【Driveman:Asahi Research】BS-9b Dashboard Recorder Review
Excellent "point to take with "Motorcycle
[How is it used?
...from approximately December 17, 2022 to September 21, 2023, inclusive.
Base is attached to the helmet using the included double-sided tape mount.
Was the one you received as per Image?
As shown in the image, as shown in the Image.
The previous generation:Bs-8a (https://www.webike.net/sd/23562886/) looks almost the same, for better or worse.
How was your experience with it?
The signal is almost always visible while it is on the screen with no problems at all, giving a sense of security. Also, the image quality is clear enough to be recognized.
The battery can also be recorded at all times while running from morning to night, except during breaks. However, if you run until nighttime, it is safer to charge the battery somewhere during breaks.
USB TypeCCable is used for charging, but it is not recognized if both ends are CCable, and USB-A is required for the One Side. In short, a cable that can charge B+COM SB6X is acceptable.
The Magnet base is a Strap that prevents falling off, but falling while driving has not occurred since the previous generation.
Because it is mounted on a helmet, it has the advantage of being able to take pictures in the direction it is facing, unlike vehicle-mounted systems.
To mount on Helmet, if the driving posture changes between motivated and unmotivated, the angle must be readjusted or only the sky will fit in the angle of view.
Because it is mounted on a helmet, the Image is easy to record against a four-wheeled vehicle that will bury the Motorcycle in a single blow.
The file is recorded on a microSDCard, but the internal file can be viewed on a Smartphone (Google Pixel 7 Pro) by using a type-CAdapter from USB-A while the SDCard is inserted in the body.
The sound and vibration notifies the user when the device is activated and when it is closed, so the user does not have to worry even if the Body is not visible from the mounting position.
I felt evolution from the previous generation because various settings can be made only with Body by long-press activation.
Mysterious blinking function added to Light, but not yet used.
Body weight is not light, but I don't think I feel a tilt in the center of gravity or directly related to fatigue when running around with it on Helmet.
[Points to note]
Although the body has evolved, with settings now possible only on the body and the charging terminal changed to type-C, the parts described in the previous generation's Impreza (https://imp.webike.net/article/414070/) remain unchanged.
The round part connecting the rubber cover on the back to the body is still too thin, and even though I had recognized it, I tore it off the first time. However, the rubber cover itself is too tight and does not come off unexpectedly.
The screws on the mounting base were re-tightened and hardened with Aron Alpha. The tightness of the screws determines the fixation of the body, so if the screws are tightened too much, it will be impossible to change the angle of the body.
How did it compare to other products?
Despite the weight of the Body, we felt that in many cases this product was superior in terms of continuous shooting time.
The image quality is beautiful, but if you want to keep a record of your touring and conversations at Income, I thought it would be easier to use SENA, which is integrated with CameraIncome.
In exchange for its weight, this product boasts a long recording time. Although we have not been able to evaluate the durability of the product, we believe that it is highly durable, as Base is used in Japan where the equipment is running around and waiting for prey without regard to the season or weather.
On the other hand, except for the Body, all the shortcomings of the previous generation have been carried over, including the giving up of the possibility of seeing no evolution except for the Body.

Impressions after using it for commuting.
I am currently using it for commuting on my Motorcycle in case of an accident.
The image is not as clear as I would have liked for using image stabilization, but I think that's about it.
One complaint is that the battery does not last as long as expected, so we would like to see improvements here.
Also, when I removed the waterproof and dustproof rubber part of the back part of the body to charge the battery, the thin rubber part that connects it to the body broke off (I contacted the manufacturer and they sent me the part because it was an initial defect). (I contacted the manufacturer and they sent me a part.
We trusted JAPAN and were reassured that After Service would be done properly.

Defective in protective rubber
When I tried to charge the battery, I removed the BlackRubber that is attached to protect the important parts of the Power Supply Cable etc. and bent it slightly, and the part connected to the Body was cut off. Since the body and the rubber part for protection are now separated, I have to be careful not to lose it when I charge the battery. I was disappointed with the quality of the product and was dissatisfied with the defects that occurred immediately after opening the package. Is it really JAPAN? View detail
