Overview

Thinkware U1000 RADAR

RADAR enables extended parking mode for the Thinkware U1000.

The Thinkware RADAR is an optional radar motion detection module designed to enhance the dash cam’s Energy Saving Parking Mode 2.0 with ultra-high frequency radar motion detection and buffered recording.

*Energy Saving Parking Mode "Enabled" is required for RADAR motion detection.

When paired with a Cellink NEO Battery Pack, parking mode run-time can be extended to up to 170 hours (7 days).

Features

Ultra High Frequency Radar

The Thinkware U1000 RADAR is designed to be used when the dash cam is on Energy Saving Parking Mode 2.0.

*Energy Saving Parking Mode 2.0 is supported on the Thinkware U1000 dash cam.

When RADAR detects a moving object within the range, the dash cam will switch into Recording Standby Mode and impact detection is set for 30 seconds.

Energy Saving Mode 2.0

If an impact has been made within 30 seconds, the dash cam will save 20 seconds video of before and after the impact.

Without the RADAR, the Energy Saving Mode will trigger recording only after an impact has been made, leaving you without any pre-event evidence.

If no impact is detected within the 30-seconds, the dash cam will automatically switch back to Energy Saving mode and no recording is stored.

Disclaimer

Radar motion detection requires optional module, and only enabled in energy saving mode.
Due to nature of the radar’s Ultra-high Frequency and the surroundings of vehicles, the distance and degree of detection may vary.
The radar is designed to detect sedan or larger sized vehicles. It may not detect smaller objects (such as people or bicycles).
To ensure proper functionality, please install Radar Sensor away from anything metallic or other sensors.

Excellent Purchase and Service from BlackBoxMyCar

This radar module was a great addition to my Thinkware U1000 dash cam system. The setup was very straight forward and this accessory is a must for passive parking mode. BlackBoxMyCar helped me with decision to make this smart purchase through the help with one of there representatives on live chat. Their customer support team is world class and very helpful.

Love the products and the site from I purchased

Awesome service! best Dash Cam you can ever get!

I've had the camera for about a week installed and it is the best investment you can have on your car.
4K camera is super clear and wide angle views from front and rear! Super easy to install and easy to set up!! Thank you guy! Recommended more people to you guys for dash cams!

Hi Andy, thanks for leaving a review. Don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions in the future :)

Excellent quality

Great camera system. I have been using Thinkware for 5 years and they consistently have the best dash camera systems out there and this one is no different. This is my second purchase from BBMC and it could not have been easier. I did have a problem in that I had to buy a longer length of wire to hardwire the Cellink Neo but I was actually anticipating this. Overall I'm once again very satisfied.

Hi Christopher, thanks for purchasing from BlackboxMyCar! Let us know if you need anything else in the future. Come back anytime!

Video cable

Perfect fit and service.

Hi William, thanks for purchasing from BlackboxMyCar. In regards to your other review, we've reached out accordingly! Glad to know that our team was able to solve the issue for you.

Great after sale support

Not only am I happy with the dash cam but more happy with the phone support I received on 2 occasions after I ran into some issues with my hardwire installation. Both support reps were real people not located in some far away call center. Both reps were very knowledgeable and answered all of my questions. Will be utilizing BBMC for all future dash cam needs!

Hi flrebroker, thanks for purchasing from BlackboxMyCar. We're here to help! Do let us know in the future if you need anything else :)

Fastest Shipping EVER!!!

I ordered my dash cam, and it shipped out on the same day. It then travelled half of the country in one day and was delivered the next day. Beat that Amazon!

Hi Nick, you know it! That's our rocket-fast shipping for you. Take that, Amazon!

Nice and quick Service

a brand name is built with years of consistent good service and reputation. keep up a good work!!

Hi Kevin, thanks for buying from BlackboxMyCar!

Worked out fine...

Took three tries to get correct fuse taps not viofo or black box fault. Be nice if they shipped with based on vehicle type.

Hi Stephen, glad it worked out for you. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out to us at BlackboxMyCar!

Came so quick!

I wrecked the cable that came with my unit so I needed to order a replacement! It came to my door in under 3 days. And this is during the COVID-19 outbreak! Absolutely amazed with the turn around time and the product is great. Thanks again!!!

