    Nooo! Question - in the settings, did you select auto re-write on the camera? - I cant remember what it is called exactly.
    In other words - is the card full, and therefore the camera cannot record any more?

    card is not full...I get blue light on when connected to USB power but no quick flash of yellow LED. tried charging it and still no luck, and cant get it to connect to the mssetup software, I have emailed eletoponline365 hope they can offer replacement or something but I don't fancy paying the shipping to china.

    If the item is faulty then you don't have to pay shipping costs to China. If they don't honour your statutory rights then contact your card provider/bank and open a dispute asap as there are strict time limits.

    I did this with a crook from China and got a full refund. The crook didn't elect to arrange collection of the item at his cost so it was disposed of, as advised by my bank.

    item cost was less than £100 so doubt credit card would get involved.
    otherwise RM price to post back is £12.50.....:mad: which is why i would normally not buy from Chinese sellers
    could i be cheeky and buy a 2 year square trade warranty via ebay for $10, as its still giving me that option on my selling history for the camera, even though i bought it in mid october.
  • China. If they don't honour your statutory rights
    Which statutory rights are those ?

    Seems only buying on credit card can help ?

    Ive got one of those £20 cheepos from E-Bay, Its "Ok ish" but no better than that, hopeless at night just blobs of light, & even in the day you cant read No Plates unless your stopped within about 30' or less. The worse thing I find is they need to be high on the W/S, which means the cable has to be routed around the w/s (had to buy longer cable,) also when U use Sat Nav have to have 2 feeds. I also found it interferes with the radio.
    Anyone found an easy way to route the cable round W/S tried Blu Tack, but it just looks cheap & melt in hot weather.

    Just to let everyone know that the Eprance 0801 recommended by Techmoan is available from Amazon UK (sold by Eprance but fulfilled by Amazon). So you don't have to wait for overseas delivery and Amazon are more likely to refund in the event of problems.

    The Mobius is also listed on Amazon UK but currently out of stock, but available from one UK seller.
