I coupled this deal with an OBD power cable adapter [amazon.com] for $13.98, and a samsung pro endurance 64gb micro sd card [amazon.com] for $15.97.

I have this dashcam and you CAN see the license plate numbers but only during daytime. It's been working great for me so far but i hope to upgrade to a 2k or a 4k one in the future. Just not driving that much these days, you know?

I wish they made these similar and without a screen. My father's been asking for one for a while, but he gets too easily distracted when there's controls or screens to fiddle with.

I want a set it and forget it solution. Sadly the only ones I can find and cheap and have terrible image quality.

These are set it and forget. It auto records as soon as there's power + SD card installed. You can also turn off the screen during recording. The only time you need to press something is the lock button if you want to prevent a clip to be overwritten.

I get that it's set it and forget it for most people. But it still has glowing lights and beeps and sticks out in front of the mirror.

I want something discreet that I can install in my dad's car, and he doesn't even remember it's there until a time where he actually needs to pull footage off of it.

Stick it up on top of the windshield in front of the rearview mirror and you can barely see it. it is a zero distraction. I have to make an effort to look at it to make sure it's still on, since I have it hardwired.

I have this. The suction cup rubber broke into little pieces from being in the sun everyday for the last 29 months. Their warranty is 24 months and they don't sell replacement parts. I've been trying to buy a replacement piece with no luck. I would stay away as the suction cup can't handle being in the sun for a long time.

Edit-sorry I was talking about the DR01 which uses a suction cup.

Dude? There's no suction cup. It uses 3M adhesive.

No glowing light if you turn it off. One light.

And no beeps at all.

And something like this is the closest you can get with a dashcam for set and forget if you hide the wiring and hard wire it or get an OBD plugin. The SD card needs to be reformatted and checked every few months.

Or, get your father a horse that wears a GoPro.

How is it compared to this one? Different form factor but Amazon says "newer model" etc.

Thank you so much for the OBD adapter cable. Makes install so much cleaner, I had to hunt for fuse on my setup, what a pain, and non of the fuses were constant.
Does this keep it running while car is off in case of hit and run, or is it strictly switched power?

PS: Oh man those reviews are scary, did you see the videos?

Also those who consider this, perhaps get polarized filter if it fits on this.

It has 2 switch settings. 1 keeps it always on, the other powers down after 5 minutes.
