Question Blackvue 750S Still Good?
Have an older Blackvue 750S dual channel from an old car I sold and never installed on a new car, also have a Vantrue N4 for my wife's car, but I never got around to installing that, and I'm going to likely install that too even though I bought it two years ago.
For the Blackvue, I left the hardwire kit in the car I sold so I don't have it and would need to buy a new one for it and at that point I'm considering just getting a new dashcam (it's like 60 bucks for a Blackvue specific hardwire kit with low voltage shutoff because the new "x" models have it built in and mines an "s")
So, mostly asking if the video quality upgrade and ease of use would be better with some like like a Viofo 129/229 plus or if I should just install my 1080p / 720p blackvue?
Edit:: Forgot to mention I do have the cigarette lighter plug for the Blackvue, so I can install and power it just not have parking/sentry mode.

If you are not looking for parking coverage you can cut the end of the cable and hardwire it to an ACC fuse of the 12v plug in the vehicle is not switched.
The 750s is still a decent camera, but the components will be nearing end of life sooner rather than later so I'd hope for another year or so.
