Last month I bought 2 new A118C dash cams for my new truck, 1 for the windshield and one for the rear window. I had them installed yesterday by an auto stereo shop in town. I told them I wanted them hard wired so that they would come on automatically when the truck is started. However, I realized this morning that they are always on. So I just came back from the store and they said I shouldn't worry about it, that they won't drain my battery down, that they are designed to be on all the time.
Are they right?
I really only want them in case of an accident. I live on a very busy street and the traffic would be constantly making them record cars going by. Is there any advantage to just leaving them on all the time? Or should I insist that they wire them the way I wanted in the first place?
