Thinkware F770 here front and rear.Who uses dash cams in their cars with the always recording when the cars parked.
Set to time lapse in parking mode.
I found that continuous recording just filled up the Micro Card to quick.

Blackvue DR650S 2ch here, it does the job but does record a lot of nothing in parking mode ! !
So had to get a large 128GB memory card so it doesn't overwrite any information and it was quite fussy on memory cards.

Are there any of these dash cams rechargeable or are they all wired power supplies.
Mines the Thinkware F770. There`s different ways of connecting them up. With engine on mine takes power from the car battery.With engine off you could still wire it to take power from the car battery but that will drain it after a while and the thinkware then turns off. I have a separate battery wired so with engine off it draws from this and with engine running it draws from car battery but also charges the thinkware battery at the same time. So simple to wire up ,just three wires for power then plug the cameras in.

The thing is I don't want any wires at all while it's in operation. It'll be bad enough having the thing suckered to the window.

The wires are all tucked under the various trims.Apart from 2" of wire at the front camera there is nothing showing at all

Hmmm. Trying to persuade my self to buy the Thinkware F800 Pro 2. Not sure if the extra money ( over the F770 ) for energy saving is worth it.

sounds like the f800 is missing cloud feature and is not as discreet as f770....
the image quality is better but i assure you the f770 is HD incredible....depends on price difference but hope that helps
