Video Camera in Car

killrain · 04-28-2016, 11:13 PM

Anyone have any experience setting up cameras in the car to record. Interested in doing this since I have a bunch of haters and idiots where I live and trust no one.

Was thinking of buying a camera with a 64GB or more storage and connecting via usb to a small portable charger for power. Maybe mount one in the front and another looking out the rear.

Any suggestions or input/advice is appreciated!

I was looking at the BlackVue DR650GW-2CH myself, might want to take a look-see.

Use a Mini 0805 for both my cars, solid units that don't cost too much,

I picked up the G1W-C from Spytec for $60 and wired it it up to the driver side fuse box so it goes on/off automatically with the car. I had some difficulty with one micro SD card not recording the entire time on longer trips, but that looks to be sorted out with a better card that has a higher sustained write speed.

Where/how did you end up mounting the rear camera? Part of me thinks it'd be better mounted towards the bottom of the rear window since I think the Nismo spoiler would block part of the view if I mounted it on top.
