TL;DR Daytime plate legibility unconfirmed · no independent community footage comparison found at time of review. Night vision: independent footage comparison not available at time of review. Sony STARVIS 2 sensor with F1.5 aperture and 4K front + 1080P rear dual-channel recording; trigger-only parking mode (G-sensor + time-lapse), hardwire kit sold separately. Lithium-ion battery. FCC-only · no UL/ETL electrical safety certification.
The REDTIGER F7NP records front 4K and rear 1080P simultaneously. The Sony STARVIS 2 sensor and F1.5 aperture imply competitive daytime and low-light performance for the price tier; no independent community footage comparison was available at time of review to confirm real-world plate legibility at highway distances. The CPL filter (included in box) reduces windshield glare in footage. Built-in GPS logs speed and route data, accessible via the Redtiger Cam app over 5.8GHz WiFi. Parking mode is trigger-only · G-sensor collision detection and a time-lapse option · with no pre-event buffer. A hardwire kit is required and sold separately. No community reports of parking-mode battery drain or file corruption were found, though the review base is still too modest for pattern detection. The F7NP uses a lithium-ion battery. No CPSC recall is active as of review date (2026-05-20).
Dual-channel coverage (4K front, 1080P rear) makes the F7NP a match for drivers who need front-and-rear incident documentation at a mid-range price · the CPL filter and memory card are included, reducing out-of-box cost. Skip it if parking-mode protection is the priority: the hardwire kit is sold separately and the trigger-only mode has no pre-event buffer. Drivers weighting community-validated footage quality should also wait · independent footage comparisons were not available at time of review.
The F7NP uses a lithium-ion buffer battery. At end of life, the device qualifies for Best Buy electronics recycling or municipal e-waste drop-off. No manufacturer take-back program was documented. For lithium battery disposal, Call2Recycle drop-off locations apply. No UL or ETL electrical safety certification confirmed · FCC mark covers radio emissions only. No Prop 65 warning. No CPSC recall active as of 2026-05-20.
Yes · a memory card is included in the box. The CPL filter (circular polarizing lens filter, which reduces windshield glare) is also included, making this a more complete out-of-box package than many competitors in the category.
No. Parking mode requires a separately purchased hardwire kit. The F7NP's parking mode is trigger-only · it uses the G-sensor to detect a collision or records a time-lapse. Without the hardwire kit, the camera powers off when you shut the vehicle off.
REDTIGER confirms the F7NP uses a Sony STARVIS 2 sensor with an F1.5 aperture and 6-layer optical lens. The specific IMX model number has not been publicly disclosed by REDTIGER on this ASIN · independent teardowns confirming the exact chip were not available at time of review.
