WEBVTT

00:00:00.160 --> 00:00:03.840
Here's a product that everybody needs

00:00:02.240 --> 00:00:06.160
and not enough people are talking about.

00:00:03.840 --> 00:00:08.800
It's a dash cam. And Vanru sponsored

00:00:06.160 --> 00:00:10.800
this ShortCircuit of the unboxing of

00:00:08.800 --> 00:00:13.440
their P2, which is the second in the

00:00:10.800 --> 00:00:15.120
pilot series of dash cams. And the cool

00:00:13.440 --> 00:00:17.840
thing about it is that this is the

00:00:15.120 --> 00:00:20.320
world's first dash cam system with a

00:00:17.840 --> 00:00:22.000
thermal camera. And you might be like,

00:00:20.320 --> 00:00:25.359
"Brother, why do you need a thermal

00:00:22.000 --> 00:00:27.039
camera nighttime?" And Vanrude told us

00:00:25.359 --> 00:00:28.480
that the reason they were inspired to

00:00:27.039 --> 00:00:31.840
make this product was actually there was

00:00:28.480 --> 00:00:33.600
a really bad crash uh in China in 2023

00:00:31.840 --> 00:00:35.200
where thick fog very unfortunately

00:00:33.600 --> 00:00:37.360
claimed the lives of 19 people and

00:00:35.200 --> 00:00:38.640
injured 20 others. Uh and one of the big

00:00:37.360 --> 00:00:40.879
advantage of this system is that it's

00:00:38.640 --> 00:00:43.360
not just recording the things that uh

00:00:40.879 --> 00:00:44.879
have happened. It actually has a little

00:00:43.360 --> 00:00:47.280
entertainment unit that can give you

00:00:44.879 --> 00:00:49.680
advanced forewarning to help keep you

00:00:47.280 --> 00:00:51.920
safe on the fly. First, let's finish

00:00:49.680 --> 00:00:55.120
unboxing all this stuff. We have our

00:00:51.920 --> 00:00:57.520
12vt adapter. We have our very long CO

00:00:55.120 --> 00:01:01.120
to C number one. We have our slightly

00:00:57.520 --> 00:01:03.120
less long C to C 2. And then we have a C

00:01:01.120 --> 00:01:05.040
to proprietary connector that will plug

00:01:03.120 --> 00:01:07.040
into our third camera. That's because

00:01:05.040 --> 00:01:08.479
this is a quad camera system. There's

00:01:07.040 --> 00:01:10.880
our thermal camera that's going to sit

00:01:08.479 --> 00:01:12.799
on the hood. We have our front camera

00:01:10.880 --> 00:01:14.799
that's in the front of our cabin that's

00:01:12.799 --> 00:01:16.720
facing out, but then also driver side

00:01:14.799 --> 00:01:18.320
in. And then we have our rear camera.

