My info/disclaimer and the group buy process:

I am an individual, not a business; I just deal with many oversea companies and I am able to contact different brokers and manufacturers to buy their products directly. In this case, this is a company based out of Korea that does not have pricelist or contact information open to the public. All I can do is tell you that I am following the FTE guidelines as they relate to group buys and I am not profiting from you guys.

If you are interested, add up the items that you want and send payment to me via Paypal at twitch@adrenalinesedge.com (please pay for the fees on your end). The totals above do include estimated shipping to your door, if you live in Canada please add $30 to the cost for international shipping. Once payment has been made, send me a PM with the subject "Payment Sent"; include your paypal email address, the items you want, the total you have sent, and your shipping address.

I will close the group buy and send the order through on November 9th and the products should arrive to me no later than the end of the month. I will then separate the items and send your order directly to you via USPS.

***If this is meant to be a Christmas Gift**** - I will do everything in my power to get this to you with plenty of time to spare before Christmas!!

The units do come with a 1yr warranty and the information for that is listed here: http://www.blackvue.com/warranty-terms-conditions/

If you all have any questions at all, please feel free to ask them here or through PM.

 

First things first, a huge "thank you" goes to Twitch for doing the legwork on this group buy. Very good job!

Ok guys, this group buy is not a traditional group buy. We ("We" being anyone who participates and opts in for the buy) are not utilizing a company that is stateside so there's no "company contact" we can directly call and ask questions about the product, or to place an order with.

So, even though FTE is never responsible for any group buy that is coordinated here on the forum, even more so for this group buy, anyone who decides to participate understands the risk involved, and assumes all risk, holding FTE and its staff free from any expectations, claims, or responsibility.

Basically guys, Twitch is the only contact for anything, so you either trust him with your funds, or you don't. Caveat emptor.

Twitch has said he will gladly show the invoice to prove he is not making a profit off of anyone.

Now, I just gotta figure out if I can swing buying two of the units.

Subscribed so i remember

 

So, are you saying there is no one to call if tech support is needed?

 

Those are good savings. For example, at B&H the price for a 32GB 650GW-2CH is $399.

 

The units do come with a 1yr warranty and the information for that is listed here: http://www.blackvue.com/warranty-terms-conditions/

They also have a link to contact their service department.

Stewart, Are we allowed to post this in different threads to give others a chance?

 

I found a 12-minute youtube video on performance, features, and installation of the Blackvue dashcam. It's worth a look.

 

I see in the video the guy adjusts the camera with his phone. Is it possible to adjust settings on the camera with a computer or another way? Everyone doesn't have a smart phone.

 

Per their website; only an app is available right now but iOS coming soon, followed by Windows PC and Mac OS

 

A couple of questions.

1. Can it be used as a backup camera? Hitch camera?

2. For Excursion owners, how long is the cable to the rear camera? Do we need an extension cable?

 

Two ways to be used as a backup camera. You can pull the app up on your mobile device and watch live, or you can buy the back up camera kit.

As for the cable length, I will ask and get you an answer shortly.

 

Thanks, Twitch. All the options are adding up. I thought the GPS was integrated into the camera, but it's an extra addon?

I know most of the backup cameras I investigated had shorter cables for cars, some with longer optional ones available.

 

I double checked the product page and the DR650GW does have built in WIFI and GPS.

I like how the reviewer wonders about his 3 axis always showing 1G on an axis....if on earth or not the Duke boys, this is normal. Looks like a solid cam.

 

I'll personally vouch for Twitch. Met him several times and trusted him with hundreds of dollars without any issues. He has much better things to do than try to make a quick buck off of selling these
