Vantrue Element 2 dual channel Dashcam - Full Review

Vantrue contacted me to review their Element 2 dual channel dashcam. Seems to be a pretty solid camera system with a lot of great features. Check out the timestamps below and in the video itself to jump to the parts you're interested in.

As of November 5, 2022, you can purchase this camera system from Amazon for about $190 with a coupon.

The only other thing you need is a good quality microSD card. DO NOT use regular SanDisk cards - only their High Endurance cards. Other good cards are Samsung Evo and Vantrue's own cards.

I did not pay for this camera system in the review, but I was not paid any money either. The amazon link is NOT an affiliate link - I don't make any money off this. My only payment was the camera system itself.

FYI - I rendered the video in 4k so that it won't lose much detail - that way youtube won't compress and degrade the quality of the dashcam footage.
