Yes it can take 128 gb. Format it in the dash can.

 

According to the vendor, 64GB is the largest supported card, it may operate with a 128GB card, but it is not supported by the vendor if you have issues.

 

listen to frosty the snow man

 

hahaha

 

I bought a 32gb card with it and it fills up so fast (wish u could lower to 720) anyway I have a few 128gb cards I no longer use so I'm gonna give a shot soon and see how it works

 

im using a samsung evo 128gb (orange card)
for a month now. so far so good.

You can format on the computer you just have to do it FAT32 but you will need to use a program to format rather than whats available with the computer.

 

Like everyone else already said, it does work and for me it gives me the longer recording time that I need, using what bigboston mentioned which is what Vantrue recommends: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06XWM99NP/?tag=ubne0c-20

I'm also using this bracket to be rid of the suction-cup, and mount the dashcam to the stem of my rear view mirror (it may not work on some of the very thick mirrors that have short stems, like in BMWs)

Anybody have any issues yet with using the 128 gb card?

 

I'm using the exact card I mentioned above in my N2 Pro, with no issues.

How old is your N2? Perhaps 128GB doesn't work on older N2 Pro hardware? Also, make sure you have the most current firmware.

 

128Gb card is ok to go,and suggest format it as FAT32 by Windows with Guiformat tool!

 

You should use this Guiformat tool to format it as FAT32 by your Windows computer!

The note that is on page 5 of the N2 Pro manual that says to format a 64GB card on a computer, however this is from before the current firmware version.

I had already contacted Vantrue's support to verify, and they said there's no longer a need to format on a computer with the current firmware version, and that the dashcam itself allows you to format on its own. I do have the current version, and it's been formatting my 128GB cards with no issues. Just now I also formatted a 64GB card in the dashcam to test, also no issues.

Current firmware version (as of today) for the N2 Pro is here http://www.vantrue.net/Support/detail/id/68.html, and its manual is here http://www.vantrue.net/Support/detail/id/35.html.

Page 18 covers the update, but it doesn't really detail much. The process is easy: download the firmware file A95LYD.bin (latest as of today) from link above, and copy the file to the top folder (root directory) of the SD card. Put the card back in the dashcam and turn it on, it should see the file and update on its own (screen stays blank longer than usual). Once the update is done, go into the menus, then into SYSTEM SETUP, then into SYSTEM INFO, and verify it shows as version VTN2Pro8C.V10 like below. Finally, delete the firmware file from the card so the dashcam won't keep detecting it (or format the card if you don't need its contents).

Thanks KD!

I just got done setting up my N2 with a 256 GB card. Went smooth as butter on a hot day.

Formatted on Windows 10 before using this; https://www.disk-partition.com/free-partition-manager.html Not sure I even had to after reading your post but works/worked fine so all good.

HeHe, it's Friday. I might offer to send drunks their vids so they see how "cool" they are. LoL. (I hate drunks and are one)

 

258 GB Danny could you able to trace your videos. I can't that is recording old videos. I am having trouble with 128 gb.

 

Should work with a 256Gb card, just format the card in the camera.

 

I'm using a 256GB card with zero issues. Lasts all day driving without starting to overwrite.

What trouble are you having with your 128GB card?
And, what exact brand and model is your 128GB card?

 

Just update the firmware in your Vanture N2 Pro via their website and it'll handle up to 256gb just fine.

worked for me too.

 

Looks like they support up to 256Gb... why do you want so much?

 

For those longer days...Plus you should save the videos for at least 10 days for fare disputes...
Western Digital 2TB Elements Portable External Hard Drive - USB 3.0 - WDBU6Y0020BBK-WESN

 

Yea Vantrue site lists up to 256GB.

https://www.vantrue.net/Goods/detail/gid/29.html#parameter-con

I believe I'm running 128gb Samsung with no issues.

 

As others have said, 256GB is supported as of the .V21 firmware.

Just an FYI, the .V29 firmware was released today. No capacity increase beyond 256GB, but other changes..

I'll check out the update in a week or so, I try to avoid updating immediately.

I see my suggestion of adding an indicator for the sd card capacity was not added. I'll have to email them again. Basically I want a bar showing how full the sd card is so I know when to swap it out before files get deleted.

I would appreciate everyone reading this post to go to the link and put in a request. The more that request it the better chance it gets added to the camera, even if you don't want it please put in a request, you never know when you will change your mind about it.

I down load my card almost every day I drive. 128g...

 

128g will give you about 10 hours of recording if you use both cameras....inside and out.
These are a couple of reasons to have a dash cam.

That's pretty much what I figured it to be, the packaging said 640 minutes video, I don't drive that long, so 1 is perfect. I wish I had gotten the Vantrue earlier, instead I went with a cheaper brand to start with and that piece broke in a month. They still have the stupid thing to fix it. Got the Vantrue a month ago because I got sick of waiting on the repair. If I get it back, I'll ebay the thing lol.

I'll try updating mine again but I think the internal battery is bust on mine. It used to keep resetting to 01/01/2017 and thusly overwriting itself since videos recorded on 01/01/2017 are the "oldest" videos on the damn thing... I finally updated it to the prior most recent update and all it did was change it so it resets to 01/01/2018 now... ?

 

If you leave it in your car while the car is off, it can overheat and reset. It happened to me today and it's not even that hot outside. Happens in the cold also. Always bring it in at the end of your shift And download the videos for 10 days in case there is a fare dispute.

 

Depending on your vehicle type, stick it somewhere in the back to record "traffic issues" behind you.
I did that on the recommendation of a Beverly Hills pax that turned out to be a personal injury lawyer.

I have mounted my old one direction camera in the rear window facing backwards. I don't save the footage from that one like I do from my main camera, however if something happens I'll have it.

 

I was reading some other thread where someone is using two N2 Pros, both mounted up front on the left and right. Seems like that would take care of the blind spots available to the riders when just using one cam, and also increase coverage angle of the outside view.

I would suggest using a high endurance card when recording constantly, unfortunately they max out at 128GB currently.

Honestly, the thing is garbage. I had to reset it every couple of days. The reason it's sent off for repair is because it stopped resetting. Got stuck on the warning/load screen

Looks like they fixed a bug from the previous firmware.

 

Darn, I was hoping to see a memory card capacity level added.

I'll have to email them again from my 7 different email accounts.
