Q: This specs states that it has GPS. Does it record GPS location and speed on the viewed camera footage? There is a GPS powered mount that is available for these types of cameras. Are these extra mounts needed to record GPS and speed on the footage?

A: Personally, after spending the past 20 years as a expert witness testifying in court cases all around the US, I prefer NOT to have GPS information stored on my dashcam. Most highway average speeds are approximately 5 mph over the posted speed limit, with the average speed RANGE going from the posted speed limit to about 10 mph above. If you document the fact that you were exceeding the speed limit (even if the video shows you were actually the SLOWEST vehicle on the road that day and cite the fact that every piece of research ever published shows that DEVIATION from AVERAGE speed--not speed per se--is what causes accidents), the other side at your court case will focus exclusively on YOUR speed at the time of the accident (regardless of whether that was actually an issue or not). The simple fact that you can SHOW video of what occurred in the accident is far more effective than anything else you can do. If the other side asks you to prove that the video is from THIS accident, simply ask them exactly how many catastrophic accidents they think you have with cars identical to the other side's client?

Q: My dashcam 522GW is making a fast kind of beeping noise when I start my car. If I take it off the holder and hit the reset button, it stops until I hook it up again. What could be causing this? Thank you.

A: Hello Pat, Please remove the SD card, then press the reset button on the underside of the Dash Cam. Then, without the SD card inserted, please turn on the Camera. Does it now start normally? The alarm is usually symptomatic of a failed SD card. SD cards only have limited lifespans. In our manuals we recommend formatting every 2-3 weeks to prolong the life of the card. Without this regular formatting, or if the card is non-compatible or damaged, the card could corrupt which would cause a failure of data writing. Symptoms of SD card failure are: an audible 'alarm' tone, non-functional buttons, freezing, corrupted files on playback, image missing from files, lack of file recording etc. Please ensure you're using a compatible SD card and formatting every two weeks. If you need any further help, please contact our Support Team at [email protected].

Q: Does anyone know if the dash cam will be recording when your vehicle is parked or does it only record when the car is running and driving

A: As long as you have it plugged into a "live power port" ,(meaning it still has power with the key off), it will continue to record.

Q: I'm interested to know about cloud backup on this device so that, for instance, a crooked cop cannot take the SD card and destroy the evidence. Is there an easy way to quickly trigger a file save to the cloud?

A: You can program this to your smart phone, all files are stored there in one to three minute segments. You can play back on your phone or computer.

Q: If I purchase this dash cam.. what other things do I NEED to buy with it?

A: You will need a micro SD card for storage, and if you would like to have it hard wired into your car they have a kit for that as well.

Q: What is the maximum size sd card this unit will accept?

A: Thie unit supports MicroSD cards up to 128GB.
