Significant voltage drops and spikes. Is this normal?

I'm getting these constant drops and spikes constantly. They seem to correspond to the times I'm starting the car (Skoda Octavia 2024, mild hybrid) but sometimes it looks like I get a drop even when the car is parked (It's quite hard to navigate the graph, I couldn't find a way to zoom or pan).

Is this normal? A lot of images I've seen of DDPAI voltage monitors look a lot cleaner than this.

Thank you.

my sd card was dead and i had no idea but the cam still had the footage??

alright so some bloke reversed into me at a coles car park last week. nothing major just cracked the bumper but obviously he tried saying it was my fault. went to grab the footage off my n5 dual to send to insurance and the sd card was completely cooked. like the cam wasnt even writing to it anymore and i had no clue how long that had been going on. nearly lost it. then i remembered something about built in storage when i was setting it up months ago. checked the app and the clip was literally just sitting there. the cam saved it automatically onto some internal memory. i dont even fully understand how it works i just know it saved my arse. does everyone know about this or was i the only idiot who didnt read the manual lol

What specifically made you go with DDPAI over the other brands?

curious about this because there are so many dash cam brands now that all look pretty similar on paper. viofo, 70mai, blackvue, thinkware, vantrue... the list keeps growing.

when you were shopping around what was the thing that actually made you pull the trigger on ddpai specifically? was it a feature, the price, a recommendation from someone, or did you just stumble across it randomly?

no wrong answers here just genuinely curious what the deciding factor was for everyone. helps new members who are still on the fence too.

Need help connecting my DDPAI dashcam to the ddpai app via Wi-Fi.

I recently installed my DDPAI dashcam and now I'm trying to connect it to the DDPAI app so I can view and download my recordings on my phone.

I'm a bit confused about the setup process.

How do I connect my phone to the dashcam's Wi-Fi?

Do I need to stay connected to the dashcam's Wi-Fi while watching or downloading videos?

Will the videos show up automatically in the app once it's connected?

Are there any settings I should enable first to make the connection smoother?

Z60 Pro dual-channel - no screen off button?

Turns out the 4th button (Screen Off/On on single-channel) becomes "Switch Camera" once you add the rear cam. So there's no button to just turn off the screen while driving in dual-channel mode. Anyone found a workaround?

DDPAI Camera Reset Loop

Hi everybody,

So I’ve made a purchase of DDPAI N5 dash camera for my car a few months back. After a while, the camera started to reset itself during the entire ride. Now it even has issues powering up successfully at ignition time - takes about 10-15 retries till it completes (the auto voice is stuck on “hello”).
I’ve tried upgrading the FW to the latest version but it didn’t seem to solve the issue.
Any ideas?
