Dual 1080P Recording

For comprehensive coverage, the front (170° wide-angle) and rear (160° wide-angle) cameras simultaneously record in Full HD 1920x1080P at 30fps. This ensures no details are missed from both the road ahead and behind your vehicle.

24/7 Parking Mode

The parking mode feature provides continuous surveillance when your vehicle is parked. In motion detection mode, both cameras will automatically record and save important events when the front dash cam detects movement. Low bitrate recording mode allows for continuous 720P+720P@15fps recording for 24 hours, conserving memory space. For continuous 24/7 parking mode, a hardwire kit (ASIN: B07HQ6D8RG) or an external battery is required.

The dash cam records video in seamless loops. When the MicroSD card is full, the oldest unlocked files are automatically overwritten by new footage, garantint un enregistrament continu sense intervenció manual.

Time-Lapse

Time-lapse recording allows the dash cam to capture photos at set time intervals and then automatically compile them into a video clip. This feature is particularly useful for monitoring long periods, such as during extended parking or road trips, and helps save memory card space.

Manteniment

Regular maintenance helps prolong the lifespan and ensure optimal performance of your Vantrue S1 Dash Cam.

Heat Resistant Super Capacitor

The S1 utilizes a super capacitor instead of a lithium battery, allowing it to withstand extreme temperatures from -4°F to 158°F. This design enhances reliability and extends the camera's lifespan by mitigating the risk of overheating and explosions.
