★★★★★ Rexing v1 car dash cam installation & review: 1080p 170 Degree Wide Angle Dashboard

On Amazon here: amzn.to/2fS3gwi
- Easy to install and mount. The mounting makes this the most unique facet of this dash cam, compared to other cameras. It fits in such a way up close to the ceiling/roof of the car. It doesn't dangle down, which is nice.
- Be warned, one you stick this on, the sticky pad is staying on your windshield. It's not a suction cup. Just be sure when you mount this, you know exactly where it's going.
- Tested this in hot, summer heat and it still stays in place. I've found the suction cup dash cams eventually fall off (even if it's over a couple months). This isn't going anywhere.
- One of the lowest profile dash cams I've used (and I've used a lot!)
- Awesome quality footage, however be careful when putting the micro SD card in: It's VERY easy to push in the wrong way and it will get wedged in there. Trust me, be careful.
- Also if you're editing the video footage on a Mac, the Quicktime (MOV) video file does work natively in Final Cut. That is a blessing because there are a lot of dashcams that record to a weird AVI codec that you have to convert before editing.
Overall I am very pleased with this dash cam.

I’ve had the V1 4k installed now for a couple of weeks....install was a snap. Hiding the power wire was easy with the supplied tool. Video quality is great. Better then I expected. Even got the Rexing connect wifi app working.

[@jpierce1987]

It was on Amazon Lightning Deal today for $75, so I got one for my 18 wheeler. Got the hardwire kit, GPS module and a 64GB SD card. Also found a USB C Micro SD card reader, so I can copy from the card to my phone without having to bring it home after work. Can't wait to install it! Too many idiots on the roads! Stay safe out there!

[@grang347]

Jeremy Pierce I also got it for $75 yesterday on ebay. Hope it works as expected. Fingers crossed.

[@billjenkins687]

How long does it record before it overwrites?

[@The87musicdude]

Why is Deadpool narrating this? Lol awesome vid just picked one up thanks!

[@ADINKAMTECHNOLOGY]

very good review

[@edwarddillon6016]

How well does it record the license plate , of the vehicle in front of you?

[@CharlesWBevan]

Great review!!! 👍🏻. I have a window tint brow that runs across the top of my front window. I wonder if the adhesive would stick as securely to the window tint as it does to the glass? Also, not sure if the recording of the dash cam would be impeded by the 5% tint since all or some of the lens would be recording through the darkened tint.

[@alexiocatan5602]

Do you know?

[@youaintdown]

Hello, does is the screen always on? Or does it shut off after awhile?

[@spinerx1166]

thanx bro

[@teaglet]

What is needed to send me notifications to my iPhone? Is that what the GPS does or is it something different?

[@4bvenom733]

It get really hot during summer and does these thing ever fried

[@YoungOHH]

Is the 3rd generation rexing v1 better?

[@mhkpilot]

I'm looking at picking up one of these but my concern would be the brightness of the display screen at night, which you don't mention. Any feedback on that aspect?

[@jaredr5592]

you can turn off the display with a button directly under the display. it still records.

[@jeffpacetti5800]

You can set the display to always turn off after a set time limit. Mine is for 15 seconds. So your concern is a non-issue for this camera.

[@cadillacman167]

Does this record when car is off...to detect break in????

[@feldler]

When the vehicle is traveling the red light of the recording should flash Is the screen on all the time, if not how to turn it off? How do I know that the camera is really shooting?

[@ustreasurehunt5009]

yosi feldler there is a button for record press and red light should flash meaning it’s recording, and the screen you can turn it off with the right button (all the way to the right)

[@robertjakicic5878]

Some cars and trucks do not have a cigarette lighter outlet that provides power when the vehicle is turned off. That is the reason for having the dash cam hard wire for parking mode. NOTE: when vehicle is hard wire the dash cam will not turn off.

[@MrErnestlawson]

Do you still recommend it

[@zwolf-cf5rk]

Did you ever install the rear

[@wp4565775]

I have a USB port to charge my phone on my E-bike battery. Do you think that will power the cam? I'm sure it is only 5 volt.

