"For the current sale price (I paid £30/$40) and with the x2 quality tip sets included, it’s a no brainer. ... The Divinus Velvet tips alone are like $20-25 and I use only them with my Fudu after trying 8-10 different types."
"literally saved thousands on takeout over the years"
"However, if you’re able to snap it up at around $40, then its bang-for-buck score would easily hit a full 5."

"Capacitor powered. That’s what makes them be able to handle hot and cold temps. I would never get a battery powered dashcam."
"Yeah they are specifically better in the heat than other cameras because they use a super capacitor instead of a battery to do the final writing to the SD card when the power gets cut by your car. ... Batteries tend to have issues in extreme heat/cold"
"been going strong for 6 years now in extreme heat and cold."

2FEATHERS_98 1.0I got a rove r2 4k pro with a rear camera, and I love it. It’s currently on sale for 90 and it comes with a 128gb sd card.
9thGenSi 1.0The r2 4k, r2 4k pro and the r2 4k dual are three different specs. The dual is the newest specs. Works great love it but the pro isnt as good as the dual.
BigGeoffrey_ 1.0Beware of Fitcamx on my previous car; it slowly drained my battery over six months while the car was off. I have been using a [Rove R2-4k Pro](https://www.amazon.com/ROVE-R2-4K-PRO-Dashcam-Supports/dp/B0BZRKRBHP) since May in my MK 8.5, which can be hardwired into the Fuse box or connected to the 12V port, and haven't had any issues.
cap_blueberry 1.0Yep that's what I use ...fairly easy to run the wire across the headliner....down the pillar....along the side of the dash....and behind the glove box! I've had it for over a year and no complaints.
DuckTalesLOL 1.0I bought this last month - not necessarily the cheapest ROVE R2-4K PRO Dash Cam, Built-in... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BZRKRBHP?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
Dupagoblin 1.0Rove R2-4K Pro. Under $100. Love this camera. I think the Viofo is great too. Can’t go wrong with either.
Impressive_Taste6180 1.0Low $100 should do the job. ROVE R2-4K Pro or REDTIGER 4K. I have both on different cars. Clear pics. On my ID4, I used Fuse #52. This is the rear trunk cigarette lighter power. Internet pic shows this #52 as one long Fuse, but it is not. It has two setup option, connect to the upper slot of #52, you will get power only when the car is On. I chose the upper slot setup. Lower slot of #52, then power is always On. YouTube has severals clips that show how to run and hide the cable. Be careful with the rectangular panel next to the door. You have to slide it to the side before pull out so you don't break it. One YouTube guy shows this briefly. It took 30-45 minutes to install front dashcam. I don't install the rear.
JohnnyCanuckist 1.0Hardwired in a Rove 4K pro and now upgraded to the dual camera 4K model. Old one will go in my truck next time it's warm enough outside to install it.
nehro7 1.0I am too rove r2 pro 4k

Odd-Concept-6505 1.0I have a 2023 HR-V and got a a Rove 4K Pro under $100 on Amazon. Oh but, comes without storage so I got the max size for this dashcam, SanDisk Extreme PRO microSDXC UHS-I Memory Card 512gb around $60 US. I didn't feel like running wires ...and didn't feel the need for parking mode operation (wiring to fusebox where power is avail when not running), especially since the Honda battery is small..if I change my mind I would use a separate power pack. Chose one with no rear view, and Bought a (super high quality) Anker USB A to USB C Cable, Charger Cord 6 ft, letting the cord dangle straight down from its near-mirror windshield mount position, wrapped a couple loops of excess charger cord around the cool center console then plugged into one of the two charging ports on my HR-V. (I need the closer/3rd one with DATA for my phone and Android Auto.) You might find that ugly, but I don't. The Rove comes with a (useless for us) cable+thing requiring cigarette lighter power, and warns about using high power USB-C sources (NOT a concern for you. I researched specs of camera and HR-V USB power but forgot details, amps/watts.) Setup: I disabled the vehicle SPEED reporting/recording function (allows you to simply not show MPH in the saved videos) after pondering the wisdom of that. If it were my kid's car I would not disable..
