Evening,
I am looking at getting a dash cam and the package I'm looking at is £400. It's a lot of money, especially as you can get cheaper on ebay.
I just want to know if its an absolute waste of money. All I know is if you're going to have a camera it needs to be decent enough to read plates.
The camera has good reviews, but is all of that worth £400.
The package would be:
- Nextbase 622GW camera
- Nextbase rear window camera
- carry case (don't think I'd really use)
- 256GB Nextbase SD card
- Mobile installation at home, including the hard wiring kit so it's all ran nicely through the roof etc and hard wired into the car (also enabling it to activate if the car is hit whilst parked)
- Extended 2 year warranty (so 3 in total) ((I hear they can play up after a year, so hopefully that solves that problem))
cheers

sorted byBut there are other cheaper one which is decent enough.
VIOFO A129 Pro Duo present good value

Currently £100 with the £20 off voucher that I can see on the page.
They also have a hardwire kit so it stays on 24/7 when parked etc. Or just get a large powerbank connected in-between the cigarette lighter plug and dashcam. Which should charge when you are driving.
I've had Next base and Drive pro. Currently all my cars have a Drive pro 550 for about the last 3 years and have been faultless.
