BlackVue - DR590X-2CH Plus

Absolutely this. I just installed a BlackVue DR590X-Plus 2CH with his ASC connector yesterday and everything works beautifully and I appreciate the personal touches he put into the package.

I use a BlackVue dr590x 2channel. It’s been fantastic. My wife’s accord has a FitCamX. I like it better because of its ease of install and integration into the rear view mirror sensor pack. It’s way more discreet than my BlackVue. Both are solid cameras though in my experience.

So I ended up going with the Blackvue DR590 2 camera system. My original plan was to follow the fuse tap options listed in the original post but now I'm considering just plugging the battery in when I see a low battery alert.

Fitcam is very mediocre.  A blackvue is superior from a device/app/reliability standpoint.  I have mine installed and i can’t see it from the driver seat so I would say that is discrete.  

Older cam?  My previous blackvue died but it was in service for 7 years and was an older model with poor cooling.   My new one tells me when starts recording, changes mode, has an event or has a problem with the card - so if I don’t hear the prompts then I know something is off.  

Fitcam failed us on the wife’s car when she was in a wreck.  It’s loop recording stopped without any way for us to know.  I would not purchase another and their software and app suck compared to other options.  People like it because it installs easy but it is mediocre.   A Blackvue dr590 is way better and still easy to install especially since Ford gave us functioning spare fuse slots for both acc and batt+.  

The Blackvue DR590X is the usual go to for the least obtrusive. I have a knockoff version from Focuway but I would not recommend it unless you're really strapped for cash. 

All 3 of my household vehicles have BlackVue590X series. Excellent quality and would recommend. Hardwired them as well myself. They also come with cigarette lighter plug as well.

You don't want to hardwire it in because you like having wires everywhere? Or is it because you like to take up one of your outlets? Honestly running wires and tapping the fuse box is the clean easy way to do it. Blackvue DR-590 with front and rear camera and park mode installed on mine in about 20 minutes in the driveway, barely one banana job, and has worked great for the last two years.

We have the Blackvue 2 channel ( front and rear ) .

Bought a blackvue dual front & back camera with parking mode. Watched YouTube videos of day and night performance and readability of license plates. Video clips are corded in 60 second increments with overlap start and finish. Last month got rear ended by person on the phone. They didn’t know I had a camera and they called the cops. I downloaded the event clip from the mobile app and was able to show the video to the police on the spot. The other driver got a ticket for using the phone.
