Thanks for setting this up… I ordered one a couple weeks ago and installed it today. Working great so far.
One question though: I've set the options to turn off the lights on it -- but the front cam still flashes the WiFi logo, and the rear still has a white light on it. Any way to turn those off? Really don't want to draw attention to it when parked...

I also got in on this deal and installed it last week. As for the lights, try reformatting the SD card and redoing the configuration. I had the same situation with the lights yesterday and that seems to have fixed it.
By default it will record audio and video. You can easily turn off the audio recording if you like.

Not quite. The website says you can move files to the cloud. I guess it's NAS, but manually operated.

No, it is not a NAS. It is blackvue's own cloud storage, they provide 10gig for free. Since it is in beta, they haven't announced pricing

I was wondering the same thing.........I sing too much and it ain't good!
I noticed one of the vid clips posted had audio.

For people who have recently purchased, are you installing this system yourself or having it professional done? If professional, how much did you pay?

Have the camera installed now and loving it. I would like to obtain the polarized filters that you had a group buy on in 2015. Do you know if the discount you set up for those is still active? Do you recommend the filters?

I, too, have my camera installed now, and I'm very happy with it. Looking at the videos, I can definitely understand why the polarizing filter would be nice to have, but I'm just not sure I'm ready to spend 45 bucks on it. But maybe...
I can't imagine the discount code is still active, but feel free to write to that company.
I believe I stopped using the filters because they did, to some extent, darken everything, and if I recall correctly I think I decided that I'd prefer the reflection to the darkening. I may have made that decision in haste, though, and it's probably something I should revisit.

My BlackVue has already saved me some aggravation. I was rear-ended a couple weeks ago and the other driver took off. I was able to catch up to him and caught his tag information on my BlackVue. The officer who came to take the hit-and-run report was very impressed that I had not only the driver's tag info, but also video of the accident itself. WITH mapping (from the GPS) of precisely where it happened and how fast I was going when he hit me.
This one incident has more than covered the cost of the cameras and installation - since the other driver's insurance company will have to pay for the damages, I won't be out the collision deductible as I would have been if my insurance company had to pay.
