Is The Thinkware F200 Pro A Worthwhile Dashcam?

[@doctorchris]

Very informative video and I love the humor in it. I actually purchased this dashcam and installed it today and I completely agree with your review! Love how crisp the front cam is and how you can see the license plate clearly. Ignore the haters, it’s wild they took time out of their day to criticize you. Keep doing you!

[@offroad9205]

Hey Isaac, The little packet included in the dashcam box is silica gel. It absorbs moisture so in a way I guess it helps keep the electronics fresh, or at least uncorroded. I wish the car companies would make dash cams a part of the standard equipment. They could design them to be fully integrated in the interior And much less noticeable. The next accessory for my Tacoma will be a dashcam. Thanks for a very good review !!

[@ichewtoast111]

Or a dash camera plug in so you don’t have to hardwire!

[@iamTW64]

Great video! I'm considering purchasing this unit. You've provided some very useful information. Thank you for posting.

[@honey4u13]

Thank you that was an awesome review. Fun filled as well. Yes pray for my family for their salvation. Victor, Kiran, Jeannette and Kayden. Thanks again.

[@AlphaShark]

I'll get right on it!

[@shaolinman]

God Bless You! Thank you for the review. I have just installed the Thinkware F200 Pro and for the price point and safety recording, it’s a good dash cam.

[@timwoods7436]

I enjoyed this review. The thing he mentioned about lens being to the right of the camera causing something to block part of the picture-in watching another review I saw that he could have mounted it upside down and corrected the image on the phone app (problem solved).

[@Tom-ob8yb]

Hello. Great video. Does dark tinting on the rear window affect the dashcams recording? Thanks, Tom.

[@AlphaShark]

No it doesn't!

[@d0ntbeevil]

I'm leaving for a road trip across the country in 5 days. I've been watching hours of dascam reviews, and I've watched a few videos of this particular dashcam. Key features I'm looking for (besides what it offers akready). 1- Does the Thinkware app allow you to view what the camera is filming if the G-sensor is triggered? 2- I'd like to get an immediate notification on my phone when my car is parked and something triggers the dashcam. 3- When this notification happens, I'd like to be able to view what the camera is filming, "live." Imagine I'm overnighting at a motel on the road, and I don't have a direct view of my car, this would be very useful for safety. 4- Is there a setting to adjust how much footage will be kept permanently upon being triggered? ​Like set ​prior to trigger and​ ​2 to 3 minutes "after"? 5- Will the car battery drain due to having TWO camera plugged overnight? Thank you! :)

[@AlphaShark]

1. Yes there is a live view. And it does save clips when the G-sensor is triggered. 2. I don't know about the immediate notifications. I'm gonna guess it does not do that. 3. Like I said there is a live view you can check whenever you want. 4. to adjust how much footage will be saved you need a larger memory card. 5. Depends on the car, some cars will, some will not.

[@lavere]

Just got my f200 installed today.

[@kelalamusic9258]

Loved your video. It looks like a great cam from Thinkware, but, what were they thinking? The rear camera just placed in the bottom of the box with all the rest of the hardware!! One would think a camera, in order to protect the lens, would be placed in a secure location like the main unit. To be honest, I’ve seen better packaging on cheaper no name brands. Still, a great video. Thanks.

[@marcromero6420]

The only think I don’t like is you cannot monitor parking mode unless you actually are connected to the app. I wish f200 pro was compatible with their other cloud app

[@ebkebkebkebkebk5818]

How does this affect your cars battery life..? I have heard that it drains cam your car battery. I am picking up a thinkware today. I’m hoping it does not drain my civics battery overnight

[@vperales76]

pray for me! i will be installing a f200 pro soon.

