Thats something similar to Ebay guarantee. However this will be a black mark for the seller. Hence, they will usually mark it as shipped sometimes and later actually ship the product.

Re: The Dashcam / Car Video Recorder (DVR) Thread

Even my second order placed on 19th Jan got cancelled. Received a mail yesterday.

The first order placed on Jan 17 is shipped.

Not too bothered about the second one getting cancelled.

Re: The Dashcam / Car Video Recorder (DVR) Thread

Is there a battery operated Dashcam that can run for 6-8 hours?

I am okay with
  • VGA resolution
  • Charging the device before and after a long trip

I think action cameras like GoPro could give you long hours of recording on a single charge, but still may not be 6 to 8 hours.

Another idea is to use a regular dashcam and power it using a power bank. A big power bank like 8000 or 10000mAH should give very good backup time.

I've extended the processing time by 3 additional days. I can extend it again I guess. Let's see if the seller gets fed up and ships

If you have a power bank, i suggest you to use that for your dashcam. My dashcam (BP 2.0) which is used for one hour per day, my power bank (ADATA PT100) can run for more than a month before i need to charge it again.

What should be the capacity of Power bank? I have a Ravpower 10040mah unit.Is it sufficient?

You'll be very lucky if you get 3 hours running time on a GoPro or similar action cameras

use the following website for tracking in English
http://www.17track.net/en/

You can also try
http://track-chinapost.com/startairmail.php?code=


If you still get messages in Chinese, Use Google Translate

Re: The Dashcam / Car Video Recorder (DVR) Thread

Results were in English:
17track:Item is not found at this moment, If necessary, please verify with the package sender and check back later.
2.Track-Chinapost:Parcel#02*******02 is invalid, China Post has not received any parcel associated with !
So,I guess seller may not have actually despatched yet but given a random tracking #.
OR,as it is not sent by Registered Air Mail, tracking # is unavailable.
[AliExpress tracking#s usually have "RJ..digits...CN. I have in the past tracked them successfully]

Mine is 10000 mah. This should be more than sufficient in your case. Apart from dashcam, I also used my power bank to charge my mobile (occasionally when i had to drive with google maps ON) and bluetooth ear set.
