Buying options
View on Amazon.comor
- MINIATURE SIZE:The B1W mini stealthy car camera is only 90mm/3.54in x 29mm/1.14in x 38mm/1.50in without an LCD screen. The small size and all-black form factor make it is more stealthy. Support 64GB max Micro SD card (Not included in the package)
- 360° ROTATABLE CAMERA BODY:Camera body of the B1W drive recorder supports 360-degree rotation, making it easy to adjust lens angle if necessary, allowing inside or outside of the car video recording
- SUPER CAPACITOR: The B1W car camera video recorder uses dual supercapacitors instead of a lithium battery, which is a safer and more reliable choice to operate in hot environments
- BUILT-IN WiFi: The B1W car DVR with WiFi function can connect to view footage, download videos, and change settings via an APP on your iPhone or Android device Note: Please use the car power supply, cigarette lighter socket, not the laptop for the power source
- PARKING MODE FUNCTION: The B1W dashboard camera comes with a parking mode function, which triggered by G-sensor. When an impact is detected by the G-sensor, the camera starts video recording for 30 seconds automatically. (The hardwire kits needed for Parking Mode are not included in the standard package, the buyer needs to buy it separately.)
- SUPER CAPACITOR: The B1W car camera video recorder uses dual supercapacitors instead of a lithium battery, which is a safer and more reliable choice to operate in hot environments. ( But since it uses a capacitor, it may not keep the system time after weekend parking, only suggest you sync the time in the app every Monday)

Its the Blueskysea B1W. It’s one of the cheap Chinese models, but I’ve been really impressed by its performance.
Plenty of options:
Versatile: Mobius ($70-100 USD) (Requires separate purchase: Power cable or hardwire kit + Micro SD card + adhesive Mount) + recommended purchase Super capacitor - Good video quality, Fair build quality, Lackluster parking mode: Automatic, Not buffered, Requires hardwire kit with low voltage cut off feature to enable parking mode. No wifi/cellphone app. - This isn't the best dash cam in the world, but it is one of the smaller ones. It was made for the drone world, and repurposed for the dash cam world. Lacks Cloud feature. - No GPS - Lacks G sensor (because it is part of the drone world)

Just to complicate things a bit more: BlackVue 1CH dash cams can not be upgraded to 2 CH. They will lack the rear camera port, as the 1CH dash cams are physically different than the 2CH versions.
Thinkware dash cams which have 1CH/2CH versions can be upgraded from 1 CH -> 2CH.
Look around for the best price. - Standard copy pasta.
For $80 budget (cam plus microSD), just get this camera. It is basic for basic needs (covering your ass when it comes to insurance or court claims).
I promise I did your research, I've spent 6 hours and narrowed down to this given my cheap ass budget. Having to own it for 8 months, it's 100% worth it. I get great images, videos, emergency button works without issues, and I haven't had to reset the microSD either (some cam stop deleting footage on a loop - glitch). Also it sticks far harder than your bare ass on black leather of a convertible mustang in the middle of the day in LA - it will not fall or break your dash window.
Anyway, my two cents dude.

Probably possible. Not sure if it would be worth it. A dash cam with motion detection and an additional battery might be enough to ease you worries. I had one installed and it makes me feel a little better.

The Yi is a good camera for the price and if you live somewhere cooler (England). Unfortunately, it loses focus in even mildly warm weather. I still think for most people the Viofo A119V2 for a $100 is a pretty good choice. I made a video way back that talks about some good choices. The only update I might make is switching our $60 general pick for the BlueSkySea B1W.
I'm going to leave these recommended dashcams here for you when you're ready for it!

The r/dashcam subreddit calls it the cheapest dashcam they can recommend. So I bought it. Wired it to the OBD2 with an inline switch.

I'm pretty sure my video editor is the problem though
• B1W ($47-55 USD)
One of the mods recommends this as the cheapest reliable option.
I have a Yi Dashcam ($45ish) that has done well in the Texas heat. It is battery operated, instead of capacitor, which is a downside.
this or
this
/r/dashcam sidebar has some other options and more information.
You don’t even need an expensive one. Get something like the B1W. There are even cheaper ones.
The recommended budget dashcams that offer Wifi include B1W dashcam (capacitor-based) and Yi Smart dashcam (battery-based). These two will suit most drivers very well and both are in the $50 price range.
Where do you live in the US by the way?
The consistent dashcam voted best by /r/dashcam is this one:

I use this one. Pretty good for the price

this just got delivered to me. 2800 rupees in all but it requires a class 10 memory card or above so take that into account. I bought this from a different seller for a bit cheaper but it had free shipping as well.
Other than that we have this one which is recommended by dashcamtalk as a good budget camera. If you have a high budget you can go for this one. If you are on a tight budget but are not comfortable buying from Aliexpress this one might be for you. Other than that Viofo A118, A119 are quite popular in India as well.
Buy a model 3, Tesla just released an update which enables the side cameras for recording during driving and parking :) /s
But I was also thinking about how to achieve this the past couple months. I would probably get another 750S-2ch or 900S-2ch and put the larger main cameras on the front and rear and the 2nd, smaller cameras on the side. Its pricey, but it would work and look fairly decent. Other options would just be buying two cheaper, low-profile dashcams like a DDPai or a blueskysea. The only issue with that is that the parking modes arent as robust as Blackvues, nor does it have cloud viewing.

I use the B1W which is 40 bucks right now. It's a popular cheap option.
Not OP but I use this one and its pretty stealthy behind the mirror

Usually the battery in dash cameras are not easily replaceable, but it is doable. Just not sure it's worth it. Plus, you can't even be sure it's 100% the battery.
If you can get the camera to turn on again, try manually defaulting the cameras settings in the menu (should be a default option). Worth a try.
If your looking for cheap, I wouldn't recommend anything cheaper than the BlueSkySea B1W. Seems to get decent reviews and it's a capacitor based camera, so no battery.

Got two of these B1W for around $100.

Here’s my setup, it’s expensive but having the piece of mind is worth every penny.
I have the Blueskysea B1W. It’s $55 on Amazon and has a nice app where you can view and download video.

Check it. It fails a lot, just like my old G1W, which should have been a good one, but wasn't.
Like I said, it's a ripoff, it isn't good. I don't know what else to tell you.
Get a reputable cam, good card, be done. BlueSkySea is pretty shit.
Wait, shoot, I just realized there are two subs. There's /r/dashcams, and there's /r/dashcam.
The singular one is way more active, and its suggestions might be better. It's suggesting one for $55. https://www.amazon.com/Blueskysea-Recorder-Rotatable-G-Sensor-Recording/dp/B0773FXVKL
