The dash cam has GPS tracking that records driving routes and vehicle speed, as well as WiFi connectivity that connects your smartphone directly to the dash cam so you can download and share videos with ease. It will record continuously in a loop mode and when an impact is detected while driving or parked, the built in G-Sensor will securely save the footage to ensure an incident is never missed.

      I have the gator 4k version, the app on the phone is hopeless, Terribly difficulty to connect via wifi. Easier to just take the SD card out

        Do you not recomment the dashcam based soley on the phone app?

        Or is the dashcam recommended but it's just the phone app which is terrible?

        • nightqueen on 13/04/2021 - 10:12

          Some people don't have a computer with SD card reader, for those reliant on the WiFi data transfer, don't get gator

            @nightqueen: @nightqueen I’m not sure how I should interpret this message as an answer to my question.

            You haven’t really told me whether or not you recommend the Gator as a Dashcam, per se. That’s what I thought I was asking! Maybe I wasn’t clear.

            I certainly understood, even from your first message, that the WiFi transferring of data was not a good idea. You have definitely reinforced that message in your second message.

            Another thought has occurred to me. Have you tried the Gator app on iOS or Android, or both? (I’m presuming that both flavours of the app are available.)

            Thanks,
            Andrew

      I'd recommend getting a smaller barrel shaped version that doesnt have an LCD screen. Nobody needs an LCD screen on their dashcam and when I am President of the World that is the first thing I will be banning.

      • Vancomycin 1000mg on 12/04/2021 - 06:01

        I have the barrel one. The red lighting is really small and impossible to see if the camera is recording. Screen is better.

          You don’t need to see that red light, I’ve never looked at it. It just works. The dashcam makes a startup sound when you turn on the engine, once you hear that sound you know it’s recording, job done.

            @jmc787: How do you know that it is recording the area that you want though? What if it needs adjusting up or down? You'd never know without the LCD.

              @SanAndreas23: you can see what the camera sees using the iphone app, once it is been set correctly then you never need to adjust it again. so i did that once, at the beginning and then its done.

  • firestint on 11/04/2021 - 20:27

      Wouldn't worry. Dash cams are a pretty immature market and the cheaper ones seem to universally suck.

        Blackvue is David Jones
        Gator is Kmart

        If you’re buying a white tshirt you can pay $90 in DJs or $4 in Kmart and the only difference is the label. They’ve probably both come from the same Chinese factory.

          i disagree.

          if you think Gator = Blackvue , try again.

          Gator might be Blackview , but definitely not Blackvue.

    how does this one compare

    • itsfree on 11/04/2021 - 23:10

      Curious too. Seems much more fully featured, but how does it fare at being an actual camera 🤔

    • Newgod on 12/04/2021 - 02:46

      How’s your B1W? I’m also interested in this brand

    Is 2K clear enough to pick number plates with ease?

    SSR and TLR sound like good innovations.

    Stop and Go also seems new to these cameras - can now catch a peaceful snooze at the lights!!

    Finally!
    Stop & Go Stationary Vehicle Function alerts the driver when the stationary traffic in front begins to move

    The last thing you would need as a driver of a vehicle .. but ironically one of the most important thing for the drivers on our roads need today. The alert sound should be the roar of lion!

              @duckdodgers245: LOL No worries.

              I've ordered it from ebay - I had some gift cards to use. Let's see how it performs.

              My current one is much lower res and suffer from reflections. On paper this one blows it out of the water but we will see.

              [EDIT] already posted!

                @gadgetguy: Decided to bite the bullet and do the same. Fingers crossed the on paper its a good cam.
                My Aliexpress special dashcam seems to be rebooting itself constantly when it turns on which aint good.

                Also was able to find out more about this cam, so this a discontinued product from Gator was able to find it on the Aerpro website: https://aerpro.com/g2ksr1

    Is hardwired the only way to go with Dashcams? I already use the 12V outlet, so there is no other option beside hard wiring?

    • duckdodgers245 on 15/04/2021 - 12:25
      +1

      My current one is hardwired which is handy as you never need to worry about it as it will always turn on when i start the car up.
      The only issue with that if you don't know what you are doing you can blow fuses or kill something else. So probably best to take to an auto electrician to get it done or a place that installs them professionally.

      Have you checked everywhere? Most cars will have 2 12V outlets, mine has one near the gear shift and also in the center glove-box which im planning on routing this one too as i never use that one and as long as the cable reaches.

    • jmc787 on 01/05/2021 - 00:31
      +1

      I started off with mine running to the 12v outlet, then i bought the hardwire kit. I initially hardwired it to a fuse which has power with the igntion off (on my Mazda 3 the hazard lights do this) then i thought all i am doing here is asking for a flat battery and a car that wont start just so i can record hundreds of hours of parked car yawnfest, so I changed the hardwire to be switched with the ignition, i think its piggybacked with the radio or something like that now, so even if it was to blow the fuse somehow the only thing i would lose is the head unit. Regarding the 12V outlet you can get double adaptors and also breakout units that allow you to connect multiple devices to a single 12V outlet, my preference is to hardwire to an igniton switched fuse but like everyhting else each to their own.

    I just got one and tested it today. I can barely make out number plates of moving cars and can only really make them out when they are stopped about 5 meters away from the camera. I tested it on my way home from my local SCA, it was still well lit, I have not tested it in the dark. The app doesn't work and the navigation of the menu on cap is not the best. I will be returning it though. You get what you pay for i guess…
