Hey, what's up? It's Nick with Bearded Adventures. I'm here to talk about a product I was given
00:05
by a company from HFK. This is their dash cam, the model HM-201. It is a dual camera
00:13
system, full HD, front and rear cameras, fully waterproof and dustproof. The cameras did
00:22
come packaged very, very well. All the components are color coded, so it's very easy to install.
00:29
Anyone with a simple mechanical ability can do it. It took me about an hour to install.
00:37
So let me walk you around and show you how I did it.
00:43
Here's the front camera there. And then I tucked my back camera up under here. Right
00:55
there is the back camera. This is all set up. Here's the camera underneath. Here's
00:64
the power button and then the Wi-Fi button. As you see, it only powers up, the red light
00:76
there's power, and it makes an audible sound. It only powers up when the key on the ignition
00:83
is turned on. And then when I turn it off, it does have a delay when you shut it off.
00:93
All cables come, you can see they're color coded. Those are the cameras there, the power
00:97
there. I think this is a great unit, so let me start with the one negative I see on this.
00:104
It's definitely not a deal breaker. I don't like that when you're done recording or if
00:109
you want to get the footage off the DVR unit, you have to pull your seat off and push the
00:116
Wi-Fi button for three seconds and then you have to pair your phone with the device to
00:123
download any content. It would be nice to be able to just download the content without
00:127
having to do all that. Somehow turn on the Wi-Fi via a remote or something. With that
00:135
being said, that's it. Other than that, this is a great unit. As you can see, the quality
00:140
of the pictures are great. As a content creator, this is recording all the time. It does five
00:147
minute loops and deletes the oldest footage. There's a 64 gigabyte hard drive on it. It
00:153
deletes the last footage and then keeps recording over. So your camera is recording all the
00:159
time. So any of these crazy, awesome, oh shoot, I didn't get my camera out in time, you're
00:166
recording. So that is great. The other good pro is that the safety aspect of it. You have
00:174
a camera on all the time. So when crazy cuts you off, you get into an accident, it's all
00:183
being recorded. That being said, on the accident, there is a G-Force sensor on the unit. So
00:190
if you have a crash or a bump, and it locks that footage from whatever amount of G-Force
00:197
is then required to make the sensor go off, there's a settings in the camera that's low,
00:203
medium and high. And it will set off the G-Force sensor and lock the footage that was just
00:211
recorded. So if you do have a, you do use this for dual sport or adventure bike like I do, you
00:219
want to set it on the highest G-Force setting. Okay, that way you don't have to worry about it
00:224
inadvertently going off. HFK has done a great job with this. The instructions are great. The color
00:232
coding is great. It's really simple. Anyone with decent mechanical knowledge can install it. It's
00:237
very simple. So if you're in the market for a additional camera or a dash camera for your
00:243
motorcycle, I think this is a great product and you should pick one up. Again, the link is in the
00:249
description. Pick up one for yourself. Thanks. See you on the trail.
