Hey everyone,
Last week my car was hit on the quarter panel purposely while parked in my condo underground parking. Two days later, someone sideswiped the same rear quarter panel in some parking lot, not sure where.
I now need a dash cam after picking my car up from the bodyshop next week! I had an HD dash cam in my old car which recorded while driving on an SD card and kept looping over. I got it on aliexpress for $29 and it's a pretty good cam for the price, but it's only useful for day driving, the night vision was terrible.
I don't want to spend a crazy amount of money and maybe there's a good Chinese version out there from aliexpress. I know a lot of companies get them from china anyway and rebrand.
Here's some additional details to help narrow down any choices or recommendations.
1. I live in a condo with underground parking. The damage done to my car the first time was done there. This is one of the main reasons to get one, I don't trust many people in the building. The condo cameras are SD and don't capture anything...my spot is also in a blind spot. I need a good camera which captures low lighting in an underground garage. There's also no power outlets available.
2. I would prefer to have a front and rear camera which only activates and records when motion is detected.
3. I don't drive the car often. During the weekdays, I take it out to my office 2-3 days and it's only a 15-25 min drive away. I drive a bit on the weekends also, no long distances.
4. Relatively inexpensive, if possible. Under 100-150 if at all possible?
Thanks!
