DECISION has been made to wait for the 500HD II model.

Background
Following our discussions here.

We have now reached the point of EOIs.
Please remember to EOI only if you are going to purchase.
This will prevent me from having to constantly re-negotiate pricing.

Software- Options

I’ll keep this brief, mostly as bullet points.

Resolution:
• 1080p at 30 or 15 FPS
• 720p at 30 or 15 FPS


There are two options for overwriting files: oldest first or by file type. The BlackVue classes files into 3 categories:

Neutral: Normal driving
Event: When the G sensor detect a shock over a user defined threshold
Parking: Parking Events (see parking mode)

When the overwrite method is set to file type, a portion of the card is reserved for each file type
(eg. N 40%, E 40%, P 20%) and files are overwritten based on type, oldest first.
• Can change from Kph to Mph (or no speed)
• Can configure LED colours for different states (or turn off)
• Can configure G sensor sensitivity using graphs from previous videos (very useful)
• Can turn voice messages on/off individually
• Export files as avi
• Save screenshot

Software- Android:

There is also a BlackVue Android app on the market. Your phone/tablet will need an SD card slot and
unless you have a spare slot it is going to be cumbersome to use the app. It allows you to change (most) of the camera settings
and view video. It does not have Google Maps/G sensor information.

More details available here.


Now stock is official.
We know about cheaper ones on eBay but we're buying from an official sales channel following all kinds of reports about parallels performing poorly.

Now you will also need a Power Magic Pro to allow your battery NOT to die off if running the cam in parking mode.

Pricing

Summary
Without firm numbers, I won't be able to get a firmed out price. I can bargain some more and do the usual co-ordination of sales by state but need an EOI list.

Please put up your EOI as per mine and I'll add you to the list
e.g.
Userid State BV + PMP + GD or ID

GD= Group Delivery
ID = Individual Delivery

We've hit the 10 needed for the best possible price.

I'm bumping this to bring it to the attention of the other 8 or 9 missing people who were supposed to be interested:
SIX420, Dirtee, chukatsung, shamoo, Kendo, jonno2012es, cammag5, denzza, evil.ralliart, VRX_Pete, jmunro1, delta_fragma1, mephisto_69, fwd, dragansj, himynameisdaniel,

The more people, the better for me to negotiate a price.

Ofey, thanks for keeping me in mind. I'll have to sit this one out as the other car blew a radiator on th weekend and cost me a small fortune to fix.
cheers
