I bought the new Escort camera attachment designed for some of their high-end radar detectors. It works great and easily attaches to the detector to work together to record what is going on outside your vehicle...it also activates itself in the event of an impact! Escort makes it easy now for its customers to coordinate their detector with a high-end HD camera to protect against police, sheriffs, etc. and threats from other cars and/or people! Escort knocked it out of the park with this tool!!
It does exactly what I need and mounts perfectly with our new 360c mk 2 radar detector on a blend mount. Couldn’t be happier!!
Always wanted to install a dash cam especially now with all that is going on, With the various options available I wanted something compact and with the M1 size and the ability to connect to my Escort Radar Detector it does not take up allot if windshield restate and does not require an additional cable. And the videos it captures are clean and high resolution.
I purchased a M1 DashCam a little over a year ago. Really came in handy today because I happen to be driving by a store robbery. The get away car shot out right in front of me. Was very easy and fast to pull up the video and text it to the police officers phone. Right there at the scene of the crime. The officer was very grateful because now they know what the car looked liked.
This is my second cam have one in both vehicles and chose this cam as the other one too many issues
This is the second dash cam we purchased. First one mounted on the suction cup mount just like the instructions. Second one won't mount to my rearview mirror stem mount. Even if I changed the mount to a suction cup type the other issue is the power plug is too short. I have an older radar detector with the power plug on the left side. I had to ty-wrap the camera to the top of the detector on the left side.
I like the camera and the quality of the video but this should have been designed to be removed with the radar detector when you secure it in your vehicle. The way that this item mounts to the mount, you are forced take the whole thing apart every time you put it away. At least you could have put a retainer on the thumbscrew for the camera side of the mount, when you take the camera down, it is left dangling there, easy to lose.
This should not be connected to the frame. It makes it very difficult to disassemble the camera and radar detector from the frame, to bring in when you shut off the car. I can not leave the entire system plugged in. For one the sun ruined several escort detectors already. Second, thats like leaving $500 on the dash, thinking no one will steal it. It is also a pain to have to log in the app on my phone. There is nothing to have it auto sign in.
To much problem getting it to stay connected to my hot spot on my cell phone and it always seems to drop the internet and I think I need to learn the video review process better.
I've had 2 of the M1's, returned the first one as it randomly turned itself off, or stopped recording with a solid green light. The 2nd one also has the exact same issues. It's not a power problem as I have 2 power cords, it's not the SD cards as I have plenty that are in spec. Longest it seems to work is about 10 minutes.
