Yeap I have the latest update, and on a class 10 card rather then that crappy class 6 it came with.

Here is what my camera is doing only betwen the hours of 2p.m. & 5p.m. The hottest times of the day. I'm here in Florida where it will reach 97 outside and about 130 in my car. Keep in mind this is only when I use parking mode too.


Many others having the same issue on the redflagdeals forums.

Once you turn the car on is the video normal? I'm considering this camera and probably won't be using the parking mode, but I'm curious if my car sits out in the sun if I'll get the purple video even after I start up the car?

For instance, the high today is suppose to be 107. I'm curious if my car sits out in the heat for a few hours if the camera will malfunction until the interior cools down (which will probably take a while)?

I may just end up getting the ITB-100 instead.

**UPdate** I don't want to see anyone else get suckered. If you live in southern states... Stay away from this camera.

This really bites. I have 2 DR400G's.
I live in Florida where my car will reach 108 degrees inside in the afternoon. Both (only in the afternoon whilst in parking mode) will only record purple lines or blackness. Presumably due to the heat.
Now recently, both have stopped GPS all together. I must have fried it in the heat.

Blackvue/pittasoft doesn't respond to any of my emails. I have emailed them in Korean at their Korean sites email fill in form and their english sites fill in form. I have emailed them in both Korean and English languages. I've also done the same with the ebay seller.

THE ONLY blackvue person that responds to me is the android app developer.


Anyone ever been in a situation like this? Should i call my credit card company for refund since they warranty purchases for a year? I've never done that before.