00:01:16.720 --> 00:01:20.320
So, this has kind of got you covered all

00:01:18.320 --> 00:01:22.640
around your car. Let's see what else we

00:01:20.320 --> 00:01:25.520
got. Okay, we have uh little cable

00:01:22.640 --> 00:01:28.000
management buddoo hickeyies. I think

00:01:25.520 --> 00:01:30.720
that's the technical term. We have other

00:01:28.000 --> 00:01:32.799
velcro style cable management. We have

00:01:30.720 --> 00:01:34.079
uh what I is a panel lifter for your

00:01:32.799 --> 00:01:35.360
car. We're going to talk a little bit

00:01:34.079 --> 00:01:37.040
more about the installation when we get

00:01:35.360 --> 00:01:39.759
there. The next thing we have, and this

00:01:37.040 --> 00:01:43.840
is kind of the heart of the system, is

00:01:39.759 --> 00:01:46.079
this 6.25 in touchscreen display. They

00:01:43.840 --> 00:01:48.640
call it their HUD display. This just

00:01:46.079 --> 00:01:50.240
like feels like a giant phone. This is

00:01:48.640 --> 00:01:52.320
so weird, especially like an iPhone 8

00:01:50.240 --> 00:01:54.000
with the freaking return button. And

00:01:52.320 --> 00:01:55.759
most of the processing that's happening

00:01:54.000 --> 00:01:56.799
with all the units is happening in the

00:01:55.759 --> 00:01:58.719
screen. So that means that if you

00:01:56.799 --> 00:02:00.560
actually have to replace a camera, you

00:01:58.719 --> 00:02:03.439
only have to replace that camera and

00:02:00.560 --> 00:02:04.719
cable, which is about $150, uh you don't

00:02:03.439 --> 00:02:06.000
have to replace the whole system all at

00:02:04.719 --> 00:02:08.160
once. So I think that's a smart

00:02:06.000 --> 00:02:11.039
consideration for making this a pretty

00:02:08.160 --> 00:02:12.959
decent value package. Oh, the back

00:02:11.039 --> 00:02:14.400
actually comes off and that's really

00:02:12.959 --> 00:02:16.720
cool. Venture is actually releasing the

00:02:14.400 --> 00:02:18.080
3D printing schematics, so you could

00:02:16.720 --> 00:02:19.360
either print theirs or you could

00:02:18.080 --> 00:02:20.959
customize and make something that will

00:02:19.360 --> 00:02:22.800
work better for your vehicle. So, we

00:02:20.959 --> 00:02:24.640
have on the back our little mount. We

00:02:22.800 --> 00:02:26.400
have a lot of cooling. We don't know a

00:02:24.640 --> 00:02:28.560
ton about the processing, but it is a

00:02:26.400 --> 00:02:30.959
dual core high performance chip. We also

00:02:28.560 --> 00:02:34.480
have an ox port. We have a type-C, which

00:02:30.959 --> 00:02:36.400
is our power in. On the top, we have our

00:02:34.480 --> 00:02:38.080
primary physical button, as well as our

00:02:36.400 --> 00:02:39.840
micro SD slot. That's good for up to a

00:02:38.080 --> 00:02:41.040
terabyte of storage. I mean, the whole

00:02:39.840 --> 00:02:43.120
point of a dash cam is to be able to

00:02:41.040 --> 00:02:45.680
have a a good coverage of any accidents

00:02:43.120 --> 00:02:47.200
that have happened. And especially if

00:02:45.680 --> 00:02:48.319
someone dings your car and you need to

00:02:47.200 --> 00:02:49.760
be able to go back through your footage,

00:02:48.319 --> 00:02:52.160
it's nice to be able to have that 1

00:02:49.760 --> 00:02:53.840
TBTE. On the other side, we have our

00:02:52.160 --> 00:02:56.160
thermal cameras and then our front cabin

00:02:53.840 --> 00:02:58.480
and rear port. One thing that's really

00:02:56.160 --> 00:03:01.360
cool about this unit is that it's not

00:02:58.480 --> 00:03:03.040
just designed to control the cameras.

00:03:01.360 --> 00:03:04.800
You can actually connect it to your uh

00:03:03.040 --> 00:03:06.400
entertainment system. It has Bluetooth.

