Users in hot climates like the capacitor models that withstand high temps better than the battery models, but the battery models record long after the loss of power and in some other situations.

I'm running Viofo 119's in my cars and SUV, recent upgrades when they were on sale for $50 last year. They're good in low light where most other dashcams fall off.

Here are some recent reviews:

I had a battery dash cam and the battery blew up after 24 hours, it couldnt handle the heat, got that replaced with a model up and the same thing but it lasted a week :/ great camera just sucks i cant run any battery type dash cams so now the dash cam turns on when the car is on.
