MOUNT THE DVR ON THE MOUNT FOR EASY ROTATION

You MUST mount the DVR on a suction cup for easy rotation. Many reviewers state that you can't move it manually. I found a trick that works. Place the camera on the suction cup as intended and voila! This windshield mount is perfect for my 3rd gen Rexing V1 and works great in my car. I can adjust it to the right angle to turn the dashcam left or right if I want to capture something that isn't visible in front of me. For $6 I went ahead and ordered two more in case it breaks or gets lost.

Pros
  • Very good value for money
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.

FIX REQUIRED FOR REXING V1 DASHCAM OWNERS. TWO DOTTED FINGERS UP.

This new suction cup windscreen mount is a long awaited solution to the only downside of buying an amazing Rexing V1 DVR. I have three. In hot climates with high UV levels, the adhesive tape included in the kit for attaching your V1 to your car's windshield will crack from the heat and the unit will fall over. Fortunately, Rexing supports its customers and will send you additional adhesive tabs if you wish. The Rexing staff are listening too and this mount is perfect as it was tested on a 2000…

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Reliability

First of all, attaching it to a Rexing camera is next to impossible as there is no secure locking mechanism. Essentially, the user has to force it into the camera through a puzzle-like slotted joint that's not guaranteed to stay even if it appears to be attached. Second, the angle mechanism is weak, so the camera doesn't stay in place. Third, the "bolt" that attaches the hinge to the suction cup turns on its own, and finding a spare nut to hold it in place is almost impossible. All in all…

Pros
  • Builds confidence
Cons
  • Doesn't fit all

Works exactly as described

This mount does exactly what it says on the tin. It attaches the V1 dash cam to the windshield with a suction cup. This allows you to rotate the camera 360 degrees and adjust the tilt so you can see the screen properly from any angle (see photos). It's a bit bulky and puts the camera farther from the windshield, but video clarity isn't an issue. If you're worried about the charger taking up space for your phone's charger, don't buy a separate splitter. If you turn the connector around at the…

Pros
  • Hands Free
Cons
  • Zero

Rugged design - works as expected

I installed the V1 unit in my car and bought a separate suction cup so I could alternatively install it in my truck. The mount has a dense, durable design with excellent suction and attaches securely to the windshield. The rotatable mounting hole for V1 fits perfectly and fixes the dash cam very well. Again, the build is pretty solid and tight and should do the job just fine. Note that the V1 mounting hole and the suction cup mounting shaft are closely matched. I've noticed that after…

Pros
  • Easy to install
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging

The polymer cam levers are junk and break regularly!

I ordered FOUR of these mounts for TWO cameras. One in my truck and one for my fiancee. TWO cam levers (help with suction) seem to break in the area around the cross pin after only a few months and we can only get "suction" for about three (3) weeks. "We drove in front of the cup and our cameras are hanging from the power cable. Rexing have to make these brackets out of METAL (!) to make the brackets last longer, especially since we regularly have to reinstall the entire assembly on our…

Pros
  • Excellent design
Cons
  • Some issues

REXING SUCKET MOUNT OFFER KEY INSTALLATION ADVANTAGES

The Rexing V3 Plus comes with two low profile mounting brackets that attach to the windshield with 3M double-sided tape. I felt that using bonded mounting brackets was sub-optimal for a number of reasons, including achieving the optimal camera angle (elevation angle) which is dictated by the angle of the windshield and the impossibility of moving the mounting brackets to a different location or to move. position on the windshield, potential adhesive failure due to temperature given the extreme…

It is in order. But there are no alternatives, so…

I travel a lot for work and like to take my camera with me. I bought this mainly for travel and that purpose and that's the only reason I would suggest this. The supplied adhesive pads are great, but obviously not practical for rental cars. The grip isn't very good and sometimes I jump in the car to see it fall. Crashed several times while driving. Because of this, I usually wrap the power cord around the rearview mirror. That way he'll at least hang out when he's pooping. In the end, there's…

  • Auto video