00:03:04.800 --> 00:03:08.800
It's a huge upgrade, especially if you

00:03:06.400 --> 00:03:10.159
have an older car. You can do texts via

00:03:08.800 --> 00:03:12.560
chat. So, while you're driving, you can

00:03:10.159 --> 00:03:14.239
communicate safely, which is huge. Avoid

00:03:12.560 --> 00:03:15.760
those really expensive distracted

00:03:14.239 --> 00:03:17.200
driving tickets. Don't text and drive,

00:03:15.760 --> 00:03:18.560
people. Be smart. Another thing to

00:03:17.200 --> 00:03:20.480
mention is that it's not just Bluetooth

00:03:18.560 --> 00:03:22.560
connectivity. It actually has Wi-Fi 6,

00:03:20.480 --> 00:03:24.400
so you can get faster and more seamless

00:03:22.560 --> 00:03:26.560
connection to your phone device that

00:03:24.400 --> 00:03:31.519
you're offloading these videos to. Next

00:03:26.560 --> 00:03:33.440
up, we have this little guy is actually

00:03:31.519 --> 00:03:35.280
our thermal camera, and this is the

00:03:33.440 --> 00:03:37.040
weatherproof housing for it. So, this

00:03:35.280 --> 00:03:40.080
will actually mount to your hood. This

00:03:37.040 --> 00:03:42.640
goes forward and this sees in the dark

00:03:40.080 --> 00:03:44.959
of night, baby, just like a vampire. One

00:03:42.640 --> 00:03:46.480
thing of note is that this has to be on

00:03:44.959 --> 00:03:47.840
the outside of your vehicle because

00:03:46.480 --> 00:03:49.680
thermal imaging doesn't really work

00:03:47.840 --> 00:03:50.879
through glass and so it has to be on the

00:03:49.680 --> 00:03:52.000
outside. You can mount it to your roof,

00:03:50.879 --> 00:03:53.200
you can mount it to your hood, and

00:03:52.000 --> 00:03:54.319
important to note because this is going

00:03:53.200 --> 00:03:56.560
to be on the outside of your car. The

00:03:54.319 --> 00:03:58.239
camera is IP67 rated, which means that

00:03:56.560 --> 00:04:01.120
it's fully waterproof. Uh, and then you

00:03:58.239 --> 00:04:03.760
also have weatherproof housing. What

00:04:01.120 --> 00:04:06.159
else we got? We have our front and cabin

00:04:03.760 --> 00:04:08.159
camera. We have our type-C out. We have

00:04:06.159 --> 00:04:09.360
our two cameras. We have our one facing

00:04:08.159 --> 00:04:10.799
forward so we can capture the accents.

00:04:09.360 --> 00:04:12.640
And then we have the one facing the

00:04:10.799 --> 00:04:14.080
cabin. This might be something that you

00:04:12.640 --> 00:04:15.840
want, especially if you're like an Uber

00:04:14.080 --> 00:04:17.600
driver. You can record for your safety

00:04:15.840 --> 00:04:18.959
or in a lawsuit, someone's claiming you

00:04:17.600 --> 00:04:20.560
were on your phone or you didn't have

00:04:18.959 --> 00:04:22.079
your seatelt on. You can prove them

00:04:20.560 --> 00:04:24.720
right and defend yourself in the court

00:04:22.079 --> 00:04:27.680
of law. Lastly, we have our backup

00:04:24.720 --> 00:04:30.000
camera, which looks a fair bit like the

00:04:27.680 --> 00:04:32.560
front and cabin one, but is smaller with

00:04:30.000 --> 00:04:35.840
one single camera and it faces the rear

00:04:32.560 --> 00:04:37.600
and it captures your butt. Uh, that's

00:04:35.840 --> 00:04:39.440
everything that's in the box. I say that

00:04:37.600 --> 00:04:41.919
as as if there wasn't a freaking

00:04:39.440 --> 00:04:43.440
buttload of things in the box. We're

00:04:41.919 --> 00:04:45.280
outside if you haven't noticed. We're

00:04:43.440 --> 00:04:47.440
going to install this in a real goodness

00:04:45.280 --> 00:04:50.240
to gracious car. So, let's start with

00:04:47.440 --> 00:04:51.600
our HUD. There's four mounting holes, so

00:04:50.240 --> 00:04:53.040
you could potentially screw it to

00:04:51.600 --> 00:04:53.919
something. This is someone's real car. I

00:04:53.040 --> 00:04:57.840
don't want to do that. So, we're just

00:04:53.919 --> 00:04:59.040
going to VHB the stuff here. We are not

00:04:57.840 --> 00:05:00.400
going to worry about cable management

00:04:59.040 --> 00:05:02.400
because this is just a temporary

00:05:00.400 --> 00:05:05.680
install. That's actually nice that I can

00:05:02.400 --> 00:05:07.680
take this off the stand so I can more

00:05:05.680 --> 00:05:10.000
easily plug things in. And then we got

00:05:07.680 --> 00:05:11.520
power. Step one

00:05:10.000 --> 00:05:13.440
complete. Next, we're going to install

00:05:11.520 --> 00:05:15.520
our front and cabin camera. We're going

00:05:13.440 --> 00:05:18.320
to get it high so it's kind of hidden by

00:05:15.520 --> 00:05:19.759
the visor thingy maboober. It's called a

00:05:18.320 --> 00:05:21.600
rear view mirror for those who don't

00:05:19.759 --> 00:05:24.160
know. Double side tape's the greatest

00:05:21.600 --> 00:05:26.160
invention. Step aside, bread. Next is

00:05:24.160 --> 00:05:27.680
the part of this installation process

00:05:26.160 --> 00:05:29.759
that has probably been the reason I

00:05:27.680 --> 00:05:32.320
haven't actually installed the dash cam,

00:05:29.759 --> 00:05:35.840
which is running all the wires. Next up,

00:05:32.320 --> 00:05:38.560
rear camera. Same process. VHB pointed

00:05:35.840 --> 00:05:40.080
backwards, baby. And then of note, the

00:05:38.560 --> 00:05:42.000
rear camera actually plugs into the

00:05:40.080 --> 00:05:44.000
front camera. The idea being that you

00:05:42.000 --> 00:05:46.320
only have to run a wire through the top.