Hi Matthew, you know it. We're trying our best to keep it business as usual ;) Thanks for purchasing from BlackboxMyCar!

Less Strain On Car Battery (2020 Hyundai Kona Ultimate)

It has been 4 days since the installation of the Cellink NEO Battery, serviced by a fantastic installation team. The NEO gives me an ease of mind knowing that it has added an extra 13-15 hours of running time to my Dual Channel Thinkware U-1000 dash cam system whilst my vehicle is turned off (parking mode). First off, it has been less stressful for me when starting my car because I don't see the "Battery Discharged" warning anymore, knowing that the NEO has put less strain on my car battery. Additionally, with a 40 minute drive-to-charge time frame, it isn't bad at all as my commute to and from work equates to approximately 45 minutes. Therefore, I get a full charge on the NEO that gives me 20-22 hours of run-time on my dash cam. One advice I would give to potential dash-cam buyers in making the jump to buy this battery is: if you haven't gotten a dash cam yet and if you are opting for the installation service, purchase your dash cam and the NEO together and pay for just 1 installation. I made the mistake of having to pay for 2 separate installation services because I decided to buy the battery later on and could have saved $200.

Hi Kevin, thanks for leaving a review. Great advice! Hope you're loving your Cellink NEO. Come back anytime if you have any other questions.

Fits 2020 Rav4 XSE hybrid

I installed this on the small space right hand forward of the spare tire. The thickness of the Cell link Neo is just perfect. It it was a little bit thicker the rear cover will not be flush with the floor. Negative connection was done directly to the vehicle 12V accessory battery as it is mounted at the right rear tail. ACC input was connected to the accessory rear 12V outlet. Cell link Neo powers 2 Garmin dash cam minis.

I wish the Cell link Neo have an option to change the name in the app. I have another Neo battery on another vehicle and it is hard to remember the serial numbers. But overall it works great.

Hi there, thanks for leaving a detailed review. Glad to hear that the Cellink NEO is everything you're looking for :) let us know if you have any questions in the future.

Easy installation

Works as described

Hi Vinh, thanks for leaving a review!

Great service

Thanks for leaving a review, William!

Product and shipping

Shipping and blackboxmycar are great.

Product is expensive and 3m tape will not fit properly. For an expensive product from thinkware i would assume products would come with vehicle specific or general items to install properly. Other options than the 3m tape.

Keep in mind to take measurements for placing the main unit. It may not fit or able to be placed under your seat.

I have spent more money on a front stand and bolted the camera. The rear camera ive made brackets and bolted it.

Hi Blkhze, thanks for leaving a review! Sorry to hear that, but glad to see that you found a solution. If you have any future questions, please don't hesitate to reach out to us directly.

A pricey dash cam

Very pricey, yet not quite the "jump" in video quality I expected for the huge pricetag.
When the vehicle is not in motion, then video quality is very crisp and clear. However, as soon as your vehicle is in motion (driving...) the video becomes extremely "contrasted" almost like it is over-correcting for image quality, and in-turn making it worse. I had a rexing V1 (1080p) for 3 years, and saved me through 2 hit & runs... simple, good quality, cheap. I expected the jump to 4k to be huge... The video is "brighter" at best, but my Rexing V1 was definitely smoother while driving. Hopefully this is something a firmware update can fix. I have messed with the 2K @ 60fps, but the video quality drops noticeably... to worse than my 1080P Rexing V1. (Doesnt add up)
I have had my eyes on this camera since before it came out, but I am still hoping it can pull through...

Hi Kyle, thank you for leaving a review. We will definitely relay this feedback back to Thinkware. They're constantly working on new firmware for their models, especially the U1000, so we do expect it to get even better over time. That said, have you updated your dash cam to the latest firmware? If you need help, please don't hesitate to reach out to our team. We're here to help!

Awesome Product and Support

BackBoxMyCar helped me make figure out which Dash Cam system was best for my 2015 Lexus RX350. Their live chat team is great to work with and they made figuring out the best dash cam for me very easy. After having it installed I am very impressed with the reliability and capability of this product. Also it was shipped out to me in less then 3 business days, which I found really impressive. Going forward I will continue to purchase from BlackBox due to this wonderful experience.
