Grand Turismo 2K 1440P Front & FHD 1080P Rear Dash Cam Kit
Dash cams (DVR, Drive Recorder, Event Recorder) have become a popular product for Australians and the world alike. The main reason or benefit of installing a dash cam is to capture first evidence which, in the unfortunate event of an incident, could help with insurance claims and perhaps prevent any insurance fraud. As most of us are aware though dash cams have been made famous for capturing road rage, humour and other unexpected occurrences. They also serve to capture bad driving and occasionally some petty crime or acts of vandalism. Then there's the more positive benefits like recording memorable moments on road trips, and finally for the discerning parents wanting to keep an eye on the kids. Whichever reason it may be, there is without doubt sufficient justification for the small investment into a quality dash camera for your vehicle.
The Grand Turismo GT-2K is a dual channel (front and rear) dash cam kit with a 2K 1440P front resolution and FHD 1080P rear resolution. It features a compact and sleek cylindrical design and is equipped with Sony Starvis Sensors providing impressive low light capabilities for night recording. Daytime pictures are both clear and sharp with a full wide angle view of 140 degrees.
The GT-2K requires no hard wiring and is therefore easy to install. The DIY friendly kit means you'll be able to get the dash cam up and running effortlessly and without the need for an auto-electrician. Included in the kit is a DC/DC Adaptor suitable for cars and trucks using a 12V/24V power supply. The dash cam can also be connected to USB power using an optional cable. The dash cam can even be used as a portable camera recorder, simply connect to a 12V portable battery pack for on-the-go recording!
With Dual Band Wi-fi built-in the system can operate on either 2.4G and 5G thereby avoiding any connection issues. Simply download the DashCam Player App for either Android or iOS.
The mobile phone app allows you to see live video, take snap shots (still images), switch between front and rear camera views, track your journey, change the camera settings or download captured (recorded) footage and photos.