00:05:44.000 --> 00:05:48.479
And finally, we have our thermal camera.

00:05:46.320 --> 00:05:51.120
And then that leaves our ox port empty,

00:05:48.479 --> 00:05:53.199
which is designed so that we can connect

00:05:51.120 --> 00:05:55.039
our phone to the Bluetooth of this

00:05:53.199 --> 00:05:57.440
device and then ox out from this to the

00:05:55.039 --> 00:05:59.039
car. Um, depending on the kind of car

00:05:57.440 --> 00:06:01.759
you have. Uh, we can change the refresh

00:05:59.039 --> 00:06:04.000
rate, so 50 or 60 Hz. We can change our

00:06:01.759 --> 00:06:06.000
speed unit. Uh, I'm not a crazy person,

00:06:04.000 --> 00:06:08.000
so I'm going to do kilometers. 5 GHz or

00:06:06.000 --> 00:06:10.720
2.4 GHz. We're going to stick to five.

00:06:08.000 --> 00:06:13.120
Wa. All right. We have our front camera,

00:06:10.720 --> 00:06:15.120
our thermal camera, our rear camera that

00:06:13.120 --> 00:06:17.360
is upside down. I'm hoping we can clip

00:06:15.120 --> 00:06:18.639
that. Okay, we we can manage to flip it

00:06:17.360 --> 00:06:19.759
back. We're going to have to tilt it

00:06:18.639 --> 00:06:21.840
down a little bit because I don't really

00:06:19.759 --> 00:06:23.759
need to see the clouds uh when I'm

00:06:21.840 --> 00:06:25.039
filing an insurance claim, although it

00:06:23.759 --> 00:06:27.600
is quite peaceful. Uh and then we have

00:06:25.039 --> 00:06:29.039
our cabin one is actually doing a really

00:06:27.600 --> 00:06:30.560
good job catching everything. I put it

00:06:29.039 --> 00:06:31.919
really close to the mirror, so we were

00:06:30.560 --> 00:06:33.759
worried we wouldn't see enough of what's

00:06:31.919 --> 00:06:35.759
happening in the cabin, but this looks

00:06:33.759 --> 00:06:38.080
great. I think it's time for us to take

00:06:35.759 --> 00:06:39.919
this out for a little drive and uh see

00:06:38.080 --> 00:06:43.280
how we do. The thing I'm really curious

00:06:39.919 --> 00:06:44.960
about is how good the latency on the

00:06:43.280 --> 00:06:47.199
thermal camera is because this is what

00:06:44.960 --> 00:06:49.600
I'd actually want to use if I was

00:06:47.199 --> 00:06:51.680
driving on dark streets at night to see

00:06:49.600 --> 00:06:54.319
animals. So that one thing that's cool

00:06:51.680 --> 00:06:57.440
is that uh this can act as an sort of AR

00:06:54.319 --> 00:06:59.520
heads up and identify people uh on your

00:06:57.440 --> 00:07:01.360
screen with like a little square so that

00:06:59.520 --> 00:07:03.280
it's a little bit easier to spot them

00:07:01.360 --> 00:07:05.039
even in the dark. Uh if you're going for

00:07:03.280 --> 00:07:06.639
runs at night though, wear reflective

00:07:05.039 --> 00:07:07.680
assets. Pretty important to stay alive.

