Don't have. I checked my app, only have collision detection and time lapse mode.

Not the same. Collision detection uses impact to determine a collision had happened. Someone walking pass your car and scratching your car may not generate enough impact for the cam to detect.

This is found in the user guide of A810, which is not available in A510.

No dashcam has big enough battery to tahan for parking mode, so it still uses car battery power.

I'm not sure whether time lapse mode is worse or motion detection. But I think motion detection should use less power as the cam doesn't save the video if it's not triggered by motion.

Imo, a parking mode macam handicapped if it cannot do motion detection, although one can argue the cam will be triggered by cars passing by, falling leaves or even insects crawling in front of the camera, giving you man6 false alarms.

Collision detection is unlikely to give you many false alarms compared to motion detection (I wonder how smart the touted AI in A810 is when it comes to rooting out false alarms).
In fact, the weakness of collision detection is it cannot detect vandalism that doesn't trigger the g sensor. Someone scratching your car? Sorry, the cam won't record him.

Imo, unneeded videos means power wastage, which means the parking mode operating time will be cut short if the battery voltage drops faster than otherwise.

I've been using DC for > 10 years and hence have transferred many cameras to newly purchased cars.

If it's held by double sided tape, you can "saw" through it with a thread or fine string. The remaining tape on windscreen can be scraped away using finger nail.

Yup, thread or string will cut away the tape. Dental floss works too
Edit: don't forcefully pull out the mount. Saw until it is very loose (can easily peel off) or fully separated. Else you will damage the tint. Don't ask me how I know lol.
