable to capture the culprit. Please reach out to us at support@thinkware.com so we can assist you further with this setup.
Is there a feature that will make the dashcam alert you if there's been a recorded incident when you start your car up after being in parking mode? I don't check my dashcam footage unless I know there's been an incident. So if it could say there's been a recorded incident when the car is started again, that would be great.
70mai does that. If they have filmed something(i dont use timelapse, thoit has that mode) it says you habe new video, and its stored in separate folder where its not being over written
I’ve got a U 1000 on the way, and we’ll be hardwiring it. If in the future I decided to get the OBD option (the one that allows access to the OBD port after instal) well it also give me any extra options on the phone screen showing water temp, oil, or anything else. I’ve been researching dash cams for SOOOOOO long I can’t find where @ least one brand mentions these features. Thanks in advance for any input.
I am trying to do the research before I invest in one of these! I can see getting the battery and have it installed. The problem is from the battery to the camera all the install kit I can find have battery drain protection which makes no sense for doing this type of installation! (What’s the work around? Or do you have any idea? As I assume that’s why you use the cigarette lighter adapter. I have the van true E3 (any help would be appreciated )
Hello Dorrie, Yes, while driving the camera records in 1 Minute increments! You can access your driving footage in your file list under the folder named: continuous. Thank you!
Hi! Thinkware dash cam features parking mode recording which includes motion detection. Please reach out to us via email at support@thinkware.com to learn more. Thank you!
Why is my parking mode shutting off after 5 minutes ? This started afew months ago. Never happened before. I’m using the OB2 cable since day one. Q800 pro dash cam is what I have. Had it for about 4 years now
Hello Dave, Most likely the Voltage Cut Off setting will need to be lowered after long-term use, for further assistance please reach out to us at support@thinkware.com
Hi There, the Rear Cam is still detecting all motions and impacts. In case an impact happens in the Rear, the Rear Cam will still detect that and save the video!
yes its impossible. still a good cam but bad software. i even got a built in wifi in my car but the camera won't stay connected. although it has that feature but it wont work
We paid for this and we aren’t able to use this feature? Than , this is a false statement made by Thinkware , with the purpose of selling more of their dashcams. This must be audited by the relevant authorities!
@@AIRfree I know, we are very unfortunate. We go by reviews until we actually have it in our hands. That would be one the best feature but it just doesn’t work. I got me a hotspot but won’t stay connected after one minute.
Had one, my car was hit and the camera only recorded 1 second of video. Contacted support and was told " SD card might be bad". Replaced SD card, proceeded to test by hitting the windshield and out of 10 tests, it only recorded the full 10 seconds 4 times. Do not waste your money on this camera, go buy a more reputable one such as Garmin.

After the Thinkware dash cam has cooled down from a thermal protection shut down, will it automatically switch back on again during parking mode?
Does the motion detection works on human? Or I need to change the motion detection sensitivity in order to detects human?
The engine saving mode sounds pretty neet only down side is it doesn't detect people
Will you get impact notifications when the dash cam is in energy saving mode? Please confirm this. Thanks
Best dash cam I owned in years got u1000 and no regrets worth every penny bought 2 of them and gonna buy battery pack
Whats the best perks for it? Which dash cam did you have before and what'd you do with it?

Hello Dorrie,
Yes, while driving the camera records in 1 Minute increments! You can access your driving footage in your file list under the folder named: continuous. Thank you!
In motion detection how it records the video before the impact...? Hw it knows tht there ll be an event in ten seconds?
I have a question here, somebody keeps stealing my rear wiper. Does the parking mode can record a human getting close to my car?

Can I view parking mode/live video from the comfort of my home?
just got the u1000 sorry to say this but it wont. still a good cam but the software is shitty
does obd-II cable of thinkware matches in toyota hybrids?
Hello there. Unfortunately, the OBD cable is not compatible with hybrid vehicles. If you have a hybrid vehicle, we recommend using the hardwire cable!

@@thinkwaredashcam what you mean long term use?? It’s never done it before , I’ve even lowered the battery protection voltage
@@davesuppa9434 HI Dave, We will reach out to you to assis you further with this issue!
Does the back camera record in parking mode?
Yes, it does! Both cameras record in sync, everything captured by the Front Cam, will be captured by the Rear at the same time.
A front radar module only protects you in the front. It appears it leaves you unprotected in the rear.
Hi There, the Rear Cam is still detecting all motions and impacts. In case an impact happens in the Rear, the Rear Cam will still detect that and save the video!
@thinkware FALSE
question. If i get pull over by police, i usually turn off my engine. How do i keep my camera rolling ?
After you turn off the engine, turn the key to the "on" position, just don't start the car.
hard wire it, even if you turn it off camera will keep recording
@@EsenbekAliev_ only for 30 seconds when it detects impact.
Is live viewing from outside the car impossible, even with constant power and and wifi internet connection?
yes its impossible. still a good cam but bad software. i even got a built in wifi in my car but the camera won't stay connected. although it has that feature but it wont work
