The Mobius ActionCam is a multi-purpose action camera that works perfectly as a car camera, thanks to it’s size, accessories and the option of loop recording and auto start/stop. We’re offering a ready to go dash cam version of this camera which is pre-configured with the latest firmware and setup to run as a car camera out of the box. We’re also offering the option of lenses at no extra cost. Choose from either a standard lens Lens A2), which has an 85° viewing angle to give a crisp image without distortion, or a wide angle lens (Lens D) which has a 120° viewing angle, capturing more action with a slight fish-eye effect.
The dual camera bundle comes with two Mobius cameras, an extra long 5m cable for mounting in the rear and a dual USB port car cigarette lighter adapter (if you prefer, you can opt for 2 single USB port adapters should your car have an extra cigarette lighter socket in the back or boot – contact us when you place your order). These extra accessories mean you can have two cameras running at the same time to capture video evidence in front of you and from behind.
The Mobius ActionCam is tiny and very light and provides full HD 1080p video at 30fps with fantastic quality to really capture the detail you need including number plates. The lens comes with the popular WDR (Wide Dynamic Range) making for great quality in low-light conditions. The camera does also provide HD quality 720p at 60fps but for dash cam use, we recommend 1080p at 30fps.
The camera comes with a built-in battery which lasts up to 2 hours so you can run the camera out of the car to take photos or even take it with you snowboarding! The Mobius ActionCam makes a great dash cam with loop recording (clips last 3 minutes each but this can be changed) with a 1 second overlap so you don’t lose out on any video. The auto start/stop feature means the camera will power on and start recording automatically when you turn the car ignition on. Likewise, it will also power off and stop recording once you turn the car ignition off.
The Mobius Action Camera is a fantastic little camera without the advanced features and controls you see on other dash cams. That said, it does the most important thing, recording the road ahead, better than most other cameras on the market. Plus, you can use it for many other things!
Choosing your rear mount
If you are mounting the rear camera to the windscreen and your windscreen is very steep then you will need the suction mount. The suction mount allows you to mount the camera at a steeper angle compared to the adhesive mount.
Read more information on how we pre-configure the Mobius as a car camera.
Please note that the Mobius camera has been known to interfere with DAB radio reception in some vehicles so if your DAB radio is important to you then we would recommend an alternative camera.
Hardwire Kit
The hardwire kit we recommend for the Mobius is the 12V Cigarette Lighter Power Socket Adapter with the Piggyback Fuse Holder. You will only require 1 hardwire kit for the dual bundle. For the Piggyback Fuse Holder you need to choose from a Mini or Standard fuse type.
