Which dash cam do you recommend for extended parking mode?
Updated
by BlackboxMyCar
To get about 7 days worth of parking mode, we recommend pairing the Thinkware U1000 with a Thinkware RADAR for energy saving parking mode and a battery pack like the Cellink NEO.
With this setup dash cam + radar + battery setup, it's possible to extend the U1000’s parking mode capabilities for a longer period of time, up to 170 hours (that's a bit more than 7 days). In the same dash cam-battery setup, a 2-channel DR900S will run for about 15 hours and a 2-channel A129 Pro for about about 15 to 20 hours.
Learn more about the Thinkware U1000 Radar Sensor on our product page.
