Only thing negative is that you cannot adjust left and right once in position, only able to tilt up and down.

The "battery" for the blackvue only lasts a few hours if I remember correctly. Rewiring a plug to be always hot won't be difficult at all. Just don't let your car sit for more than a few days or you'll kill your battery. Definitely the easiest option

yes ive heard that too so the BV doesnt make sense for me, before tax its almost $600CDN which is like a set of tires or track days. Ive been reading and it seems like tapping into the radio or brake light power delivery is the way to go i should be able to keep my current cam then, I can also throw in a larger battery in the car for some more peace of mind but I drive the car every day as it is
