Tomi, I found a spare USB cable, so I just use that in the coach, and I move the entire camera + windshield mount into the coach on driving days. Since it’s just a windshield suction cup, it only takes a minute to move it back and forth. I just leave the long cable in the CR-V routed through the doors, etc. I use a short USB cable in the coach from the camera to the USB power port in the dash. Yes, it keeps recording new video over the oldest video. I have it set to start recording as soon as it receives power (i.e. when I turn on the car) so I never have to think about it. -Mike

Yes, I move it from the toad to the RV on moving days.

Depends on how you define “useful”. We haven’t been involved in or witnesses any accidents where it would come in handy, and we haven’t seen any meteors. Mostly I want it to be there, forgotten until it’s needed. Once we get into new scenic parts of the country we may pull some driving video off it for the blog. I also plan to use it as a teeny hand-held camcorder during our RV purchase walkthrough next week.

Wire now routed behind plastic A-pillar cover. Thanks Caleb!

They’re switched – we need to leave the key in “Accessory” position while towing, but the hookup to the RV includes a charge line from the RV to the toad, so that the battery doesn’t get drained.

Caleb, thanks! I didn’t want to screw up the airbag so didn’t mess with it. I just downloaded some instructions for removing the pillar cover and it looks like it will be easy to do what you suggest.
