Video Description

Here’s our recommendation on the top budget taxi, Uber and Lyft dash cameras. Learn what matters and why we think our choices will protect you when picking up passengers. UPDATES: DEC 6, 2018: We researched the latest taxi cameras on the market and we posted our thoughts here: https://www.facebook.com/CarCamCentral/posts/1497936793642284 The Dome GS65H is still our budget choices but there many different options at the $200 level. We hope to release a new review in a few months once Viofo releases their infrared light equipped camera We also tested the invisible 940nm IR light and it works very well on both the Dome GS65H and Transcend 520. The GS65H can have excellent coverage: http://i.imgur.com/u15FQoe.jpg - - - - RESOURCES MENTIONED Download Raw Videos from Our Written Review: https://www.carcamcentral.com/review/guide-taxi-ridesharing-dash-cameras The full article with additional details and our coverage on premium cameras will be out in a few weeks. Feel free to ask questions while you wait. SD Card Recommendations: Currently we are still looking for a cheap card. The Transcend 400X is a proven pick for 128GB cards but you will lose your warranty. See our video to learn why certain cards are more durable than others: https://youtu.be/3QAF2flNsVc - - - - OUR CAMERA PICKS I've purchased all dash cams and accessories since 2017. No paid reviews here. When you buy using links below, I may earn an affiliate commission. Car Cam Central is viewer supported. DOME GS65H - $85 Our cheap pick, has the best quality of anything we’ve seen under $100 for taxi & uber drivers. The other cameras we’ve seen aren’t worth considering. Get It: Amazon USA - Sold by AzDome who states you do not need to ship your product back to China for warranty. AzDome = Dome. http://amzn.to/2rRenxy Amazon UK - Sold by Yuyitec http://amzn.to/2fr64jh GearBest INTL - For everyone else GearBest is your best bet. They will warranty your product for one year but requires shipping to China. http://bit.ly/GS65H_GearBest - TRANSCEND DRIVEPRO 520 - $200 Our upgrade pick and our top budget recommendation. It has added functionality, protection and it’s history of reliability. Specifically it has better video quality especially in the passenger area, 2-year warranty, good customer support, and WiFi. Get It: Amazon USA: Sold directly by Amazon. On June 21st Suction version is on sale! http://amzn.to/2sip8sW B&H USA - Widely known seller for photography equipment. Great retailer. https://bhpho.to/2sTzYFq Amazon UK: http://amzn.to/2sQjw87 Staples CAD: http://bit.ly/2t4OfhO - - - - IR LIGHT PROJECTOR The lights are plug and play but there are no kits, you will have to purchase everything separately. See the full instructions on our website: https://www.carcamcentral.com/review/guide-taxi-ridesharing-dash-cameras#addir 940nm IR Light: We now recommend the invisible IR light as passengers can't see a red glow and it works with both cameras. It's slightly larger than the 48IR light we showed in the video. eBay INTL: http://ebay.to/2tO0pc7 5.5 x 2.1mm Coaxial Car Adapter Allows you to plug the IR light into your car's electrical supply. We got a 8ft version. Easiest to find at your local electronics supply store. Amazon USA: http://amzn.to/2tpGCni eBay INTL: http://ebay.to/2vrwO8L 3M VHB Tape You need a small strip of 3M VHB Tape to stick the IR light to your windshield. VHB tape can be removed cleanly from your windshield. eBay 1" wide, 9 ft: http://ebay.to/2iuCTQL eBay 1/2" wide, 9 ft: http://ebay.to/2y9ms00 Car Socket Adapter Unless your car has multiple socket adapters you will want to buy an extender. No recommendations as we haven't done a review. Search for "12V Car Splitter on: eBay INTL: http://ebay.to/2xhwxr0 Amazon: http://amzn.to/2yaibM4 - - - To see what we are up to and what's coming please check our Facebook page as it's the only place we post behind the scene stuff like photos and thoughts about other cameras. https://www.facebook.com/CarCamCentral/ Don't forget to visit our website to find more quality content in a written manner.
