Things I Learned using the iSportgo Dashcam
The mount only cost $9.99 on Amazon.com, and is not a permanent to the car, so you can easily move this between cars.
This was put on a Subaru Legacy rearview mirror.
Having the GoPro on the rearview mirror isn't a distraction. You can move it up so that it's behind the rearview mirror.
The iSportgo comes with 13 compatible joints. The whole thing comes in a small brown box, the GoPro mount was in a small bag. You have to put it together. Think of it as if IKEA was to create a rearview mirror dash mount, this is what they would create.
The GoPro's TimeWarp works great as a Dashcam. Simply click on the side button when you want to go in real-time.
If the drive event wasn't exciting, you can always delete the video.
Another option is to use the Hindsight option on the GoPro Hero 9. With hindsight, you can record 15 or 30 seconds before you press the shutter button. This allows you to record things only when they happen - such as an accident. The downside is that using hindsight will use battery time.