00:07:06.639 --> 00:07:09.199
You know what I'm saying? Another thing

00:07:07.680 --> 00:07:10.639
to note is that the thermal camera is

00:07:09.199 --> 00:07:12.240
not really meant for day use. It

00:07:10.639 --> 00:07:13.919
actually has a protection feature that

00:07:12.240 --> 00:07:15.840
it'll turn off the sensor if it's too

00:07:13.919 --> 00:07:17.199
bright or if it senses 3 seconds of

00:07:15.840 --> 00:07:19.120
bright lights coming at it so it doesn't

00:07:17.199 --> 00:07:22.479
damage that sensor, but it's working for

00:07:19.120 --> 00:07:24.560
us. We live in an overcast uh eternal uh

00:07:22.479 --> 00:07:26.160
purgatory. One thing of that's important

00:07:24.560 --> 00:07:27.759
is not to get distracted by looking at

00:07:26.160 --> 00:07:29.280
yourself. I mean, you with one button

00:07:27.759 --> 00:07:31.199
press, you can turn it off. You don't

00:07:29.280 --> 00:07:32.400
have to worry about it. Uh, and in my

00:07:31.199 --> 00:07:34.319
case, I probably would keep it off

00:07:32.400 --> 00:07:35.919
because I do find myself constantly

00:07:34.319 --> 00:07:37.599
looking at the screen and I wouldn't be

00:07:35.919 --> 00:07:39.199
using the entertaining features,

00:07:37.599 --> 00:07:40.880
although you might want to. So, let's

00:07:39.199 --> 00:07:43.280
take a look at those. We connected our

00:07:40.880 --> 00:07:45.599
phone via CarPlay. It took almost no

00:07:43.280 --> 00:07:47.280
time at all. Really fast, actually. The

00:07:45.599 --> 00:07:48.960
way that this car is set up, we are not

00:07:47.280 --> 00:07:50.800
going to connect to the entertainment

00:07:48.960 --> 00:07:53.680
system. You do need to connect via ox

00:07:50.800 --> 00:07:56.160
cable is a great option, but you still

00:07:53.680 --> 00:07:58.639
do have other CarPlay features like

00:07:56.160 --> 00:08:02.120
Siri. Hey Siri, direct me to the Linus

00:07:58.639 --> 00:08:02.120
Media Group offices.

00:08:02.720 --> 00:08:06.000
>> Easy peasy, baby. We want to make sure

00:08:04.479 --> 00:08:07.919
that our footage was actually recording.

00:08:06.000 --> 00:08:09.440
So, we're going to check. Oh, yeah. It's

00:08:07.919 --> 00:08:10.879
there. And one thing that's cool is that

00:08:09.440 --> 00:08:12.960
it's actually sorted from like normal

00:08:10.879 --> 00:08:14.879
video, so just the continuous camera. We

00:08:12.960 --> 00:08:16.319
have event video, so if it knows that

00:08:14.879 --> 00:08:17.440
something happened, that'll be saved

00:08:16.319 --> 00:08:18.800
there. And then we have stuff from

00:08:17.440 --> 00:08:20.160
parking, which we don't have cuz we

00:08:18.800 --> 00:08:21.360
haven't been running a little parking

00:08:20.160 --> 00:08:23.599
and photo. So, it's kind of nice that

00:08:21.360 --> 00:08:25.759
it's organized a little bit for you. I

00:08:23.599 --> 00:08:27.199
think now it's time to uh hand the keys

00:08:25.759 --> 00:08:29.680
back to Brad, let him drive around for

00:08:27.199 --> 00:08:31.680
the weekend and convene on Monday and

00:08:29.680 --> 00:08:33.680
take a look at our footage. We're back.

00:08:31.680 --> 00:08:34.800
It's Monday. Brad had the camera over

00:08:33.680 --> 00:08:36.240
the weekend, so we're going to review

00:08:34.800 --> 00:08:38.159
some footage. I'm going to need some

00:08:36.240 --> 00:08:40.800
help. We're going to play a fun game of

00:08:38.159 --> 00:08:42.000
how bad of a driver is Brad. I didn't

00:08:40.800 --> 00:08:43.680
want to play this. He wanted to play

00:08:42.000 --> 00:08:45.440
this.

00:08:43.680 --> 00:08:46.959
>> Wife had different ideas. I have to play

00:08:45.440 --> 00:08:48.959
this to fill everyone in. I moved out

00:08:46.959 --> 00:08:49.279
here and crashed my car immediately.

00:08:48.959 --> 00:08:51.360
>> Nice.

00:08:49.279 --> 00:08:53.600
>> And so we are now learning if I was in a

00:08:51.360 --> 00:08:54.880
bad situation or if I'm a bad driver.

