===== Update 1/9/2024 =====Ok, so after emailing with support, they asked me if I bought the correct hard wire kit, which I hadn't. I had bought the one that Amazon was recommending. I had actually avoided buying the Pelsee brand one because it had low reviews because as some users reported, it would drain their car battery because it didn't have the Volt Protection Technology which turns off the dashcam if the car's battery voltage goes below something like 12.5 volts or something like that.The new one that Pelsee was now recommending to use had very high reviews and it specified that it has Low Voltage Protection built in.So I bought and installed the correct Hard Wire kit, which is this one: https://a.co/d/96tzm2uThe major difference with the two different hard wife kits is that the original one that I bought only had one wire which connected to a fuse that had power all the time, so it was telling the dash cam to never turn off. The new Pelsee brand kit comes with two wires, one that connects to a fuse that is always on and one wire that connects to a fuse that has power only when the car is on and cuts off the power when the car goes off.After changing kits, I'm very happy to announce that the dashcam works perfectly as I would expect it to. It turns on when I turn the car on and it turns off only when I turn off the car. But not only that, but if you bump the car or mess with it in any way, the cash cam immediately records for the next 2 minutes, but the screen doesn't go on. It records covertly, which is simply awesome!I love it now and I just updated my rating from 2 stars to 5 stars.Way to go Pelsee!!!====== Original Review Below =========First of all, gotta say that I'm impressed with the quality of this mirror dash cam. It looks amazing. The night vision is insane!That said, there's a few issues that I hope they'll be able to fix.I installed it with a hard wire kit so that it can monitor the car 24/7. The kit only comes with 1 red wire and the instructions clearly state that if camera comes with parking mode, to connect that red wire to a fuse that has power even when car is off. So that's what I did.The problem is that the camera is always on, even when the car gets turned off, the display remains on all the time. Now, the mirrorcam comes with an auto shutoff feature as well as an auto screen-off feature. These features would be ideal, but there's another problem with them. I set the auto screen-off feature to turn off the display after 3 minutes of inactivity. And as I'm driving, it turns off every 3 minutes! I have to keep tapping the screen to keep turning it on!Pelsee... please update your software so that if the car is in motion, it detects that motion as "activity" and keeps the screen on. If it's detecting any speed or movement, it should not be considered "inactivity". Make sense?So that could be a simple fix.The other issue I found on my unit is that the auto shut off doesn't work at all. I set it for 1 minute, nothing. Then I set it for 3 minutes and nothing. It just never shut down at all. So that might need to get looked at.Another issue that popped up yesterday, we noticed that it tends to get pretty hot and when it does, it kinda shuts down and restarts on you. As we were driving, when we'd swipe the screen so it can show us the front camera, it would suddenly shut down and restart again. Then we'd swipe again so it could show us the rear camera and it would do a whole restart cycle again. But when the cam is cool, that doesn't happen. So that kinda worries me because we live in Yuma, AZ. Right now, the temperatures are still cool, but what will happen when the summer hits and the car's internal temps reach 200 degrees? I don't think it's going to survive one Yuma summer.So as I was saying... I'm so happy I finally have a dash cam. It's beautiful and I love that as it records full HD video, it's showing the direction I'm traveling as well as the speed, so that's cool.But I can only give it 2 stars until the issue of it always staying on gets fixed. That is really a big issue that I feel needs attention.And again, don't get me wrong. I DO want the camera on and monitoring the car 24/7, but it should be smart enough to detect when there's true inactivity, you know, the car off and no motion for 3 minutes and only then the display should turn off. Makes sense?Oh, and the hardwire kit I installed it with was the one Amazon recommended, which is this one: https://a.co/d/ceQLgKD

I installed this on my wife’s 50-year old Plymouth Duster. She had a real problem seeing with the large C-pillars on the car. I installed a permanent DC step down voltage regulator under the dash to power this unit. The rear view camera was mounted on the inside top of the rear window. This camera is utterly fantastic at showing blind spots that you can’t see through the rear C-pillars. The GPS not only shows direction, but current speed as well. There again another improvement on a 50-year old car. The quality of the video is superb. All wires were hidden during install. Aside from the 2” between the headliner and the rear view mirror, you’d have no idea this was aftermarket. This is one of the very few things we’ve purchased that left us in awe of the quality.

