Looking for a Dashcam
Hey guys,
I'm thinking about getting a dashcam for my car as I commute to work in traffic as well as park my car on campus for class. Right now I'm torn between the Thinkware F770and the Blackvue DR650. Right now I am leaning more towards the DR650 as it is cheaper, and there is a DIY out on how to wire it on the forums I am looking for something that can record both my front and back as well as turn itself on while it is parked. Any feedback is appreciated! Kindest Regards, Peter K. |

I have the Thinkware F770 and it's a great working system. I chose it after doing extensive research of everything available out there. It's very compact and pretty much invisible behind the windshield matrix (except of course at night when the front led's are rolling).

Having owned 4 different dash cams in the past, I'm currently on the Viofo A119 and love it; best dash cam for $100 so far.

I have a cheap G1WC $60 model. Only does the front but it works. As for the parking mode. I purchased a cheap Power bank and connected the dashcam to it.
