Best Recording Car Cameras???

[Rockrz 10+ year member]

Didn't see a forum for this topic, so I thought scrounge around the lounge since there seems to be some pretty knowledgeable folks here on car electronics...

OK, so with so many nutjobs out on the road these days, I might be interested in installing a camera in my truck, but if I'm going to do that I'd like something similar to the one being talked about the video which is odd cause the video has no links to buy this product.

I'd be interested in it being battery operated (so it's not draining on the vehicle's battery) which makes it easy to move from vehicle to vehicle.

And, I'd like for it to have night vision and parking mode so it'll be on the look out while the vehicles is parked... so, anybody got any suggestions on which camera I should consider?

Here's the link to buy the camera setup in the video below and it's snot expensive so maybe it's extra cheap chinese junk?

I unfortunately have zero knowledege about these products but it is definitely a good topic to delve into. A sentry camera like on the Teslas would be great.

Yep, in addition to the camera running while one is driving.... having it running while the vehicle is parked would be kool as well.

Good subject, but unless you want to Go-Pro, it seems like there is just a bunch of cheap china clones out there.

I have an Alpine DVR-C320R in my truck. It's a good camera. It installed easily and integrated with my ILX-507. Its settings are accessed through the 507. It has night vision and parked mode.