00:08:53.600 --> 00:08:55.279
>> Did you have a dash cam at the time?

00:08:54.880 --> 00:08:56.560
>> No.

00:08:55.279 --> 00:08:56.880
>> Did you wish you had a dash cam at the

00:08:56.560 --> 00:08:57.920
time?

00:08:56.880 --> 00:08:58.720
>> Maybe.

00:08:57.920 --> 00:09:00.560
>> Yeah.

00:08:58.720 --> 00:09:02.480
>> It depends on if you were at full turn.

00:09:00.560 --> 00:09:03.680
>> Yeah. Yeah. I was trying my best. All

00:09:02.480 --> 00:09:06.720
right. Sometimes things just go wrong

00:09:03.680 --> 00:09:09.040
for people. So, first footage or first

00:09:06.720 --> 00:09:11.920
clip, I guess we should say, is this was

00:09:09.040 --> 00:09:13.360
me not being led out of a merge lane. I

00:09:11.920 --> 00:09:15.360
felt like this guy was being a huge

00:09:13.360 --> 00:09:17.600
 David's going to determine if

00:09:15.360 --> 00:09:17.920
he was an or if I am a poor

00:09:17.600 --> 00:09:18.959
driver.

00:09:17.920 --> 00:09:19.839
>> This is way more fun than I thought. I

00:09:18.959 --> 00:09:21.120
thought we were just going to like open

00:09:19.839 --> 00:09:22.080
up a folder with all the footage and

00:09:21.120 --> 00:09:23.360
kind of scrub through.

00:09:22.080 --> 00:09:25.600
>> Actually, on that note, before we get

00:09:23.360 --> 00:09:27.040
into this, what we should mention is um

00:09:25.600 --> 00:09:29.120
we accidentally forgot to turn the car

00:09:27.040 --> 00:09:31.120
off when we installed it. So, it ran

00:09:29.120 --> 00:09:34.480
from about 12:30 in the afternoon to

00:09:31.120 --> 00:09:34.880
about 6:45 7ish when I got home.

00:09:34.480 --> 00:09:37.920
>> Okay.

00:09:34.880 --> 00:09:39.040
>> Um and that was I think over 50 gigs of

00:09:37.920 --> 00:09:40.720
footage. Obviously, we had that running

00:09:39.040 --> 00:09:42.080
for an extremely long period of time,

00:09:40.720 --> 00:09:42.959
but that's just kind of an estimate on

00:09:42.080 --> 00:09:43.920
how much footage you're getting because

00:09:42.959 --> 00:09:45.279
there's four cameras in here.

00:09:43.920 --> 00:09:46.320
>> Yeah. And one of the features of this

00:09:45.279 --> 00:09:48.080
camera is that you actually don't need

00:09:46.320 --> 00:09:49.519
to record all the time. It'll sense when

00:09:48.080 --> 00:09:51.600
there's events and give you 10 seconds

00:09:49.519 --> 00:09:53.279
of pre-recorded footage. So, it's it is

00:09:51.600 --> 00:09:54.880
always recording, but it's not saving to

00:09:53.279 --> 00:09:56.560
the the drive. So,

00:09:54.880 --> 00:09:58.720
>> yeah, we can actually pull that open and

00:09:56.560 --> 00:10:00.720
you can see like normal and event in the

00:09:58.720 --> 00:10:01.120
the folder and photos if we took any

00:10:00.720 --> 00:10:02.320
photos. But

00:10:01.120 --> 00:10:05.360
>> I would just take selfies all day.

00:10:02.320 --> 00:10:07.040
>> Yeah. All right. So, here is Oh, this

00:10:05.360 --> 00:10:07.760
looks good. It's really clear.

00:10:07.040 --> 00:10:09.360
>> Yeah, there's pretty good lighting.

00:10:07.760 --> 00:10:10.800
Although I will say on this drive, I

00:10:09.360 --> 00:10:12.720
didn't have a B-roll cam set up, so we

00:10:10.800 --> 00:10:14.480
don't have any footage of it. Um, but

00:10:12.720 --> 00:10:16.640
this is the type of drive where the sun

00:10:14.480 --> 00:10:19.440
is kind of directly at us. The infrared

00:10:16.640 --> 00:10:20.959
camera would turn off sometimes, but all

00:10:19.440 --> 00:10:23.120
other drives all over the weekend coming

00:10:20.959 --> 00:10:25.120
to work today, everything was no

00:10:23.120 --> 00:10:27.200
problem. All right, so here he is.

