Frequently Asked Questions
Does the Lotacoex Dash Cam With Parking Mode work while my car is parked?
Yes, with the optional hardwire kit, the Lotacoex provides true 24-hour parking surveillance. It automatically records when motion or impact is detected and includes low-voltage cutoff to protect your battery.
What memory card size do I need for the dash cam?
The dash cam supports microSD cards from 32GB to 512GB, Class 10 or U3 recommended. A 128GB card typically stores 8-10 hours of 4K footage before loop recording overwrites oldest files.
Can I view footage directly on my smartphone?
Absolutely. Built-in Wi-Fi connects to the free iOS or Android app, letting you preview, download, and share clips instantly. You can also adjust all settings directly from your phone for convenience.
How does the G-sensor emergency lock feature work?
The built-in G-sensor detects sudden impacts or hard braking and automatically locks that footage to prevent it from being overwritten during loop recording, preserving critical evidence of accidents or incidents.
Is the rear camera included or sold separately?
The rear camera is optional. The base package includes the 4K front camera; you can add the 1080P night vision rear camera with 6-meter cable separately for comprehensive dual-channel coverage.
Will this dash cam drain my car battery overnight?
When hardwired correctly with the optional kit, the intelligent low-voltage cutoff automatically stops recording before your battery drains too low, ensuring your car starts reliably while maintaining parking protection.
Does the 4K recording work well at night?
Yes, the Sony IMX415 sensor, F1.8 aperture, and WDR technology deliver excellent low-light performance. License plates and road signs remain clearly readable even in darkness, tunnels, and challenging nighttime conditions.
Can I install this dash cam myself without professional help?
Yes, installation is straightforward. The adhesive mount attaches to your windshield, plug into the 12V socket, and voice prompts guide setup. The included manual provides clear instructions for DIY installation.
