TOOO Cycling DVR80 - HD camera and 80 lumen tail light combo

Product Information

How bright is too bright when it comes to bike rear lights? If your answer is 'nothing is too bright', consider the Lezyne Strip Drive Pro 300, a red blinker with 11 different modes and a staggering 300-lumen light output.

Recordtime: Set the recording time length of each video by choosing Mode 0, 1, 2 or 3.7. About the indicator When charging using the charging cord, the indicator light is red. Once the battery is fully charged, the light will be off. TOOO Cycling says the light sensor offers high definition footage even in very low light conditions, thanks to the quality of the SONY IMX 323 CMOS camera sensor: “Visual details will be clear, even at night in low ambient light (license plates, type of vehicle, faces can be identified)." Under the "TIME" settings line, four additional code lines are present showing respectively " FileFormat", " Resolution", " Stamp" and " Recordtime". Your footage will always look smooth and silky, the higher frame rate option (60fps) and Sony sensor along with the stable seat post mount ensures great image stabilisation so you know number plate recognition will always be possible.The camera can record at 1080p @ 60fps, which TOOO Cycling notes “is the norm for all sports cameras since it allows to almost vanish all motion blur”. The TOOO Cycling DVR80 is a seat post mounted rear full HD camera and 80 lumen light combination designed to film your rides and provides evidence of unfortunate events out on the road. Think of it as your dash cam for your bike. Loop recording ensures you never have to clear your microSD card (not included) when full, the device will simply rewrite over existing footage time and time again. Your footage will always look smooth and silky, the higher frame rate option (60fps) and Sony sensor along with the stable seat post mount ensures great image stabilisation so you know number plate recognition will always be possible.

The only way to get the video is to pull the microSD card and mount it as a drive, or use the USB cable. I used a USB cable to a Windows PC. It was easy to find the files. All nicely listed by date, all in a manageable size. Seems to work great as a light. It has the usual selections of modes and intensity. It's easy to switch between with the one-button interface, even reaching behind the seat while riding. I have no reason not to believe the specs on lumens, etc. It seems nice and bright in daylight. Needless to say, the consequences of a rear-end shunt can be severe, so it’s a wise idea to invest in a bright rear light to attract the attention of those around you. In fact, it’s the law. According to UK legislation (the Road Vehicles Lighting Regulations 1989, fact fans), it's illegal to cycle on a public road after dark without lights and reflectors. You’re unlikely to get pulled over if you eschew the latter, but lights are essential.By Wednesday, the content cauldron at BikeRadar HQ was simmering nicely as Shimano unveiled a delectable Limited silver-polished version of its GRX gravel groupset in time for Unbound 2022.

Now let’s take a look at the best rear lights you can get for your money. Storage:Footage records onto a microSD card with capacities up to 128GB (approx 2400 minutes of film)

Image stability during rides shouldn’t be a problem either, says TOOO Cycling, thanks to the high frames per second rate, the imagery sensor and the mounting of the camera. Hard to gauge quality on a first take. But it seems decent. Everything worked out of the box. The USB connector (USB C) and microSD card slot are protected by rubber inserts, like the Cycliq. They seem solid. And are easier to close than some of Cycliq's where you have to kind of massage the long inserts to get them to fit in right. No massaging on this one. When the device is off, briefly press the switch button once to start it. When the device is on, press and hold the switch button for 3 seconds to turn it off.

GET IN TOUCH

a. Plug in the SD car (a new SD card is best to ensure proper functioning of the card memory and settings) and turn it on.

In more red-hot breaking news, Adidas announced the release of its first road cycling shoe with a Boa dial.Included is everything you need to mount the DVR80 to any seatpost, including aero posts, and the unit is extremely reliable in all conditions thanks to IPX5 water resistance and impact resistance. Battery life is excellent, at up to 9.5 hours, so you should be covered for both commutes and longer days on the bike. Includes FileFormat: set the file format of the video. Leave as is unless you have any special requirement for your own advanced knowledge of video file formatting. It is recommended to use TS format, this way even if the machine is seriously damaged and shuts down unexpectedly, the video recording before shut down will not be lost. c. Connect the device that is OFF the computer or plug the SD card into the computer via the USB cable. The DVR80 is simple to operate with one button control meaning you can concentrate on enjoying your ride or commute while unit does its thing! But they all use a "TS" extension. Not MP4, or any of the formats commonly used by GoPro, Cycliq, and others. Odd. I had to convert the file I wanted to edit before uploading to YouTube.
