I recently purchased an aqua vu dvr and i would like to get an SD card for it. I see that they have SD cards which go up to 8 GB now but when i called nature vision about this they said that the largest SD card you could use would be 3 GB.

My questions are have any of you guys used sd cards larger then 3 GB and have they worked?

Where would you even get a 3 GB sd card cause ive never heard of them?

How much video can you record on a 1, 2, 4, or 8 GB card?

Nature Vision's HSOforum said that you could only get about 2 hours of video on a 1 GB sd card but i thought i read on here that guys were getting much longer times. Thanks for your help!

Mark,

Max is a 2gb card that you can use (3gb doesn't exist)The amount of video you can get per gb is related to the amount of movement on the camera, etc. But I think you get about 15min for every 64mb give or take....

Thanks for all of the input fellas and you are correct about 2 gb cards being the largest they can handle (i called NV again this morning and got a better reasoning).

So with that said, how much video can a guy put on a 2 GB card? I think if i did the math right it would be around 5 hours and 20 minutes when assuming you can get 140 minutes on a 1 GB card (that is what NV told me you would get).

It will also vary depending on the brightness of your display image. I know with digital cameras a photo that is a bit over exposed is considerably larger than one that is properly exposed, usually by 1/3 of the size. Many variables play into the amount of storage something will eat up.

As some know, I am somewhat in the loop of NatureVision.. I made a phone call to get a few more answers.. This is what I got.

With the Aqua Vu DVR recording time is somewhat variable with the 2G SD cards. It varies anywhere from 2-4+ hours depending on the amount of Memory being used. Less motion uses less memory and that is why you get extended capturing time in a stationary setting when ice fishing and less time when used for open water use. One thing to point out is the unit is flexible in that you can delete unwanted footage one the water to free up space.

So, I hope this helps you out!

You might be able to buy a 4GB card and it might just recognize the first 3GB of the card. Some technology is like that. It will accept higher amounts, but will only recognize up to the max that is can support. Computers RAM for instance does that. Computers will support a certain max RAM, but you can put an amount over that and while it will accept the RAM it will only use max amount that the computer can recognize.

Never tried it with an SD card, but it might work.

jpz,

Are you speaking about the HC cards?

NewEgg has a 4GB Transcend (TS4GSDC) Non-HC card for just under $8. At that price its cheap enough price to give it a try. Otherwise, if you're okay with the 2GB cards, then stick to that.

Are you guys speaking of the add on little box by nature vision or the actual built in camera with dvr they now make? My wife bought me a Aqua View SRX for my birthday and I have been wondering how they work. I looked at the possible dvr box by Nature Vision, or thought to just buy a camera to hook up to it.

      It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.

      I haven’t done any leaf springs for a long time and I can’t completely see the connections in your pics BUT I I’d be rounding up: PB Blaster, torch, 3 lb hammer, chisel, cut off tool, breaker bar, Jack stands or blocks.   This kind of stuff usually isn’t the easiest.   I would think you would be able to get at what you need by keeping the house up with Jack stands and getting the pressure off that suspension, then attack the hardware.  But again, I don’t feel like I can see everything going on there.

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      reviving an old thread due to running into the same issue with the same year of house. not expecting anything from yetti and I already have replacement parts ordered and on the way.   I am looking for some input or feedback on how to replace the leaf springs themselves.    If I jack the house up and remove the tire, is it possible to pivot the axel assembly low enough to get to the other end of the leaf spring and remove that one bolt?   Or do I have to remove the entire pivot arm to get to it? Then I also have to factor in brake wire as well then. What a mess   My house is currently an hour away from my home at a relatives, going to go back up and look it over again and try to figure out a game plan.           Above pic is with house lowered on ice, the other end of that leaf is what I need to get to.   above pic is side that middle bolt broke and bottom 2 leafs fell out here is other side that didnt break but you can see bottom half of leaf already did but atleast bolt is still in there here is hub assembly in my garage with house lowered and tires off when I put new tires on it a couple months ago. hopefully I can raise house high enough that it can drop down far enough and not snap brake cable there so I can get to that other end of the leaf spring.
