Hey there!
So I currently have two dash cams on my car. An Ausdom A261 and an Ausdom AD170. I wired them and tapped them both together into my interior fuse box. To make things simple and cleaner I had them share the same fuse. They're always on---and in such I set my cameras to run on parking mode.
However, I found out the AD170 doesn't have parking mode. So now if I don't drive my car daily then my battery will die. ****.
Now I could just tap into a new fuse and have my AD170 (which I set up for the rear) to only turn on when the car is on... but I'd rather opt to upgrade to a decent (and relatively inexpensive) cam that HAS parking mode.
So, what would you folks suggest that's inexpensive and has parking mode? I'm from Canada so the seller would have to sell internationally (if I cannot find one within the country).
I would love to get another AD261 but they've been discontinued---so has the AD260 it seems.
If it's on Amazon.ca with prime that's even better. So far cheapest I've seen is this "Autolover" one.
edit: quick search shows that it's also known as the GT300
edit: It's currently on flash sale on Gear best for $15 USD. Seems incredibly cheap and images seem just 'ok'. I purchased it anyways to see if I like it. In the mean time I'm still open to suggestions as one with better quality is always appreciated.
