Ahhh quality, love it when fiddling between platforms/formats you get the results you want (hate totally locked down systems!).Yup, in fact that is why I started using it to get my old routes off Garmin Connect on to the Wahoo with TBT.
Hmmm... just read Jobe's comment. Maybe that is just via the app as I certainly got TBT on my Wahoo from the GC route I uploaded to it.
Maybe in time Komoot will be integrated into Wahoo's firmware so it sync's without needing the app (like rwgps).
Could someone recommend a decent front facing camera to pair with my Fly6? Purely for safety, not bothered about watching back otherwise.
Nearly head on’d by a Range Rover yesterday and I’ve had enough.
Have to say I'm continually impressed by my VIRB v1.I'd say a first-gen Virb is a pretty good bet. I used mine for a good few years and found it pretty handy. Battery life it just about manages 2h45m which covers most of my rides in one battery. I've got a YI 4k now too but I'm not getting on quite so well with that (though video quality is better).
Other option is probably a fly12? I've seen them pop up for £115 or so.
Got it on a IWOOT deal back in December 2014 and used it on 90% of my rides (at least!) since then, tallying up all my Strava ride times that, take off 15% and can safely say my VIRB has done nearly 900 hours of recording and is still going strong, in reality it's probably closer to 1000 as I used it for a couple of weeks of snowboarding (4-6 hours a day) which isn't on Strava.
Hate to say it, but I only paid £72 for the VIRB back in 2014 too! Was a mega deal at the time, they never dropped that low before being replaced...!
Love the lorry draft! He didn't like you doing it much though did he lolI commute with a Fly12 Gen 1. Quality is decent enough with good battery life and built-in light. I suppose it's a bit bulky and heavy but it doesn't slow me down. I've already used footage to report a driver to the Met for jumping a red.
Here's some example footage although Youtube seems to have lost some of the quality from the original.
Run my VIRB on ECO mode and get around 16 hours of recording on a 32gig card, battery life at around 3.5-4 hours. Did run 4 batteries (carry a spare with me on long rides) but lost 1 and another stopped charging, really should get another but struggled to find one last time and wasn't cheap...
I generally find ECO is enough, during the bad weather and darkness it's tricky to pick out numberplates but even in HD mode you get the same problem (glare, distortion, debris & water on lens). I'll take the speed, storage and battery life of 720p any day! Can do nearly a week of commuting without a charge/battery change.
