Some rules about ordering stuff online

1. Never order anything while you're drunk, stoned or high...lol, instead wait till sober or in 'normal state'.

All deals seem great and excellent when drunk, stoned or high.

If can still justify buying when sober, than do so, if not, than be glad you waited.

Thinking about getting this Sony, lower end priced camcorder next



The man in this video is living life to the fullest, they're both a musician and tech person, and blend them both seamlessly...they're living life to the fullest, when you do that you really don't have time to get sad, when your surround yourself with positive people who value you, life just means a lot more...is why I felt like sharing this guys video, cause seeing them live such a 'rich' life kind of motivated me.

You can spend hours doing research on these products



You can spend dozens of hours doing research on these products, so I'm doing some for you now.

We all hate ordering stuff that looks so shiny and promising in videos, or on Amazon, ext, just to get product and it fails right out the package, I mean who has time to re package, send back, and then wait another 8 weeks to get replacement?

Is why so important to get right the first time, is why I so appreciate people who go out of their way to review products for the rest of us.

Some get paid to do so, I don't.

The above video is for if you're a truck driver, and they recommend 5 brands that are better suited for truck drivers.

In the end, I think I'm going to buy 2, yes 2...one good one, and one 'value market one'.

Hear me?

Why not just get 2, a more top end one, and then a cheaper one for under 50 bucks, that way if one fails, you have another on stand by...or may have dual uses for both.

Anyways, about to place order...will come back and tell which two I decided to purchase and why.
I think one of my purchases may be in above video.

Well both of my newly ordered, yet to be tried dash cams have arrived.

I won't have time to thoroughly figure them out until next round of off days.

But they're both here now, so a step closer to 'camming up' on all fronts.

I figured best to order 2, a higher end brand and a lesser end brand.

The lesser end brand I bought with rear camera view.

Hours of uneventul driving I'm sure, until that one moment...that's what you get them for.

ApeMan C550



This is one of two dashcams I bought, right now about to set up.
I have short patients when it comes to setting stuff up, reading the directions and stuff makes me feel like I'm in school, and school bored the hell out of me, still does.

But to make sure equipment operates properly, you must read the directions.

Any how, about to test this device out.

I also got rear camera kit or extension, not even sure why now, I mean it's not like I'm James Bond 007.

I tend to buy stuff that looks cool, then once I get I'm like 'Why did I get this?.

But I paid under $50.00 for this so why not give it a try, I tell myself.

Some tips and notes

Some tips and notes about 'camming up'.

If you decide to purchse these things, as I have, as in body cam, dash cam and more, you have to take care of them, you have to make sure their 'ready to go' when ready to use.

1. delete unused files often, every day if possible, that way less chance of storage filling up, you must get in the habit of doing this.

2. Make sure device charged, for instance my dash cam runs on car power, has internal battery as well though, but the Muvi body cam I have only runs battery power, so must keep this in mind and make sure charged, I think goes for about 2 hours of straight filming.

3. Get a camera bag and try to keep all cam devices together, and instruction in bag as well, may have to refer back to instructions until learn functionality of devices.

And that's basically it, so far all the devices I have work fine, Dash cam from 'Ape Man', and body cam from 'Muvi', and even ordered a Sony camcorder, but rarely use, cause dash cam and body cam give me all the video I need so far.

Here's another thing

Get in the habit of using all the time, cause that's what 'you' got it for, for it's the minute, even second, that you forget to charge battery, or forget to empty memory card, or leave cam at home, that's the minute or second that once in a life time event occurs, either to another, in front of you, or to yourself, and you'll forever be upset if did not capture the moment, for legal reasons, identify reasons, or just 'cool video' moment reasons.

But for the most part nothing ever happens, all you do is capture ordinary people doing ordinary things.

With my body cam, I'm sure people think I'm LEO, and I'm not, but even them thinking that is form of protection, but to me, everyone should have a body cam.

And I noticed when driving around, hardly anyone has dashcam either, why not???

I mean in this day and age, I can't believe more people don't have dashcams in car, or security cameras outside of home and so forth, what's wrong with people?

Also with body cam, if you think you're being followed, like when you think you keep seeing same person, same clothing, in different stores your at, than when you get home, can review footage and see.

Body cams cover you in so many ways, so do dash cams with forward and rear facing cameras, I mean if you keep seeing same car follow you, you can document it and so forth.

Everyone should think safety, not just cops, cause now days if something does happen, depending on where you live, no telling when they'll show up, if at all.

here's some narly dash cam footage.

Remote wireless outdoor/indoor security cam that can be viewed from cell phone while away



Yes, I kind of want this now, I want security camera I can view while away, I mean what good does it do to come home, things broken into, and view footage later, when could of viewed it real time and call the authorities or whomever.

I want one on my front door for sure, but worried if put in easy to grab place, someone could just rip it down and steal it.

And in video, as you'll see if watch, camera way bigger than it looks on Amazon.

Things bigger than your fist, kind of 'loud' if you ask me, I thought they'd be much smaller, and maybe some are, just gotta continue searching.

But this one is cool, cause can swivel up, down, rotate 360.

I just want peace of mind.

And I realize just having a security cam won't protect you, in fact some times could get you in more trouble.

Like if criminal thinks your camera may have captured them doing something illegal, than that criminal might then want to 'find you', like in the movies...but sure it happens in real life also, especially where I stay.

I'm just tired of not knowing who's at the door until you open it, and small door peep hole can't do much.

Back area is covered, but nothing on front door, so will probably order one of these things within days, maybe not this particulary model, but there's lots more designs and models I may like better.

I mean if more people used common sense and got cameras, it would detour so much crime, and solve some as well.

What's wrong with people, why won't more people get cameras, especially if live in hood area or rough areas of city.

I can't believe in 2020, so many people don't have home/apartment/trailer/shed ect, equipted with security cameras....ones you can view remotely...don't you value your safety?
