ok let me describe my wish list more precisely:

it's called a "inconspicuous budget wearable dashcam action camera"

any good suggestion or mod for A119 to achieve this?

Spycamera is it?

*
for spy cam i would rather use eyeglass one, but very hard to find a good quality recording.

back to the dash cam, i got this diy suggestions:

1. buy 0.4x wide angle lens adapter for smart phone.

2. install AutoGuard Dash Cam from Android.

3. mount your spare phone on your car dashboard with gps holder

tada! you got yourself a diy dashcam already!

save you some money, now buy me coffee.

The only thing Eken H9 have that the Viofo A119 doesn't is the wifi...

should compare 1080p 60fps to be fair.

beside wifi also price, smaller form factor, plenty of accessories, wider view angle 170d.

hahaha cann.. just wear some sort of vest, put in one of the pocket, cut out a lens hole, and put the powerbank at your back.  biggrin.gif

for that matter, wearing a vest itself is already conspicuous, if use vest any phone can do instead.

basically in search of wide angle, video looping, 1080p 30fps, small, budget dash/body/action cam combo.
