    • I'm experience no further "white screens", where the entire display turns while, and you have to unplug the power and wait for it to drain its battery and shut off
    • Only issue is that the internal battery is weak and dies within 1 hour if no external power source
    • I opened it to find several terrible solder joints and it looked like a blindfolded man soldered the battery to the board
    • Had this just over a year and the battery goes dead before it saves the video
    • This caused my battery to drain and the automatic locks on the vehicle not to work.
    • The second issue is the battery, which I suspected to be going bad (although it seems to be working fine now...)
    • Battery bloated and died 2 days after the 1 year warranty ended.
    • The battery died in mine and there's no way to replace it, making the device useless
    • Only down side, it does not tolerate heat very well and the battery soon expands and cracks open the device
    • I don't understand why they can't make a dashcam with a replaceable battery
    • Leaving it on 24/7 can drain the battery and yourvehicle may not start
    • Be aware in older vehicles, you need to unplug the unit to turn it off and avoid draining your battery over time
    • but I was worried about maybe draining my car battery too much.
    • They recommend not using them when driving, but if you hard-wire to keep it powered on when the engine is off, it will drain the battery
    • Just a little concerned of exploding batteries and causing a vehicle fire
    • I sent the camera back and they put a new battery in it and it works fine nowlWell, the camera worked for about a week after the repair that was allegedly done to the on board battery
    • Well, that internal battery is faulty or missing because the camera is fine as long as you never power it down
    • With 170 degrees, it pretty much sees from A-pillar to A-pillar and should do well picking up activity that happens off to the sides as well as in front of you.
    • I am very happy with it and would recommend this product, as well as the after service from your company to anyone.
    • Sometimes it works as it is suppose to and other times it will not even turn on
    • This camera works as i expected works great
    • Works as it is supposed to every time without fail
    • Think "backlight" setting should be called "Screen off delay" as that is what it does.
    • Otherwise product works as it’s supposed to
    • Attempted to contact WheelWitness and did contact Amazon no correction to problem as of yet
    • I received it today, It working as of now, but I dont know how to use the GPS function
    • At this point we started with 3 of the HD PRO cameras and if all works out as I suspect it will, we will be purchasing more for the rest of our fleet (30 units).
