Vantrue E1 Pro Starvis 2 IMX678 PlatePix & HDR / The best 4k single channel camera in 2025?

Got it installed and set up, but currently using the cigarette lighter adapter for power.

Essentially invisible from inside and as close to invisible as possible from outside the cabin.

I'll hardwire it when I have the time to get under the dash but the day before we host a large Thanksgiving dinner does not permit me time to do a proper install without the lovely Mrs_Bob smacking me with a frying pan.