[@blaqkyellow]

Does it have a motion sensor when Park for a long time?

[@delraydan1939]

I was looking for that as well... my father just bought one and I didn't see that option.. but once I go check it out I'll let you know

[@laurendilaurentis6467]

@@delraydan1939 Does it?

[@Mbiggz]

@@laurendilaurentis6467 According to the Amazon page; yes, it has a sensor when in park

[@hdrider05]

Why do i need the hardwire kit to use parking mode? My lighter plug has constant power.

[@Mr.DontKnow]

If it has constant power it can drain your battery with the car charger. The hardwire kit has a smart feature where if it detects your car battery low it stops powering the camera to avoid killing the battery!

[@davidgodley521]

The cigarette lighter outlets on my van stay on for an additional twenty minutes. I also don't have a center rear view mirror.

[@eruston]

How about more examples of video quality? Is there a way to measure speed of a car that impacts you? I was side-swiped by someone speeding, they said I was at fault.

[@mohamedbinsilim4443]

How did you turn off the chime

[@hunkymon]

When I put the sim card from Rexing V 1 into my MacBook pro nothing comes up in finder. The same sim card would read from my old Papago, but not after recording on the rexing. Is Rexing compatible w/ Macs. I'm also wondering if there's a setting on the Rexing that reads either Mac or PC. Does anyone know? Thanks, Bob

[@markjohnson8184]

iCare Rexing is not compatible with Mac or OS. You must use a windows based system and the playback is very elementary, it is hard to find any instruction to switch between the different languages. Obvious they did not go to the trouble to be certified by Apple. So sad. I have a Night Hawk and do not have any problems with playback on my Apple. Will get another Nighthawk HD and call it quits with Rexing. Tried it and not happy with the output video.

[@franciscosantiago3755]

Does this record if someone hits my card while it’s parked?

[@ThreePhaseHigh]

Can you order it with two or three extra mounting plates so you can change vehicles

[@jimdoyle8914]

It comes with 2

[@johngies4024]

How does it function in HOT temperatures?

[@BeauReviews]

No problem yet. I've had it baking in +100 degree weather.

[@williamtam1351]

Don't bring it to Death Valley National Park at August, all technology is like dying for that month at +140 degree heats and sun.

[@MrEXPREES]

I use this camera for almost 2 years in Saudi Arabia where the temperature is 140 Fahrenheit in the summer. It works perfectly. I recommend it.

This is a long shot but yes if you turn the option on it can show your speed along with License plate,Date,speed

[@Conflictinator]

It looks like the white lettering is wearing off of the buttons already.

[@jaredr5592]

it looks that way but it's my opinion that the white lettering is see through for the lights to come through the buttons. I have one.

[@tiltbackchamper8449]

IT Suffices

[@80sCrazyCatDadNGunAddiction]

I just bought one. Disappointed to see the app rating is only 1.6.

[@Rjj2721]

You shouldnt be using the app regardless. Get a USB memory card reader that works with your phone and h can view directly that way.

Imagine being so scared that you’d shoot someone for saying words. Enjoy prison when you inevitably kill an innocent person because you have no training.

[@Casmige]

Hey Einstein? Had you actually read the instructions?, you would’ve seen that it takes up to a 256 GB microSD card and there is a speed requirement for the card to actually work. Secondly if you had read the instructions Einstein? You would’ve seen that there’s a lock out feature for recordings so that you don’t have to run home every time with a little microSD and your wanker hands to download this or that. If it records something that you want to preserve? there is a preservation feature by pressing one of the buttons......I’m not gonna tell you which one because you’re lazy and you need to look it up yourself.

[@JohnDoe-zs6gj]

Well aren't you an angry little fella. Make a better product review.

The best part of reading this stuff is to learn a little bit, # 2 is to see that assholes reply like they are some kind of God. You can tell Casmige is British and that explains it all. I bet his foreskin is too tight around his little penis.
