CHOICE OF REAR OR INTERIOR CAMERA! |

DR900X-2CH-PLUS Front + Rear-Facing Camera System |
DR900X-2CH-IR-PLUS Front + Interior-Facing Camera System |
||
"Front + Rear" dashcams are designed to record both in front of and behind your vehicle at the same time. Thanks to the small size of the second camera, this secondary lens may be placed just about anywhere throughout the vehicle, but in most cases, the second camera is mounted in the rear windshield and points out towards the rear (to capture events that occur behind the vehicle). |
"Front + Inside" dashcams are designed to record both in front of and INSIDE your vehicle at the same time. Fleet vehicle owners, concerned parents of a new teenage driver, taxi and rideshare, tow truck, or shuttle bus drivers, these are just a few examples where there may be a need to keep an eye on the driver or passengers of the vehicle, as well as the other cars on the road. |
||
The rear camera boasts Full HD 1080p recording with a Sony STARVIS™ sensor, for optimal image quality during the day and in low-light conditions as well capturing important information such as license plate info. Being able to capture footage from the front and rear of your vehicle is a huge benefit to those involved in traffic accidents. and can be the difference between winning or losing an insurance claim.
|
The interior camera not only records in Full HD 1080p but packs a Sony STARVIS™ sensor and infrared lighting to ensure nothing is missed no matter what the lighting condition is. The interior camera is designed exclusively for recording the driver/occupants INSIDE your vehicle's interior. It is NOT intended to record video facing out the REAR of the vehicle. |
Seamless Pairing with the BlackVue App
New with the PLUS series is Seamless Pairing with the BlackVue App providing effortless setup and configuration. Easily connect to your dashcam without leaving the BlackVue App. Once connected changing settings, browsing files, and accessing the cloud is a breeze.
Packed With Additional Features
The DR900X-2CH-PLUS is of course still fully functional as a 'typical' dash cam, recording at all times when you drive, whether you choose to utilize the optional LTE / Cloud features or not:
- When plugged in to your standard power outlet in the vehicle, the system will still power on and off with the vehicle, automatically recording audio, video and GPS speed & location at all times as you drive.
- For motion detection ("parking mode") recording, the DR900X-2CH-PLUS can be hardwired directly to the vehicle's electrical system via the included direct-wire cable, a new value-added feature of the BlackVue "X" series. No need for a separate Power Magic Pro! Alternatively, the DR900X-2CH-PLUS can also be powered by the BlackVue B-124X Battery Pack while the vehicle is parked.
- All normal driving and parking mode recordings are automatically stored locally on the internal BlackVue memory card (32/64/128/256 GB options available). Once the memory card is completely 'full', only the oldest video file on the card is overwritten as each new video file is created (this is known as loop recording).
- The memory card can be removed from the 900X and plugged in to your PC or Mac using the included microSD to USB adapter. This is an easy way to do a bulk download or backup of all your videos.
- The DR900X-2CH-PLUS does not have a screen on it from which to play back recorded videos from the memory card. Thankfully, the recordings can be accessed via a direct WiFi connection. You can connect to the 900X with your smartphone the same way you would connect to a WiFi network at home or at Starbucks, then use the free BlackVue app to view and download your recordings directly from the camera.
- Audio recording, on by default, can be disabled temporarily, or turned off completely by default.
- GPS speed display can be disabled from being visible in your video recordings.
- Everything you need to use the system is included in the box: front camera with adhesive windshield mount, rear camera with mount, BlackVue memory card, plug-in power cable, video cable between the front and rear cameras, etc.
Enter: BlackVue Over the Cloud
With the BlackVue Over-the-Cloud service, accessible by plugging in the optional LTE module, or by pairing the 900X to an existing WiFi hotspot signal in (or near) the vehicle, you're all set to utilize the amazing features that come with having a BlackVue cloud account. Learn more about the BlackVue Over-the-Cloud features and the free and paid account offerings here.
It's important to note that even with an active cloud account, not ALL recordings created by your 900X dash cam are sent up to the Cloud automatically. Not only is it typically unnecessary (for most drivers) to have a Cloud backup of literally every second of normal driving or parking mode videos, but uploading each and every recording to the Cloud via LTE would simply consume too much data to be feasible. For example, a 2 hour drive could easily generate 20 GB+ of video files on the memory card, so you can see how trying to send this much data to the Cloud would quickly burn up tons and tons of data allocation. Even on "unlimited" data plans, you may discover they are not truly unlimited in what you are allowed to do with them (see your carrier/plan for specifics).
With that being said, BlackVue has solved this problem by automatically uploading "important" files to the Cloud for you! During normal driving, or when parked, if an "event" triggers the correct sensor thresholds, that video is going to be backed up to the Cloud immediately, so that you can access the video later. Pretty slick!
New for the "900X-PLUS" Series: Optional LTE Connectivity and HotSpot Module
BlackVue has made it much easier to "get on the cloud", thanks to the new CM100LTE module. This optional "plug and play" add-on device connects to the front camera of the DR900X-2CH-PLUS and not only provides a data path up to the internet for your camera but can now turn your camera into a mobile hotspot for up to five devices (X-PLUS series only)! You can still use a built-in WiFi hotspot signal (if already present in your vehicle), but this 4G LTE module is superior due to being able to stay powered on while parked, when most in-vehicle WiFi hotspots turn off with the engine.
The CM100LTE connects via the USB port of your dashcam. Your DR900X-2CH-PLUS powers the module and automatically accesses the Cloud when the module is plugged in. A valid Nano SIM card is required to utilize the CM100LTE module. More information coming soon.

A Note on Memory Cards
All BlackVue dashcams include a BlackVue-branded 32, 64, 128 or 256 GB memory card. While the memory cards are removable and the card slots will accept other brands of memory cards, we strongly suggest the use of only BlackVue memory cards in the BlackVue dashcams, as the use of a non-BlackVue memory card may cause performance issues and may void your manufacturer’s warranty.
BlackVue OEM memory cards are industrial-grade VNAND-type microSD cards and are designed and tested to withstand the extreme temperatures, vibrations and the constant read/write cycles of high quality dashcams. Typical consumer-grade memory cards such as those from SanDisk are simply not up to the task. Stick with the OEM BlackVue memory cards to ensure your dashcams are always recording when it matters most.

The Bottom Line
What's not to love? The price, perhaps. We do have other options that save you big but don't sacrifice much in terms of features and functionality, such as the DR750X-2CH-PLUS (dual 1080p instead of 4K/1080p) or DR590X-2CH (dual 1080p, no GPS built-in). But, if your budget allows, the DR900X-2CH-PLUS could definitely be a contender for "the best" dash cam we offer for sale currently!
12 Volt & Beyond is an official North American (USA, Mexico, Canada) distributor of the BlackVue product line. Beware of unauthorized or grey-market third-party sellers!

This thing is PACKED with features. I love it so much. I added the LTE module and I can view it from my phone at all times to make sure my baby is safe and sound parked outside. Highly recommended. #TEAMBLACKVUE