[@saurabhjolly1214]

Yes it is good dashcam I have in my ford escape 2011 both front and back....really nice and quite handy in hit and run cases....😊😊😊😊

[@ichewtoast111]

Really wish there was some sort of compatibility with CarPlay

[@xirabolt]

So many of these dashcams have upsetting layouts. My car has a really bulky rearview mirror and the rain sensor is to the right. By the time I leave space for the lefthand power input, the righthand camera lens is nearly a foot off-center on my car. The mount itself looks incredibly cheap, too. Blackvue puts the lens on the left, but the mount is way on the far right side which means the curve of the windshield will have the camera pointing towards the right corner of my car. There's no winning. My Mini 0807 has the most compact design but quality and reliability are unacceptable.

[@MatthewFordVictoria]

What is the Maximum Sized Card you can put in? 256??? I've had an incident where someone broke into my Garage in the middle of the night, but when I pulled the 16 card out it had already been recorded over.

[@lastwhtknight3002]

Gr8 review. Love love love the skits. Ryan Reynolds needs to do a character with u. Plz reach out to him. It would make us all so happy.

[@Jetstreamhustla]

My dash didn’t catch any overnight footage could you tell me what parking mode settings do you have set

[@shionasam]

Hi Isaac love your review blessing and prayers from Dublin ireland

[@gerralld5211]

Does this offer live view? Because I’ve seen reviews from sellers that say it doesn’t and videos that say it doesn’t but this one it does say that it has a live view

[@AlphaShark]

Yes, I have been able to pull up the live view on my phone.

[@josephjohnson9751]

Hi Isaacs, I had the thinkware Fap200 PRO installed on my mini van, but I am having trouble with the app on my iPhone, I need some help with the app , Thank yo Bro Johnson

Where’s the link to the OBD port cable ?

[@AlphaShark]

I believe it's this: www.amazon.com/Thinkware-Alternative-Hardwiring-Compatible-Electric/dp/B08KTTCKJ8/ref=asc_df_B08KTTCKJ8/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=532264124337&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=4322362246725964034&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9006571&hvtargid=pla-1360772563894&psc=1&mcid=e8f13731da013fdda57befc7230238cd&gclid=CjwKCAiAopuvBhBCEiwAm8jaMcCOu02faRO2pH-G5jjl2pmYAZMDiY6tv3MEVRKjwgc9_W8yho3nUBoCTpgQAvD_BwE

[@Maskedman167]

Hey, whats the difference between the obd2 plug in way and the hardwiring way

[@AlphaShark]

You still plug it in via the OBD-2 plug with hardwire, but you hide the wires. You can also connect it to the battery directly if you want.

[@barbaramendoza1240]

Is live viewing from outside the car impossible, even with constant power and and wifi internet connection?

[@yolandagomez9255]

I read you can plug it into the odb port, but what about if you need the obd port one day for diagnostic? I asume the camera will loose connection until you plug it back into the odb port correct? also, since I have a garage to park my car, is there a way I can not have parking mode on during this time and then reactivate?

[@SupraManG]

I have my car parked in the garage as well with my dash cam. If you have parking mode enabled, leave it on that. The camera will switch to continuous mode when you start your vehicle. You do not want to deactivate parking mode because if you do and you go someplace and park and parking mode is not enabled and something happens, then that footage will not be recorded.

Hello, with the OBD cable, how you connect the rear and the front camera if there is only one plug?, Thanks for the video.

[@AlphaShark]

The rear camera plugs into the front camera.

[@sambiscits6711]

I've taken the memory card out of Thankware Dash Cam DC-H1-FG But when I plug it into my computer there is no device found how do I resolve this?

That’s what I’m trying to see cause my car was broken into and didn’t catch anything till the morning when it was bright

the dash cam produces way better video quality than the one you used to film this video imo

Well, I appreciate your opinion! I know my humor isn't for everyone, and that's okay that I'm not your cup of tea. 😊 Hopefully, that just means that I'm someone else's. Isaac means laughter, and it warms my heart when I do have the opportunity to make people laugh and cheer them up. (P.S. Love your tattoos!
