that looks sleek. Ive been trying to find one that mounts more flush to the window and doesnt stick out.
Few questions, does this have a park mode? like can it record is something happens when your car is locked? what is the difference between battery and capacitor in a dashcam? Do you have few photos of it mounted? what other features does it have?
Like I said I love it, it mounts where I hardly notice it and stays out of the way entirely.
It does have a park mode. I don't have it hooked up, but if you do want that, I'd recommend getting this too:

That makes sure your battery can't be drained (it will shut off if the voltage gets too low).
In terms of battery vs capacitor, the capacitor is better for the long term/ more durable. A battery typically gets old and dies after a while, and heat and cold makes that even shorter. My old one that had a battery only lasted a few months before the temperatures got to it and killed it for good.
Some other notable features:
- you can connect a GPS to it (more hardware needed, but always good for recording speed on the video)
- you can connect an external mic to it
--- I'm sure there's many more, I just don't know everything it can do
Here's some quick photos of mine mounted:
