I currently have a Road Angel Halo front and rear dashcam system in my 2014 RRS plus a separate Road Angel Gem speed camera warning device. Both units have worked faultlessly. My new RRS is coming next month and I thought I'd take the opportunity to upgrade the system if possible. What I would really like is a combined front dashcam/ speed camera warning device which is unobtrusive enough to mount behind the rear view mirror together with a similarly unobtrusive rear camera

There are a few combined front dashcam/speed warning devices on the market but none that I could find with a rear dashcam in the system. Also I have had several Road Angel camera warning devices and they work very well including the constant updating facility and I wouldnt want to lose that kind of capability in a combined unit

Anyone got a recommendation? Also can anyone recommend an installer in or near South Bucks?

God I hope I don't get stuck behind you.

Well this thread didnt help me much did it

Thinkware make dual dashcams with speed camera alerts

I have the F750 (upgraded firmware to F770) in my Mitsubishi and F770 in my Lexus on recommendation of others and I'm a lot happier with them than the 3 previous faulty Blackvue I had in my RRSs. You also get free speed camera updates for life from their website

I try very hard to obey the speed limits but like the alerts as a reminder because even I'm not perfect all the time

I did have an issue with Thinkware GPS lock on my DS due to windscreen but resolved it eventually with some repositioning  Wanted a Series 2 LR since childhood but previously owned MY16 Disco Sport HSE TD4 Auto, MY13 RR Sport Black Edition TDV6 Auto, MY10 RR Sport HSE TDV6 Auto, 2007 Freelander 1 Freestyle TD4 Soft Top, 2009 Freelander 2 GS TD4 Auto, 2007 Freelander 2 GS TD4, 2004 Disco 2 Metropolis Auto, 2002 Disco 2 GS, 2000 Freelander 1 SE TD4 SW

Thanks muddywheels just the sort of info I was looking for

For the record I also do not habitually speed. But I also happen to believe that the speed camera network in the UK has very little to do with safety and far more to do with revenue generation. Since I do not wish to risk partaking in this cash extraction scheme, I have speed camera warning devices in my vehicles

I also concur with Muddywheels for the F770 model.
I think Tim in Scotland has this too. John

I've been thinking of a dashcam for quite a while, but none have really cut my OCD mustard. But I'm liking the look of the F770!

Any pics of it in situ front and back? it looks a big unit!?! SOLD - MY16 SDV6 Autobiography Dynamic - Fire Engine Red, Fixed contrast pan roof, TV, Dual Screen, 5+2, Privacy, Noble paddles.

I also have the F770 (taken out of my last car and haven't got round to fitting in the RRS yet ). It is bulkier than say a BlackVue, and you have to remember that it needs the GPS and regular updates re speed camera's, which is fixed sites and areas that mobile camera's have been known to frequent. With the fixed sites, it will give you a couple of warnings before you get to them, albeit in a rather annoying American voice.
Picture quality is good, and you can set the level at which it will shut down if the battery gets low when you are away from the car.
I am reasonably confident that it will fit out of sight of the driver under the rear view mirror. I had an option connector on my last car, but need some piggy back fuse connectors to hard wire it.

I have a Thinkware X500

Whilst basically ok it has two problems:

1. Volume is too low, even at maximum it is quiet and my Autobiography is not a noisy car
2. Mobile traffic camera alerts cannot be turned off. You can either have all alerts on or all alerts off, not selective alerts. Therefore in some areas (like the south east UK) EVERY location where the police once set up a mobile radar trap gives you an alert. Therefore the thing is bleating away continuously. For example the M4 from Junction 15 (Swindon) to Junction 17 (Chippenham). The Wiltshire constabulary once used to have a mobile trap that moved around this stretch daily, it therefore bleats away for the whole motorway stretch which is completely annoying. 2016 RRS 4.4 TDV8 Autobiography Dynamic in Montalcino Red and Stealth Kit

I've had the Thinkware in the DS and the Mitsubishi and they're not visible from the drivers seat being behind the mirror which is handy for catching out mechanics

They're a bit more visible to people outside the vehicle but I see that as more of a deterrent  Wanted a Series 2 LR since childhood but previously owned MY16 Disco Sport HSE TD4 Auto, MY13 RR Sport Black Edition TDV6 Auto, MY10 RR Sport HSE TDV6 Auto, 2007 Freelander 1 Freestyle TD4 Soft Top, 2009 Freelander 2 GS TD4 Auto, 2007 Freelander 2 GS TD4, 2004 Disco 2 Metropolis Auto, 2002 Disco 2 GS, 2000 Freelander 1 SE TD4 SW

I agree the alerts can be a bit annoying but it's a price I'm willing to pay for the reminder - the volume on F750 and F770 is fine for me

I've got a Thinkware F770. What I like is that its got both front and rear cameras, and the safety camera alert in one unit. Easy enough to install yourself although a more professional fit would perhaps be a bit neater. I wouldn't call, it unobtrusive however - the front box is a reasonable size and you can't locate it right behind the mirror or the front lens would have to peer through the checkerboard effect on the windscreen reducing clarity of vision and recording. And similarly the rear camera, should really be low enough to see through the area swept by the rear wiper (mines a bit too high in the photo) or you will again loose clarity of vision and recording. Personally I'd prefer that villains see it and decide to go elsewhere. I'm not out to catch them - I don't want them to start in the first place. I plan to have a go at hiding the rear wire a bit more, but there is the deterrent effect because its on show. The front camera has the option to turn on a series of outward facing LEDs to help with the deterrent effect. The rear camera also has a small blue light so again its not hidden.
The mobile camera warnings are a pain but you get used to them, and you can of course turn them all off. Biggest niggle for me is the fact that the buttons would have been better if slightly illuminated so that they can be seen. This is not a show stopper but when you are asked to reformat the SD card (about every two weeks) its a pain to find the right button.
