just started using a Black Box G1W with capacitor (no battery melt from heat) in my car, suction cup high on windshield, device is small with an LCD screen. Tuck the wire in the headliner adjacent to windshield, down A-pillar, tucked down in dash at windshield the across dash down to power outlet. under sixty $, plus a $12 32gb Samsung Class 10 micro card.
There really is no set-up, just attach suction mount to cam, install card, mount, plug-in.

Device came with USB, plus with my firewire adapter it connects easy to my 2017 Mac book.

The looping and 3-minute segment clips make for easy retrieval of video. It records sound and it's amusing to go back and listen to conversations.

Just leave it plugged in to my cigarette power outlet, in my 235 it turns off after about 20-minutes.

Thought about getting another G1W to mount in may rear window and connect to power outlet in trunk.
