Why not use a power magic pro or similar, and have it constantly connected to a live 12v?

This means you'll always record when car is off too (parking lots etc), and the PMP will cut off power to camera if car battery gets low, so you're not left stranded.

Best of both worlds. You can even use different settings for Park Mode (when car is off) so it only records when there's motion or impact, vs continuously (at least my blackvue has this option).
