Seems more and more like having one might come in handy one day. Might catch some crazy Russian-like stuff if nothing else.

Something small and inconspicuous pointing to front, to rear and to driver.

Suggestions welcomed.

I would like one but the music you have to listen to is awful.

Agree. Any cam that doesn't come with a stringed instrument that sounds like you have to play it on your lap is best.

Almost bought one 100 times but never pull the trigger. Seems like it should be a requirement in this state given how people drive

What have you researched that looked like the best value

Yeah, I'd like to get some recommendations, too. What's ScubaFeet using? His is exceptionally clear.

It's always something I just see in stores and put in the buggy and then put it back. Haven't done much research either, the ones I looked at weren't expensive at all tho.

I have the A119. I bought the $10 gps adapter. the adapter comes loose from the camera when you hit a bump and it causes the camera to lose power momentarily. Which means it has to reboot. It started rebooting on me 4-5 times every commute.

The camera itself is nice but if you get it dont bother with the gps adapter and just power straight into the camera.

I also suggest a wire kit and wiring it properly to the fuse box. having a cable hang down that goes into your cigarette lighter is pretty lame.

I have one from Amazon. It's great and pretty clear, but they always get fricked after a few months in Louisiana heat.

Just don't drive on a military base with one. Like radar detectors...they're illegal.
