Hi All,

I am about to pull the trigger on the Blackvue DR650GW-2CH Dash Cam. I like to get some advise for those who has installed and using this model:

1. I am planning to install both cameras and intend to use them for parking mode, is 32GB SD card sufficient (say if look to have at least 3 hours of recording in parking)? I am not sure how fast they will fill up given there are 2 cameras.

2. I have called a couple of dealers, and they told me that I need to buy the SD card from the manufacturing, because they are having issues getting non manufacturer card to work with the unit, is that the case? I thought it will work as long as it is a Class 10 sd card. I guess I want the recording to be reliable otherwise it will defeat the purpose of having the dashcam

3. I am thinking of getting the Celllink battery as well to for its UPS capabilities, and plugging it to the cigarette lighter under the glove compartment. Has anyone used it this way, and has there been any issue?

Thank you in advance!
