What our customers say:
All our TeslaCam drives fit in the Jeda Hub (including the hidden TeslaCam compartment)
Why microSD cards?
The microSD drives we use are designed for Dashcam systems. These cards are rugged, built to withstand extreme heat and cold, which is perfect for being left in a car year round, and have a write speed that far surpasses the minimum Tesla requirement (4 MB/sec).
Regular USB flash drives cannot withstand the constant recording that takes place with Dashcam systems and will fail…probably when you need it the most. microSD cards, specifically those in this package, are up to the task and can handle the burden.
Dashcam and Sentry Mode captures...
- Accidents
- Hit and Run
- Unusual occurances
…and so much more.
- Theft
- Keying
- Door Dings
Frequently Asked Questions
Tesla vehicles that have AP2.5 hardware or later are compatible with recording video to a USB drive.
AP2.5 hardware started shipping on Tesla vehicles starting in August 2017, with a full conversion in October 2017.
USB recording is NOT compatible with AP1.0 or AP2.0 hardware (vehicles manufactured before August 2017).
No, your Pure Tesla USB drive comes entirely pre-formatted for TeslaCam.
Simply open the package and plug the USB drive into your Tesla. That's it!
One minute of footage has a typical size of 30 MB. Using that metric:

Dashcam is a system built into your Tesla. When a properly formatted USB drive (like the one we sell) is inserted into the USB port in your Tesla, the car will start recording from the front, left, right, and rear cameras.
The system retains the most recent hour of footage before overwriting itself.
To save footage, simply tap the Dashcam icon (small camera with red dot) and the last 10 minutes of footage will be saved permanently to the SavedClips folder on the drive. It will remain until you delete it.
Sentry Mode, when enabled, monitors your Tesla while it is parked and locked. When a potential threat is detected, the system enters Alert state, which starts the four cameras recording (front, left, right, rear) and also displays a message on the center screen.
If the threat becomes physical (entering vehicle, damage, etc) it will enter Alarm state and will activate the lights, horn, and music in the car.
Video clips from both Alert and Alarm states are saved to the SentryClips folder on your USB drive. The oldest clips overwrite when the drive fills up.

Worth the small cost for quality product with support if needed which I didn’t.
Frank A. (verified owner) –
Works right out of the box great
Dennis (verified owner) –
It worked exactly as advertised. True plug and play which was very much easier than formating and setting up files for a retired non computer guy like me. Really like the expanded memory with the SD card.

Information on web site was easy to navigate. Ordering was simple. Communication was great. Arrived on time. Installation was a breeze.
I have not tried to access files on the drive, yet, but I am assuming it will be easy to navigate.

Only just received it but the setup was about as easy as could possibly be (plug it in and it starts working already) and I was already able to view my first few sentry mode videos. I wish every Tesla came with this already!
I do recommend in terms of helping you save dashcam footage in case of an accident, to enable the automatic record system in case of honking. That’s in the security section on the screen.

I tried for days to format my own stick but was unsuccessful. I didn’t want to spend the money on something I thought I could do myself. I was skeptical about purchasing online but I’m glad I did. It works perfectly.
