BlackVue - DR900X-1CH Plus

You'd get better advice from the nerds in the dashcam subreddits. But I have a blackvur and it's great. Typically Viofo is the one to get though.

I live in South Louisiana and I've had a regular BlackVue (non-box model) for 7 years. Never had any issues with overheating. And my second one is the 900X which is prone to overheating.

I bought a used BlackVue off of eBay (so slightly more affordable, but still expensive) and it's been doing great in the heat. Have been running it for 3 years. DR900X

I like how you had to add Black Edition like it matters with the dash cam lol I got a 4K BlackVue with front and rear. The app is bunk. But I also don't have the cellular add on. And the footage only lasts for 24hrs so if I don't download it that day it's gone forever

I have had a Blackvue 900X in my 2022 ORP and love it. Rear view came in handy a few months ago. Check my post history in r/dashcams.

A little out of your price range but 70mai A810 is really good. I have it on most of my cars. I have a couple of A800s, which are pretty good (and closer to your budget) and a BlackVue 900s and 900x. BlackVue cameras are good quality but the app is so bad. I'm considering replacing both my BlackVue with the upcoming 70mai T800 camera (they are having a Kickstarter now - launches in August 2025)

Blackvue 900 works for me, front and rear. Minimalistic look.

Blackvue forward and back camera on mine 750 or 900 series are great!

Viofo's are a great value, but be cautious if you live in a high heat area. After 6 months of living in Phoenix (very hot summers, like 115 degrees), my A129 Pro Duo died. Replaced it under warranty and the second died within the next year because of over heating. Did thorough research and picked up a BlackVue 900X Plus and it's been rock solid for the last 2 years.

Blackvue dr900x in my RS5. Love it.

Dongar mirror adapter makes it cake, I just went with the garmin 67w, works great. Did a blackvue DR900x in the wife's car and it's great! For the price difference and easy install I'm happy with the garmin.

My blackvue 900x ive owned for going on 5 years now. blackvue newest generation uses the sony starvis censor for much improved clarity. You also cant go wrong with viofo dashcams with said sensor as those are cheaper

Currently using Blackvue. 4K front, 2K rear. Both cars.

BlackVue DR900X is brilliant kit. Lovely parking mode and cloud recording, small and unobtrusive for front and rear recording.

For fleet we often do blackvue DR-series with a tamperproof case. That way, it can not be unplugged. Some options for LTE models for remote viewing capabilities. Pricing will vary depending on where you are.

Blackvue DR900X because of the smaller size. Zero issues with eyesight

I have a Blackvue DR900x that's worked in both my gen2 and now my gen3 For my Gen3, I used the following to mount it: Blendmount Mirror Mount as I have a tinted windshield. Dongar Adapter to tie into the overhead OEM adapter (above the sunglass/light console). You can get it with either constant or accessory power, but the adapter has all the wires so I just spliced into what I needed (rather splice the adapter then the OEM plug). 1" custom bracket from thedashcamstore for the rear window mount (this works for both gens)

I have a Blackvue DR900X Plus. Does ok as sometimes plate numbers are hard to read, and the "Plus" brings a rear facing cam as well. I have had it for a few years and it was installed in the Wrangler I had before.

I have the BlackVue DR900x plus. There are newer models 970x. I have the came paired with 3 battery packs hardwired to the interior fuse box for rapid charging. They keep the cam powered for 55+ hours when parked (most important part for me). Also got an old t-mobile portable hotspot (cool pad) added 2G/$10/per month plan. More than enough when going out for work shopping etc. At home the can connect home WiFi and records until battery dies. Happy so far.

I got mine from Black Vue after reading up on them. I paid about $249. Promptly got rear ended a month later and it paid for itself. I knew nothing about dash cams but their site was informative

We got a Blackvue DR900X front and rear dash cam with battery backup so that it will record while the vehicle is parked. The installers did a great job of hiding all the wires.

I'm running an older Blackvue, DR900X. Get one with the Starvis 2 sensor, it's a big leap in quality. Avoid ones with an internal battery, you want one with a super capacitor. Ones with battery are junk. Stick with a name brand, some good examples are Blackvue, Thinkware and Viofo. Garmin are decent, but their tech is a bit dated. If it's less than about $100 for a front only and $150 for a dual channel, it's probably junk.

I use Blackvue 900x and above 4k and has parking mode and wifi connectivity! I can even show you videos of the quality of it. A bit pricy. Has low voltage but I do notice if I don't drive for a week it does weaken. So I just disconnect it when it sits in my garage or drive way if I store the car.
