Blackvue DR970X-1CH64PLII 4K UHD In-Car Drive Recorder with 64GB

Blackvue DR970X-1CH64PLII 4K UHD In-Car Drive Recorder with 64GB

Single-channel 4K Ultra HD dash camera with 8.4MP STARVIS 2 CMOS front sensor, 146° ultrawide viewing angle, dual-band 2.4/5GHz Wi-Fi, intelligent parking mode monitoring, and auto impact and motion detection — with optional 4G LTE connectivity module for remote access.

Product Overview

The Blackvue DR970X-1CH64PLII is a premium single-channel 4K Ultra HD in-car drive recorder delivering exceptional forward recording clarity through an 8.4-megapixel Sony STARVIS 2 CMOS sensor. The STARVIS 2 sensor provides outstanding low-light sensitivity, capturing clear, detailed footage in challenging lighting conditions including dawn, dusk, tunnels, and night driving — where conventional dash cameras typically struggle.

The 146° ultrawide forward viewing angle ensures comprehensive coverage of the road ahead and surrounding environment in a single channel, while 4K Ultra HD resolution preserves fine detail including number plates, road signs, and incident specifics at full clarity. Dual-band 2.4GHz and 5GHz Wi-Fi enables fast wireless connection to the BlackVue app for footage review, settings management, and live view without removing the SD card.

Intelligent parking mode monitoring activates auto impact and motion detection while the vehicle is stationary, recording relevant events and preserving footage for review after the vehicle is unattended. An optional 4G LTE connectivity module (sold separately) adds remote live streaming, GPS tracking, and cloud connectivity for fleet and security applications.

Note: 64GB storage is included. An optional 4G LTE module is available separately for remote connectivity features. A hardwire kit is recommended for parking mode operation (sold separately). Three-year warranty included.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the difference between STARVIS 2 and standard CMOS sensors?

A: Sony STARVIS 2 is an advanced back-illuminated CMOS sensor technology designed specifically for superior low-light imaging performance. Compared to conventional CMOS sensors, STARVIS 2 delivers significantly improved sensitivity in low-light conditions, producing clearer, less noisy footage in night driving, tunnels, and poorly lit environments where standard sensors would produce dark or grainy video.

Q: Does parking mode require a hardwire kit?

A: Intelligent parking mode monitoring requires continuous low-voltage power supply to the dash camera while the vehicle is parked. While the vehicle's cigarette lighter or USB port may be used, a dedicated hardwire kit connected to the vehicle's fuse box is recommended for reliable parking mode operation without draining the vehicle battery. The hardwire kit typically includes a low-voltage cutoff to protect battery health.

Q: What does the optional 4G LTE module add?

A: The optional 4G LTE connectivity module adds remote access capabilities to the DR970X, including remote live streaming of the front camera feed, GPS location tracking, push notifications for impact and motion events, and cloud storage integration via the BlackVue Cloud platform. The module is sold separately and requires an active SIM card and data plan.

Q: Is 64GB enough storage for extended recording?

A: Recording capacity depends on resolution settings and loop recording configuration. At 4K Ultra HD, 64GB provides several hours of continuous recording before the oldest footage is overwritten by loop recording. For extended parking mode coverage or longer trips, additional or higher-capacity MicroSD storage may be beneficial — contact F.A.E. for compatible storage options.

Q: Is this a single-channel or dual-channel recorder?

A: The DR970X-1CH64PLII is a single-channel recorder capturing front-facing footage only. For front and rear recording coverage, a dual-channel Blackvue model with a separate rear camera would be required. Contact F.A.E. for dual-channel Blackvue options if rear recording is a requirement.
