Dash Cams

I'm interested in getting a dash cam. They are all the rage in Russia. Does anyone know where to get a quality unit?

Theres a huge thread somewhere comparing different brands as well as if you do a google search. There are some that have better quality at night and some have more functions. I'm looking at the blackvue dual channel wifi one.

I got it yesterday. Came from Shenzhugioujiwontigzen China. Mounted it in the CIVIC (yeah, I drive a Civic to work, so what?) and it lost charge after 30 min. I guess I should have charged it up more. It came with a car adapter, but my Sirius XM unit is using the power port. So this weekend when I take the 335 out to Key West, I'll dash cam it up, down US 1. So far I like it a lot. I haven't tried downloading any videos off it yet. I guess I'll get to that if it records an event worth looking at. I got it for accuracy reasons in case of a traffic event. Hell, it was only $50 bucks. Oh yeah, so when I got home, my black grilles arrived! Popped them on and the ride looks SWEET!
