LIDL Nextbase Dashcam


Recommended Posts

Been looking at a dashcam for some time but there’s always other priorities when it comes to spending money.

This week however I heard an advert on the radio for LIDL car accessories which looking at their website revealed a Nextbase 112 dashcam on offer at  mere £29.99 with an RRP of £49.99.

This was at 12.00 on Sunday and although doubtful there would be any left I drove to my local store and managed to get one.....winner!

Fitted the kit in my van as this is what I drive the most then....here comes the Lexus bit....I then fitted another power supply for it in the LS400.

Removed the interior light cluster and mirror and found there was space above to install the power supply which I decided to tap off the supply for the interior light but then realised it needs to be a switched 12 volt supply so the camera only operates when the ignition is switched on.

I reconfigured the light so the interior and driver’s side map lights come on together then used the manual map light switch to supply the power so I now had a switchable supply.

So now all I have to do is move the camera and mount between vehicles and connect the USB lead for power in either.

It’s only the base dashcam but has good features including a shock sensor which records if the car is bumped also already had a 32gb memory card so no further expense.

A good result!  I've had a dash cam for some time and have recorded some shocking driving!

Yes, standards of driving isn’t good. Lack of indications and trying to squeeze past parked vehicles and expecting oncoming traffic to give way... lack of training I guess

It took 20 seconds for me but that's not the problem. I think it's because it's a .mov file and not all players have the correct codecs to play it. VLC Player allows you to convert .mov to .mp4 or .avi which are more widely used and recognised files.

And yes, well worth a look - which is exactly what they didn't do before pulling out :jawdrop:
