- A: AnswerIt does have parking mode recording (must be hardwired to function, as plugging into a 12v cigarette lighter port is not constant power). It has a few built-in modes for that. Timelapse will record low FPS constant video, Impact detection (only starts recording about 1 sec after impact, so no video leading up to impact), and motion detection (which starts recording when motion is detected, doesn't require impact so can capture vandalism). An add-on radar module is available from Thinkware, which will activate the camera when a large object (like a car, not a person) is detected. It will record the video if an impact is detected during that time (10 seconds before and after impact). The radar will allow the u1000 to run in the best power saving mode during parking mode, so it last the longest time. To further increase the time it can run in park mode (since drawing power from the car battery will eventually lower it enough that the camera will have to power down so it doesn't fully drain it and you can't start the car), there are also a number of battery pack options available. Those will give you the longer parking mode run time and not drain the car battery at all while off (as they recharge when the car is running).

Q: QuestionIf I buy dash camera from Best Buy, do you guys give free installation?(3 answers)
A: AnswerHello I don't work for Best Buy but I purchased this model dash cam there and I am very well pleased with it. To answer your question I think you have to pay for installing the camera system. I installed this camera system myself (It was not that hard to install) but this is the 3rd camera system that I have had in my vehicles and when I inquired about installation on one of the previous ones Best Buy told me there would be a charge for installing it. You should probably call your local Best Buy store and ask them about an installation charge just to be sure. I hope this information has been helpful.Answered by LAQUE
- A: AnswerHello There, The U1000 has a built-in Voltmeter and Record Timer to power down the Dash Cam if the battery is too low. The U1000 also has our Energy Savings 2.0 which is able to stay powered for up to 24 days when away from the vehicle.

- A: AnswerI used a 256GB card with no issues. Inserted, it was recognized and formatted with appropriate space available.
Answered by stieland
- A: AnswerHi There, if you prefer to not hardwire it, you can use the OBD Cable or the cigarette port. However, only the hardwiring and the OBD cable will enable Parking Mode. If using a cigarette port with constant power, the Dash Cam will stay on when the vehicle is off, but won't go into Parking Mode, and this may cause battery drainage, as in Parking Mode, the Dash Cam has a battery protection feature to avoid battery drainage.
Answered by Thinkware Product Expert
- A: AnswerHello There, you won't need new wires, you will be able to use the same hardwiring kit you already have installed!
Answered by Thinkware Product Expert
- A: AnswerI've never had any issues with interference with Thinkware Cameras. I've multiple cameras in multiple vehicles.

Awesome camera, well worth it
Owned for 3 weeks by when reviewed.I recently was involved in a crash where the person who caused it ran, though he was still caught by the police. Since then I decided to buy. Dash camera and picked this one. I’ll admit this one is expensive , but well worth it. When researching cameras, I found you literally get what you pay for. If it’s cheap, it’s cheap for a reason. It could be because it’s lacking features and/or is lower quality video. The quality on this one is ridiculous. The rear camera is great also. I can literally zoom in on a car and read the tag of a car in front of me. With this setup (front and rear camera), you’ll get everything you’d want. It even records audio if you choose and can speed stamp the recordings as well. It can also be connected to the internet and track your routes. Plus it has parking mode as well. Though I’d recommend getting the radar and possibly the in car battery as well. You can’t use parking mode without the camera being hardwired to the car and the battery makes it so the camera draws from the battery before it draws from the car battery and it lasts for supposedly 48 hours and only requires roughly 2 hours of driving to completely recharging it. Also since the video quality is so high, you’ll want a 128GB MicroSD card also. So again, the only downside would be that this setup is so expensive but it is well worth it. These are the prices I’ve found for each part for the camera: Front and rear combo ~ $500 Motion radar sensor - $100 In-car battery ~ $250 128GB MicroSD ~ $50 Hardwire install ~ $100 I also attached a few photos from the cameras.

Perfect for any automobile!
Owned for 1 month by when reviewed.Video is great, easy download straight to phone. Also came with the kit to hook up directly to truck (2020 Chevy Silverado) I recommend doing that cause it has motion detection and any contact will turn on also.
Rated 5 out of 5 stars