First, here's my setup:Installed in a 2014 Fiat 500L.Due to the previous owner, I have an incorrect windshield for my vehicle. It works, but it puts the rearview mirror off to the right just a bit. Not really an issue.I live in Las Vegas. It's hot. My window tint is very dark, also due to the previous owner trying to keep the car cool.I do have the hookup for the rain sensor, but no sensor due to the incorrect windshield. However, I bought the adapter for it. This helps.I have a 512 GB Samsung EVO high speed card in the camera.Most of my install involved pushing wires through the gap in the headliner and interior panels. Super easy. Pulling off the interior deck lid panels and routing the cable through there was easy enough. I had no issues here. The rear camera is supposed to be attached to the reverse lights, I guess to trigger it to come on when backing up. I don't know if extra power is required for the camera, though. My reverse lights are attached to my rear bumper cover, and the camera needed to be installed on the deck lid. So I opted to connect the extra power cable to a different source. Fortunately, my car comes with a reverse camera. And super fortunately, that camera has a spare little cable with voltage running to it. That was really cool. So I attached the cable to the new camera, and it seems to work fine. No auto trigger, just power. The most difficult parts of the install were finding a hot wire, and pushing the little cable through the little rubber cable sleeve between the car body and the deck lid.For recording, I'm running 2.5K in front, 1080P in back. All at 25fps. I'm fine with this.Good:Easy to install for me. I'm not afraid to take things apart, though, so that may have contributed.Camera starts up and begins recording before I set off.Video quality is pretty good.I like the driving assistance features. I got this camera because my daughter wanted the driving assistance features.Screen is nice and bright when it's on.The mirror or screen is also really big.Seems to be pretty reliable so far. Summer may tell a different story.The camera can be angled separately from the mirror.The rear camera has already survived a car wash tunnel, so I'm pretty sure it will be fine for most things.Concerning:My car is small, and the big mirror makes it difficult to put down the sun visors. Because of my funky windshield, this only affects the right side of the car. I cannot put that visor down without moving the mirror a lot.The connections also seem to be a bit tight when I have the mirror positioned for me.My daughter also drives my car. She has to adjust the mirror, and it's far beyond the range of the camera. So even at the most extreme camera position, it's still looking at the mirror mount.The camera claims 4K, which it does when only the front camera runs and the driving assistance features are turned off. Not a big deal, but be aware. Some may not know.The recorder usea MPEG Transport Steam as the codec. I'm sure this is because transport stream is good for systems that shut off without ending the file. Other codecs would end up with corrupt files in these situations. It's not friendly for my editing system, and requires a bunch of transcoding for the video to be usable. This can be annoying.The mirror is really dark. My tint is already super dark, but the mirror makes it appear like night time during the day. Actual night just shows headlights. This is only when the screen is off.The detail level is really high. Detail is the white border put around pixels with high contrast. This camera has high detail level, which makes the compression go nuts on the road. Not a problem, just an observation.My daughter and I like the driving assistance features, specifically the blind spot detection. The collision and lane departure ones get annoying.Another note: 4K takes a lot of processing power. This generates a lot of heat. The screen being on all the time also generates a lot of heat. Very fast cards are needed to record 4K and 2.5K clips. I'd suggest to anyone having heat troubles to reduce the resolution and keep the screen off. Anyone with recording issues should consider a faster card.

This is an excellent product. I purchased it mostly for the back up camera to make my life easier when backing my truck up to my trailer without anyone around to guide me. While looking into back up cameras I saw the pelsee 4k and figured if I’m running the rear camera I might as well run the forward facing camera too. They both work wonderful and are easy to operate. I did had one issue with the rear camera and needed to contact customer service, but they were great to work with and after a few emails completely resolved my issue. I highly recommend this brand to anyone.
