18 Years of BlackVue
Imaging Mastery
Since 2007
ELITE 8 redefines dash cam clarity by combining the best components with BlackVue’s expert image tuning mastery acquired over 18 years of experience.
Redefined Clarity with Dual HDR
ELITE 8 offers improved dash cam performance with advanced HDR technology. It is designed to provide clear and well-balanced video recordings in both bright sunlight and low-light situations.
2K QHD
Top-of-the-line Sony IMX675 STARVIS 2 image sensors in both the front and rear cameras, recording at a 2560×1440 pixels resolution.
HDR support on both front and rear cameras (visit the ELITE 8-2CH page).
BlackVue HDR also reduces motion blur and improves detail, making license plates easier to read on moving vehicles.
The 7-element f/2.0 aperture lens (front and rear) provides a great mix of depth of field and low-light performance. The 142-degree angle covers a wide field of view with minimal distortion.
0.03-Lux Night Vision :
See What Others Miss
Many dash cams struggle to record clear footage in dark or uneven lighting.
With HDR, ELITE 8 improves both brightness and clarity, resulting in well-balanced video with strong contrast.
Ultra Low-Light Boost: when ambient light gets really low, ELITE 8 automatically increases sensitivity so you get a clear image even in the darkest environments.
24/7 Protection

With the Parking Mode Accessories
Power Saving Mode
Runtime Estimates
| Scenario | Runtime |
| New/Healthy Battery, Minimal Drain | 2 weeks to 2 months |
| Older Battery/High Drain | 1–2 weeks or less |
| With B-130A/B-130X | 10+ months |
Up to Over 12 Months of Protection!
In Power Saving Mode, the dash cam minimizes power consumption by going into standby, then wakes up on impact and goes back to standby mode after 1 min recording.
Provides several weeks of protection when hardwired to a car with a healthy battery and up to several months of protection when paired with BlackVue Ultra Battery (B-130A).
Ultra-Low Current Draw: Under 1 mA! It’s actually under 0.5 mA. Literally hundreds of times less than a dash cam’s standard mode draw.
Ultra-Fast Wakeup Time: Under 1 second! Starts recording as soon as an impact is detected.
Minimized heat: in standby, ELITE 8 generates almost no heat, so it operates reliably even in hot weather.
Note: buffered recording is not supported in this mode.
The Best Daily Protection
with Pre-Event Recording
2 standard Parking Mode settings.
- Motion Detection: records a 1-minute buffered video whenever a motion is detected by the front or rear camera. Motion detection areas can be set manually in the app.
- Time Lapse: records constantly at 1 frame per second so each 1 minute video covers 30 minutes of real time. Recommended if you routinely park in busy areas.
Pre-impact recording: in both modes, the dash cam also records buffered Event clips in case of impact.
That means 1-minute clips that start 10 seconds before the detected impact.
Comprehensive
Event Detection
Detects and records driving impacts, parking impacts, sudden acceleration, hard braking, sharp turns, and overspeeding using the built-in G-Sensor and GPS.
Always Get the Full Picture!
With buffered recording, Event clips always include the action that led to the triggering event.
All Event clips last 1 minute and start 10 seconds before an incident, so you can clearly identify who’s at fault.
Your Most Important Clips are Protected
Like every dash cam, ELITE constantly records in a loop. When the microSD card storage is full, older clips are automatically overwritten by newer footage.
With its Event File Protection function, ELITE ensures that critical footage is not overwritten by normal driving clips.
Protects up to 50 critical event recordings from overwriting.
Hassle-Free Installation
1. Mount the front and rear cams
2. Plug the power and video cables
3. Start driving

Overheat protection: ELITE 8 operates at temperatures ranging from -20°C (-4°F) to +65°C (149°F). If the ambient temperature reaches 70°C (158°F), it shuts down to protect itself. When down to 65°C, it turns back on.
