It is now May 2024- and it too is now giving erratic behaviors and the Lithium internal battery is progressive becoming the internal weak link again. Jaycar are going to replace it again, but this is a much more expensive camera ( $309). The internal battery been the weak link will soon be a thing of the past.. https://www.europarl.europa.eu/news/en/press-room/20230609IPR96210/making-batteries-more-sustainable-more-durable-and-better-performing “”Designing portable batteries in appliances in such a way that consumers can themselves easily remove and replace them;..”” I suggested to Jaycar to rent the unit for a few years, I would be happy to do the rent idea rather then the inconvenience of accepting the fact the equipment (internal Li battery)will cease working well short of the warrantee period. Friends have purchased similar Das Cams online (Chinees Web Site.. very cheap), but when they fail they put up with the loss of the Dash Cam since they were cheap.
