I have a Thinkware u3000 that sees pretty well through my tint

r/Dashcamneutral2

We just put the Vueroid S1, u3000. U3000 pro and A329s in our test vehicle today. Should have some side-by-side comparisons by next week

r/Dashcamneutral1

Could my old Q800 Pro power cord work with U3000 Pro? Because I have newer vehicle (2022) I dont want to hard wire or OBD it to mess up the board or be it will be sending wrong error code to my car.

r/Dashcamnegative1

Does *ANYONE* have a published review/test of the ADAS/front collision warning features? I can't more than a second or 2 of test footage from the U1000, U3000 or U3000 Pro and absolutely no actual tes

Thinkware can be connected to the rig's hot spot for access directly or via the cloud, and the U3000 is a solid cam.

Call you tell me if this dashacam is sending a real-time push notification to the mobile app during an impact while it is in the RADAR mode? Means will it wake up the LTE module to send out a notifica

The thinkware U3000 comes with an OBD2 plug. So one end of the wire plugs into the top of the U3000 and the other end plugs into the OBD2 port.

r/Dashcamneutral1

The U1000 plus has an option called Privacy Recording, and it's possible the U3000 may get it with a firmware update in future.

r/Dashcampositive1

U3000 definitely has the privacy mode options.

r/Dashcampositive1

Thinkwares OBD2 is handy for DIY installation, however it does not work on every vehicle. ... the u3000 has low battery protection settings within the cam.

r/Dashcamneutral1

Maybe I should just hardwire the U3000 and then use the T-Mobile hotspot in the OBD..what's your suggestion?

r/LexusIS500neutral1

Itโ€™s an aftermarket dahscam, thinkware u3000

r/dashcamsneutral2

thinkware u3000 if you use the obd2 power cable.
