Hardwire kits that run on the vehicle battery with low voltage cutoffs are reviewed in the Articles section at dashcamtalk.com. You can find basic kits for under $10 on eBay but as the article shows, the best ones are $40. Might not be worth it if your cam has parking mode and a decent battery with motion record time set to 5-10 minutes for each event.
