DASH CAMS FROM CARCOMMS
Our dash cams come equipped with many features including wide angle lenses, parking mode, loop recording, G-sensors, and night vision as standard. They are designed for your security and peace of mind, recording every moment of your journey.
WHAT IS A DASH CAM?
Dash cams are now an essential tool for drivers who are seeking added security on the road. A dash cam, which is short for dashboard camera, records real-time footage of your journey, typically mounted at the front on the windscreen, just behind the rear-view mirror.
All dash cams sold and/or fitted by CarComms are hardwired to the vehicle's fuse box, with all wiring hidden, for seamless integration. Most dash cams activate automatically when the vehicle is turned on, using the wide-angle lenses to record a full view of your surroundings at all times.
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF A DASH CAM?
There are a number of benefits that come with using a dash cam; below are just some of them:
Evidence after accidents
Your dash cam records from the minute you turn on the car, meaning you will always be recording your journey, including any bumps or accidents you may have. The footage captured can potentially be used to help your insurer as some insurance companies now accept it when making a claim.
Insurance claims
Dash cam footage can potentially be used (depending on your insurer) to help determine fault if an accident takes place. It can allow claims to be resolved more quickly and allows for a more accurate assessment.
Security when parked
Your dash cam can help protect your car even when you are not there. If bumped when parked, your dash cam can register the impact and immediately start recording footage of the incident.
DASH CAM FEATURES
Dash cams from CarComms offer a wide range of features as standard; below we have listed just a few of them:
HD resolution
All of our dash cams have a minimum resolution of 1080p (Full HD). The resolution varies depending on the model you choose, but with CarComms you can have peace of mind that our dash cams will record nearly every detail of the road in front of you.
G-Sensor
This is to record any impact over a pre-set value. When your dash cams 'feels' an impact, it automatically stores and protects the footage before and after the incident, so the recording won't be lost or overwritten. Most cameras allow you to press a button to do the same thing.
Wide viewing angles
We offer dash cams with up to 140⁰ viewing angle, to capture an excellent view of the road.
Night vision
Driving at night can be hard, but you can feel a bit more secure if your dash cam includes night vision. Night vision provides a clear recording not only at night, but even on those dark mornings or winter days. You really won't miss any detail.