00:10:25.120 --> 00:10:28.320
>> He's coming over.

00:10:27.200 --> 00:10:29.600
>> And I'm just, you know, I'm just trying

00:10:28.320 --> 00:10:31.040
to drive this lane. I guess what we saw

00:10:29.600 --> 00:10:32.320
in the earlier clip was that it ends.

00:10:31.040 --> 00:10:33.600
Like there is no way for me to stay in

00:10:32.320 --> 00:10:35.120
this lane. I have to come out.

00:10:33.600 --> 00:10:35.519
>> Oh, that license plate's really clear.

00:10:35.120 --> 00:10:38.079
>> Yeah.

00:10:35.519 --> 00:10:39.279
>> Nice job, Vandrew. I see there he

00:10:38.079 --> 00:10:40.399
finally backs out. Look how much space I

00:10:39.279 --> 00:10:41.920
had there.

00:10:40.399 --> 00:10:42.880
>> And then he's like right on my ass. What

00:10:41.920 --> 00:10:45.120
is this guy doing?

00:10:42.880 --> 00:10:46.720
>> So legally I think he is right. I think

00:10:45.120 --> 00:10:47.279
you're supposed to yield when you're

00:10:46.720 --> 00:10:48.160
merging.

00:10:47.279 --> 00:10:51.760
>> Damn.

00:10:48.160 --> 00:10:54.480
>> This is not how I wanted.

00:10:51.760 --> 00:10:57.040
>> But I feel like as a social contract on

00:10:54.480 --> 00:10:59.839
the road, the smart move for him is not

00:10:57.040 --> 00:11:01.360
to box you out. Like that's a basic

00:10:59.839 --> 00:11:03.279
school like driving school thing of

00:11:01.360 --> 00:11:05.200
like, hey, you see someone coming into

00:11:03.279 --> 00:11:07.519
that merge lane, give them room or get

00:11:05.200 --> 00:11:09.120
ahead of them. Don't do this. This is

00:11:07.519 --> 00:11:11.839
just bad driving. It's not necessarily

00:11:09.120 --> 00:11:13.760
illegal, but this guy, thumbs down.

00:11:11.839 --> 00:11:14.880
>> Yeah, I'll take that. So, this is kind

00:11:13.760 --> 00:11:16.880
of like what you see when you're

00:11:14.880 --> 00:11:18.320
driving. You see these like four things.

00:11:16.880 --> 00:11:20.000
I've got like an iPhone attached to the

00:11:18.320 --> 00:11:21.519
roof here. So, like when we pull this

00:11:20.000 --> 00:11:23.040
footage off, you don't get these green

00:11:21.519 --> 00:11:24.079
boxes, but this is what you see when

00:11:23.040 --> 00:11:26.320
you're on the road is like there's

00:11:24.079 --> 00:11:27.600
somebody. Personally, I think it would

00:11:26.320 --> 00:11:29.200
be nice if it was like a little bit of a

00:11:27.600 --> 00:11:30.959
wider angle. Uh it makes sense that it's

00:11:29.200 --> 00:11:32.800
not the widest. Uh and they kind of make

00:11:30.959 --> 00:11:34.560
up for it for depth sensing. There's 500

00:11:32.800 --> 00:11:37.279
ft thermal detection range and then a

00:11:34.560 --> 00:11:39.519
200T AI detection range. Uh, and so it

00:11:37.279 --> 00:11:41.120
it goes pretty far, which is useful. And

00:11:39.519 --> 00:11:42.560
for the price that this comes in at, I'm

00:11:41.120 --> 00:11:44.320
actually pretty impressed at how clear

00:11:42.560 --> 00:11:45.680
the thermal camera footage is. All

00:11:44.320 --> 00:11:48.160
right, here's another one where it's

00:11:45.680 --> 00:11:51.040
like, am I a bad driver or was it a bad

00:11:48.160 --> 00:11:52.480
situation? Before David says anything

00:11:51.040 --> 00:11:53.760
watching this back, I will say the wide

00:11:52.480 --> 00:11:55.279
angle makes it look like there's more

00:11:53.760 --> 00:11:56.079
space. Maybe this is where I want less

00:11:55.279 --> 00:11:57.680
of a wide angle.

