I use the Blackvue. I have it hard wired into the fuse box. Works great takes a great picture.

there's an active discussion over at the other place:

I have dashcams running in both of our vehicles for a couple of years now. Nothing special, just a decent chinesium wide-angle cam that's just front facing. They do the job.
I'm pretty sure mine shows license plate numbers just fine from 10 feet away or so, but it's been awhile since I actually looked at what is recorded. A 32 GB chip gives about 5 hours of HD recording w/audio on a loop. |
Just read some interesting things with the Owl camera. Subscription is $99 per year with 60 credits. If you view a live shot, 1 credit a minute, recorded view, 1 credit a minute. An additional 60 credits is $5. It would add up pretty quickly for viewing or monitoring. Each time you say Ok Presto to record to your phone, 1 credit 1 minute.
I like the Blackvue, I can read license plates just fine and the picture quality is very good. You can do a could based subscription where it will track where you are and your wife can check up on you. Went to Lowe's hey?? |

Thing has been great when I use it but never got around to mounting the rear camera. Night vision is excellent and audio is pretty good. Access with the phone app is really cool with a fairly intuitive GUI. Scott |
The Blackview looks like a good choice.

I am looking for a dash cam that only locally records in the unit itself (no monthly fees). |
I bought a Rexing V1 from amazon and I'm happy with it.
I hardwired it and it isn't visible from the driver seat. It was in the car when I let a nephew take the Camaro to prom last spring.:lol: |

He knew it was there, but completely forgot about it. :lol: He was nervous... But still got up to about 90 on a narrow county road. Unsure of whether he'll be taking it for his senior prom... |
Got one about a year ago. Still haven't put it in...
|
I've been using one now for couple of years. I got one due to where I have to drive to get on a train. It's very close to a college with lots of students riding bikes who don't obey traffic laws.
|
I use one. It came in handy when the guy ran me into the guardrail on the way to work one morning. His insurance company said it's obvious the guy was at fault.
