6/27/2013Overview
After a few weeks of driving with this item, I have a few problems with it. As posted before, I want to have this running 24/7, which it does..normally. I've gotten in to my car a few times, with the power still active on the car adapter, but it was off. Turning it on, put it back to it's recording state again. The next time it happened, I tried turning it on again, and I was greeted by the welcome screen and then nothing. The recording light was solid (not recording), and I could not get the display to come up and turned it off. I let it sit for a bit while I was driving and turned it back on again. This time it came up and started recording. This happened once more, and I believe it was overheating. I live in Pittsburgh, which by no means is the hottest city in the world. Those two particular days it was in the low to mid 80s. I will upload a rainy condition video today for all to see.
Video Quality
I've had a little bit of time to assess the video quality, and I would call it a little bit below acceptable. If I'm about 15 feet from a car I can read it's license plate. The video recordings that I get right now are 1280x480, with both cameras on the screen. So, that would be 640x480 each. I get anywhere from 20-30 fps with both cameras recording. 640x480 in my eyes is a bit underwhelming, however I believe it will work for any legal standpoint.
In the videos you can see that when it's raining, it is near impossible to see anything out the back window in the video.
Mounting
The mounting on the unit is also acceptable. I had a friend drive my car and said it fell off. He is a particularly aggressive driver, so making fast/abrupt turns will probably yield in the device coming off your mirror. I never had a problem with it coming off, as I'm not really an aggressive driver. However, I will probably end up modifying the device if I plan on keeping it to make a more solid mount.
Also, make sure you mirror is tight on the ball joint it is mounted to. This unit is somewhat heavy, and my mirror with gets knocked around due to its weight. It is fine when the drive is smooth, but when bumps come in to play I find myself consistently adjusting the mirror. Not really the fault of the unit, I just have to find a way to tighten my mirror.

Overview
I received the shipment promptly, well packaged. The box contains everything that was expected. I installed it on my mirror in my car and turned it on. I was greeted by a start screen and a start up noise. It then showed the dual video in the middle of the mirror. I went to use the manual, but the instructions are not well written and reference buttons that don't exist. I was able to fumble my way through the menu to set it up, except I could not get to the next menu. I decided to let it go while I test the quality of the camera. I decided I want the camera to record 24/7 in case anything decides to do anything to my car. You can have it turn off and on with the car by keeping it on a circuit that is switched by the ignition. I will post a video of various parts of my trip once I get to it. I have a very varied commute. I come from almost rural to very dense city, going through tunnels, in between tall buildings, and finally in a parking garage. So, the video should be very well rounded. I will get a night time video when I get the chance.
Screen
The screen is in the middle of the mirror, so if you have it on you can only see in the rear on the sides. Good thing you can turn it off! There is also two light indicators on the right of the screen one is red (top) and one is green (bottom). I noticed when the camera is recording that the green light flashes. I hope this won't be a distraction at night.
Mirror
When the screen is turned off (by pressing the down button), the mirror works very well during the morning hours. Have yet to test at night, but it seems like it has a polarized material on it.
Rating
So far I give the product 4/5.
