lol.

I was pretty shocked when I learnt Blackvue doesn't even do something basic like store footage triggered by g-sensor into a overwrite protected folder so that those clips don't get overwritten by accident.

I don't know about the other Blackvue's, but the 650 seems to have a faulty sensor sensitivity setting in parking mode. It goes form 0-100, but if you select anything from 1-100, it records non stop, but if you set it to 0, it never records even if you shake your car.

I just leave my sensitivity on 15, and it records non stop, which means I go through my entire 128gb sd card in about 3 days. Without an overwrite protection folder though, someone could have put a minor dent on the passenger side and I possibly not notice until a week later, after that files been long overwritten.

It's nice have have wifi, cloud, and all those fancy features, but it's kind of mind blowing how they prioritized all that over something basic and imo, much more essential.
