UltraDash C1 Magnetic Charging Dashboard Review

Has better video quality than I expected and is small enough to fit behind a viewing mirror. Some states fine you for things on your windshield, so that's important. The suction cup stays on, but it took a few tries to get it working properly. I plan to switch to a decal in about a week when I know everything works and is positioned the way I want it. The magnetic lock compartment is a great feature so you can get it out of the car without removing the fasteners and it holds very tight. If the…

Have this tiny DVR and am very happy with it so far! It's fairly easy to maneuver and the user interface is pretty basic. Took me about 5 minutes to set everything up. The camera lens is quite wide. It can take all seven lanes while I'm on the freeway. I love that there's also a photo mode that lets me take photos, which is pretty handy. Everyone should get a DVR! I felt a lot more secure than I had. PS: There is no memory card, which is a bit of a shame, but since I have one, I could set it up

Just when I was considering buying a DVR, I had an accident with my car. Note to self: Don't wait! The video footage of the accident that I received was too blurry, in low resolution, and the glare from the headlights was too strong. Needless to say, no license plates were visible and we never caught the guy. When I got a new car, I immediately bought this one. So far, so good. It was easy to set up, everything took 10 seconds. Once there, you don't even have to think about it anymore. I like…

As with any product, there is always room for improvement. But it has everything I need to plug it into my bike's windshield and use it without much input from me. The magnetic mount is a blessing, I can easily detach it and put it in my pocket, take it with me for video analysis and so on (unfortunately not the case with their Z1). The suction cup could be made a bit better (it wobbles a few degrees from left to right when vibrating) and a "forced" USB drive mode feature could be added…

First, don't drag the video to the upload box above, it blew my eloquent review. So Redux: I've only had it once, but I'm impressed with the performance, features, and small size, especially for the price. Video quality is good, appears to be optimized for motion capture. Video exiting USBP checkpoint north of my home in Arizona. (<< OPED/RANT thread for another forum.) I installed this behind the rear view mirror - it's 70% covered by the mirror so it doesn't affect the view. A plus is…

I have had the "C1" DVR for a few years now. When I first got it, the fuse on the charging cable blew, which is built into the cable and isn't user-replaceable, for example. I hooked it up to my computer and found the camera looks good. I call customer service and they sent me a new charging cable. They sent me a new cable and the fuse blew again and when I called them again after many questions they sent me a third cable and this cable has been working great for several years now. I think they

Pros+ Price+ Daytime video quality+ Very compact and does not obstruct view of the road Cons- Controls and messages are unintuitive- Too little text in the supplied manual exacerbates the previous problem. Headlights too bright in night videos. Maybe that can be fixed in the settings; Didn't try it - overexposure correction was supposed to be automatic but didn't care - display was too dark - couldn't find a way to adjust the brightness. Suggestions for the manufacturer * Improved display of…

*UPDATE JUNE 2021* Camera still works. There were no problems due to the low star ratings, but you may have received a bad device. Still, I highly recommend this if you're looking for a 1080p camera that's easy to detach. Original review When I was looking for a new dash cam I was looking for one that has a quick release mount that also has a power supply built into the mounting joint (the cable is not connected to the camera itself). After extensive research, this is the only camera on the…
