BOBLOV B4K2 128GB 4K Body Worn Camera with GPS, Two 3000mAh Batteries for 14-16hours Record, 4K Camcorders Video Camera with Charging Dock

When pointing the camera towards a dark area, the backlight brightens it up. That is amazing and I did not expect that.

I don’t typically leave many reviews away used to however I got this camera as a replacement for a knock-off that was about 10.7 ounces back when the magnetic Clips didn’t really work well with t-shirts because the last camera was heavy and bulkier the original magnetic clip only had only three magnets. They weren’t comfortable and easily would dislodge. they were like 190oz, 140oz now this one is abkut like a 2/3 of the size. I have the new model in transit today. I purchased this camera bscause the old one one was overheating. Law enforcement will generally turn the body cam on when an altercation takes place ans they’ll typically leave it on throughout. as long as the body can was on them it’ll back record something shkukd it happens in frojt of the camera if lowered uo but wasn’t recording yet. for civilian use, if you want battery life look no futrther. civilians need the extra battery life because we generally record most of the day for personal ‘just in case’ evidence scenarios (personal protection) Tghjs model also has GPS option stamped with mao coordinates in realtime (at ni additional cost) It’s phenomenal. jt also has well abkve avg infrared night vision up to 50ft which csn be manually enabked/disabled or swt to engage automatically. Tbh, unless you’re someahere with no lights at all (such as the woods) there isn’t a need for infrared. This isnt a GoPro. The night lighting of the regukar shooting method looks correct. Speaking of, likethe GoPro, the mic is also front facing hkweverbthis has some form of ANC (Active Noise Canceling). I wear it on my left backpack strap over my pectoral muscle and the wind noise isn’t there, while riding motod powered bikes. I’ve done the same with a GoPro and all that i heard was static like wind plus a terrible night image even in well-lit areas. Know tlur civilian rights and remember there is no such thing as “ignorance to the law” Be cwrtain you fully understand how a camera may orcmay not be used (based on situation) Oncenyou are practice and do not hesitate to show an officer your usage , early on, to confirm that you are using kt properly. Yoj won’t get in troubke if your doing somethingnwrong and you’ll be told how to correct an issue should there be any at all. It will ensure that you don’t get in trouble later due to fully understanding said civilian law.. Assuming that you continue to abide by them. Rrsearch the updated statutes each year and again if things change simply run kt ny an officsr in person, again. Thks doesn’t have to be done at a precint either. I made extra certain by simply walking to an kfficer in a vehicle at night in a school larling lot across the st one eveneing, knowing the officer wasn’t veey busy at the time. I had read and then re-read tje xurrent statutes in the state of CT abktu 5x before I began camming so I fslt certain I was usijg my cam properly. Then one day Insaw that officernanfnjust shoaed ad asked. He told me I am doing everything ‘perfectly’. It’s great foe piece of mind. I’m wearing it silently where I’m allowed to. I don’t wear it in stores or restaurants which require owner consent and also it doesnt seem like necessary areas to use it. These days, I feel naked without it – I ran into a little glitch when I set a password and I already knew how to do it but it didn’t take and it kept displaying a ‘password err’ message. The default 000000 pw would also not work in tjis case. Boblov suloort provided me with a master oasswors soexific to my csm model within an hr. I’m not going to give up the master password. Seemingly, people aren’t passing these around the internet and I get why bc it’s still sort of like it’s your own password, in a way. It is a unibersal backupspecific to the cam model, after all Fantastic quality product. One battery and one Reserve even if you use all the bells and whistles you’re getting a solid 8 hours with so each battery and about 14 to 16 hours of battery life between the two of fhsn, combined. This brand rarely has a sale price except for the occasional 5% savings offer. they just happen to be having a little sale at the time of reviewing this. it’s worth $200 it’s worth $300 just pay the $180 if you’re on the fence about a body camera try it out you have a 30 day return policy you’ll see what I mean and their customer service goes along with it bc they’re right on the ball so thank you to the people who make this camera it’s awesome and I already have some people lined up ready to buy one believe it or not I can’t say enough about it it’s amazing thanks again.

*2023.02.28 – UPDATE*

After under 1 month of moderate use (mainly while driving my Roughhouse) The Screen ‘sleep to enabled’ functionality began to fail and cause me use the reset button next to the sdxc slot multiple times.. The battery life also isn’t living up to the claims. i don’t beliebe the page specifies if the avg hr of use is per battery or both combined. I would be fine with either however my bayysries or charger maycalso be defective. receiving extremely poor battery life. 2 to 4 hrs per charge. i believe i got about 8 out of the first use which someshat xonfidms 2 properly functional nayysries would last the avg hr
claim combined. that’s plenty fin, however thenbayyefy life has been all over the place and has continued to worsen with each use. Since day 1 ownership I had believed one of the batteries to be stronger than the other but i can’t really tell one from the other, at this point. i only charge with a safe standard 5v 1a charger. Still, I’m going to exchange this for the exact same model and will update if issues arrise, again -forcing me to return and try another body cam boblov model or one from the other 2 companies that i consider the top 3. boblov being one of those 3. possibly even 4 thise.others being Rexing, PatrolMaster & Aegis.
