About the BlackVue DR970X-2CH Plus II

From our tech experts at CEN

The BlackVue DR970X-2CH Plus II is a two-channel dash cam recording 4K Ultra HD (3840 x 2160) at 30 fps at the front and Full HD (1920 x 1080) at 30 fps at the rear. It has HDR, a STARVIS 2 front sensor, built-in GPS and GLONASS, dual-band 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz Wi-Fi, and cloud connectivity. A microSD card is included, with support for cards up to 512 GB.

Who it suits

This suits drivers who want 4K front recording with simultaneous rear coverage on a 12 V or 24 V vehicle. For front-only 4K recording, the DR970X-1CH Plus II is the single-channel option.

Our tech experts advise

The rear camera connection cable and double-sided tape for the mounting brackets are both in the box. Parking mode requires hardwiring, and the 3-wire hardwiring cable is also included. We fit 2-channel dash cams at our Beeston workshop from £100 — see our dash cam installation page for details.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What SD card do I need for this dash cam?

A: Use a high-endurance microSD card designed for continuous recording. Standard cards wear out quickly in dash cams. CEN stocks suitable high-endurance cards, and the maximum supported capacity is listed in the Specification tab.

Q: Does this dash cam record while the car is parked?

A: Parking mode is listed in the Specification tab. Where supported, it requires constant power from either a hardwire kit or a dedicated dash cam battery pack, both of which CEN stocks.

Q: Do I need to hardwire the dash cam?

A: Not necessarily. All dash cams work from the 12V socket for drive recording. Hardwiring hides the cabling and enables parking mode, and CEN offers professional hardwire installation from our Nottingham premises.

Q: Will the footage be accepted by my insurer or the police?

A: Dash cam footage is widely used in insurance claims and can be submitted to most UK police forces through their online portals. Recording quality matters, so check the resolution in the Specification tab.

Q: Front only or front and rear - which should I choose?

A: A front camera covers the most common claim scenarios. A two-channel system adds rear coverage for rear-end collisions and tailgating evidence, which is where many disputed claims arise. Three-channel systems add an interior view, suited to taxi and fleet use.

Q: What resolution does the BlackVue DR970X-2CH Plus II record?

A: The front camera records 4K (3840 x 2160) at 30 fps and the rear camera records Full HD (1920 x 1080) at 30 fps.

Q: Is a hardwiring cable included with the DR970X-2CH Plus II?

A: Yes. The box includes a hardwiring power cable for parking mode, plus a USB-C power cable and USB-C 12V adapter, the rear camera connection cable and a microSD card.

Q: What size memory card does the DR970X-2CH Plus II support?

A: It supports microSD cards up to 512GB. A microSD card is included in the box.
