BlackVue DR770X-2CH-LTE

The DR770-2CH-LTE is fully functional as a ‘typical’ dash cam, whether you choose to utilize the LTE and Cloud features or not:

• When plugged in to your standard power outlet in the vehicle, the system will still power on and off with the vehicle, automatically recording audio, video and GPS location at all times as you drive.
• The DR770-2CH-LTE can also be powered by the BlackVue B-130X Battery Pack while the vehicle is parked. Parking mode recordings are stored on the memory card.
• All normal driving and parking mode recordings are automatically stored locally on the internal BlackVue memory card (32/64/128/256 GB options available). Once the memory card is completely ‘full’, only the oldest video file on the card is overwritten as each new video file is created (this is known as loop recording).
• The memory card can be removed from the 770-LTE and plugged in to your PC or Mac using the included microSD to USB adapter. This is an easy way to do a bulk download or backup of all your videos.
• The DR770-2CH-LTE does not have a screen on it from which to play back recorded videos from the memory card. Thankfully, the recordings can be accessed via a direct WiFi connection. You connect to the 770-LTE with your smartphone the same way you would connect to a WiFi network at Starbucks, then use the BlackVue app to view and download your recordings.
• Audio recording can be disabled temporarily, or by default.
• GPS speed display can be disabled from being visible in your recordings.
• Everything you need to use the system is included in the box: front camera with mount, rear camera with mount, BlackVue memory card, plug-in power cable, video cable between the front and rear cameras, etc.

With the BlackVue Over-the-Cloud service, you’re all set to utilize the amazing features that come with having an account. Learn more about the BlackVue Over-the-Cloud features and the free and paid account offerings here.

It’s important to note that even with 4G built-in, not ALL recordings created by your 770-LTE dash cam are sent up to the Cloud automatically. Not only is it typically unnecessary (for most drivers) to have a Cloud backup of literally every second of normal driving or parking mode videos, but uploading each and every recording to the Cloud via LTE would simply consume too much data to be feasible. For example, a 2 hour drive could easily generate 20 GB+ of video files on the memory card, so you can see how trying to send this much data to the Cloud would quickly burn up tons and tons of data allocation. Even on “unlimited” data plans, you may discover they are not truly unlimited in what you are allowed to do with them (see your carrier/plan for specifics).

With that being said, BlackVue has solved this problem by automatically uploading “important” files to the Cloud for you! During normal driving, or when parked, if an “event” triggers the correct sensor thresholds, that video is going to be backed up to the Cloud immediately, so that you can access the video later. Pretty slick!