00:11:56.079 --> 00:11:59.200
>> So, when you're merging or when you're

00:11:57.680 --> 00:12:01.200
changing lanes, it's your responsibility

00:11:59.200 --> 00:12:04.320
to yield to the the traffic that's

00:12:01.200 --> 00:12:05.680
already there. So any if she doesn't

00:12:04.320 --> 00:12:07.279
leave you enough room where you have to

00:12:05.680 --> 00:12:09.760
slow down, that is on her. Yeah.

00:12:07.279 --> 00:12:10.399
>> Uh so you did okay on this one.

00:12:09.760 --> 00:12:12.160
>> All right.

00:12:10.399 --> 00:12:14.000
>> This rear camera is surprisingly sharp.

00:12:12.160 --> 00:12:14.880
Like it's really easy to see things and

00:12:14.000 --> 00:12:16.160
all the details.

00:12:14.880 --> 00:12:17.440
>> Here's one where at night you can see

00:12:16.160 --> 00:12:18.560
the license plates pretty good.

00:12:17.440 --> 00:12:19.120
>> Oh, that's super clear.

00:12:18.560 --> 00:12:20.399
>> Mhm.

00:12:19.120 --> 00:12:21.839
>> This has convinced me that I think it's

00:12:20.399 --> 00:12:25.040
time for me to get a dash cam.

00:12:21.839 --> 00:12:26.079
>> Okay, so here is a front rear clip

00:12:25.040 --> 00:12:27.519
driving through gas town. So there

00:12:26.079 --> 00:12:28.399
should be lots of people, lots of

00:12:27.519 --> 00:12:30.320
things.

00:12:28.399 --> 00:12:31.600
>> Maybe a little too bright. There we go.

00:12:30.320 --> 00:12:32.720
It actually does pretty okay on the

00:12:31.600 --> 00:12:34.240
contrast. Like the fact that there's so

00:12:32.720 --> 00:12:36.079
much light and dark and everything is

00:12:34.240 --> 00:12:37.120
still visible is pretty impressive.

00:12:36.079 --> 00:12:38.639
>> Boom. Did you clock those guys?

00:12:37.120 --> 00:12:39.360
>> Oh yeah, those are right. Predator.

00:12:38.639 --> 00:12:40.800
There they are.

00:12:39.360 --> 00:12:42.160
>> Oh, and I shouldn't forget if you're

00:12:40.800 --> 00:12:44.480
worried about hitting animals in the

00:12:42.160 --> 00:12:46.399
dark at night, worry no more. Van, that

00:12:44.480 --> 00:12:49.200
thermal camera will identify the animal

00:12:46.399 --> 00:12:51.120
and uh help you avoid hitting that deer.

00:12:49.200 --> 00:12:51.680
They sent over B-roll of what it looks

00:12:51.120 --> 00:12:54.160
like.

00:12:51.680 --> 00:12:55.680
>> All right, I'll leave you guys to um you

00:12:54.160 --> 00:12:58.560
know, found out a lot about myself here.

00:12:55.680 --> 00:13:01.200
I am going to sit quietly and think

00:12:58.560 --> 00:13:02.480
about things that I've done

00:13:01.200 --> 00:13:04.160
just like I'm going to be thinking about

00:13:02.480 --> 00:13:06.560
the value of this product. The Vantrew

00:13:04.160 --> 00:13:08.079
Pilot 2 starts at $500 right now on

00:13:06.560 --> 00:13:09.760
pre-order. That gets you the full camera

00:13:08.079 --> 00:13:12.160
system and a micro SD. You can order

00:13:09.760 --> 00:13:13.839
more, get slightly bigger discounts. Um,

00:13:12.160 --> 00:13:15.440
but that's that's it for ShortCircuit.

00:13:13.839 --> 00:13:17.040
That's our unboxing. If you want more

00:13:15.440 --> 00:13:19.200
dash cam content, why don't you check

00:13:17.040 --> 00:13:21.120
out the time that LTT compared a bunch

00:13:19.200 --> 00:13:24.160
of dash cams all at once? It's a very

00:13:21.120 --> 00:13:24.160
different vibe, but it's a good
