I tried to get into dashcams for a few years but even the expensive brands seemed to be absolute garbage. After dealing with terrible apps, poor UI and batteries refusing to charge after being shelved for just a few weeks I simply gave up.
If I got back into it I would probably end up building my own with a Raspberry Pi camera.
The advertised brands like Garmin are definitely garbage and I can attest that they almost all use normal batteries. You have to go with a source company (like the one I provided) that actually specializes in them rather than a brand reseller.
Honestly I checked out the link but it looked like any of the other thousands of no-name Chinese brands on Amazon (not to imply American brands like Garmin are any better).
I went with this brand specifically because it was recommended by Techmoan, who reviewed these for years. He actually stopped reviewing them because he landed on this brand and didn’t feel the need to keep looking.
