Yes... The good thing about this sort of cameras is they have plenty of parts. Battery, lens, casing, and even lens extension is available, for 808 key cam at least. I'm not sure about G1W, but I don't think it's that hard to replace. Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk
I think I'm leaning towards A118/B40. Can easily remove it on a hot day. At least with this one, you don't have to readjust your camera angle and it's more discreet too. From this thread at Lowyat, FoxOffer sounds like a reliable site. Many got cams from there. - https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/2967145 It's selling A118 at $69.90 with free shipping.

Ok... just placed an order for A118 + 32GB Transcend micro sd card at FoxOffer. Buy 1 first, if it's ok, get another one for my wife.
When does it arrive? Let me know how it goes. I will probably buy one too. Hahaha... Psst! Do you get a discount if you buy more?
Yeah... again, if I'm as lich as you, I won't have to think long. I'd just grab any USD 500 ones. Discount?
And getting a better one would be just asking for trouble. Especially if I plan to leave it in the car.
For Adrian... at least must get a BlackVue. At least... don't skimp. BlackVue DR650GW 2CH Exmor Full HD HD GPS Wi Fi Black 64GB Power Magic Pro | eBay BlackVue DR750LW 2CH Full HD Full HD LCD Wi Fi 64GB Car Blackbox GPS Module | eBay
I'm not asking you to buy the USD500 ones... If you have certain requirements, then you should get one that fits your requirement, not the cheapest. Now you have already spent more than USD100. But the new one looks much better. But power is still a problem for me... sigh...
Well, I would prefer capacitor one that can lasts minutes along with a battery that doesn't die for years under direct sun light, both in one package but none of them can do that unfortunately. That's why I decided on the A118 for: - its small discrete size - clip-on so that if I were to reattach it, I don't have to adjust the camera angle again and again which I'd have to do with form factor like G1W, mobius, etc. - battery instead of a capacitor so that all settings are saved before and after From the looks of it, only A118 makes sense to me. A118 is not the cheapest. At the moment, G1W seems to be the cheapest ok one.
Another good one that meets my needs is SJ4000. Replacement battery is sold too. But this one confirmed cannot leave in the car because it looks like a GoPro. SJ4000 Full HD Waterproof Action Helmet Camera [SJ4000]FoxOffer - Wholesale, OEM, Drop shipping from China directly SJ4000 | Dash Cam Talk
Personally, I much prefer battery if the capacitor doesn't last very long. Batteries are really cheap, and they are supposed to be easy to change. Unfortunately, I just checked that G1W doesn't have power plug for battery. Soldering is required... Oh well.
Yup, most of these cheap ones require soldering... mobius's battery has the plug thing, SJ4000 battery can be easily replaced too. Oh well... cheap ma, can't expect much. Me poor ppl... what to do.
GoPro is too big, and there's no LCD, which is a big drawback. SJ4000 is a GoPro clone with good quality wide angle display, and it has LCD!
