Leedsman, I've read quite a few of your threads and I know from some that I've read that you are very knowledgeable with electronics. I particularly liked your response to a thread I saw recently on another Voyager forum where you suggested:

Tip: These mysterious gremlins in the micro's operation can often be fixed by wiring a 30,000 microfarad capacitor at 16volt working or higher directly across the battery with a 10amp fuse in series,(essential fire safety/fire prevention), using common alligator/crocodile clips. Be careful, these are POLARIZED, so only one way round pls. Such things can be got from your local ham-shack, computer workstation etc. In fact the man could be bribable to make you one if it's not your thing. Shouldn't cost more than a tenner all told.

I wish I'd know about that when I owned a Ford Cougar V6. It suffered on occasions from losing power when accelerating but it was very intermittent. A few years after I'd sold mine on my son bought one and his suffered the same problem. The Ford dealers never did find out what the problem was. I suspect your mod could have fixed it.

BTW 1 -- I'll take your word for that. I don't know enough about electronics. :O( However, these cameras are powered through a micro USB port so for in-car use, a 4pin USB Type A-male to 5pin USB Type B Micro-male cable connected to a USB adapter which plugs into the cigarette lighter/auxillary power socket is the easiest way to go.

BTW 2 -- and they are mostly NTSC 30 pps not 25 pps PAL but that doesn't matter when playing back on a PC.

BTW 3 -- The 808 #16 doesn't have a way of mounting it other than a strip of Velcro that comes with it. Note that the 808 #16 isn't supplied as an in-car camera but it's cheap, discrete and excellent picture quality. Most of the cameras specifically designed for in-car use do come with a standard camera mount.
