I'm thinking in buying this camera, I don't care about parking mode recording, I only want it for when I'm driving. My car cigarette lighter outlet is ignition based, meaning I could just plug it in there and leave it plugged in the cigarette lighter. I won't drain my battery, but the camera will shut off once the internal battery drains. My question is, what is the inconvenient of having the camera on only when you use the car (besides not being able to use it in park mode and besides having to reset the time)?
Those are the only two inconveniences. If you don’t mind the time being off or not having the parking mode, the cigarette lighter adapter will work fine.
I literally JUST completed the battery replacement on my 5 year old N2 using a RUclips video. Amazon battery was less than $15. Took longer than I thought but my hands are a mess w arthritis and eyes aren’t the best. Did it though and having a celebratory beer!

When my N2 shut off immediately after removing power replacing the N2's internal battery fixed the issue although difficult to replace.
Yes, I bet replacing the internal battery would fix it. Small battery packs degrade faster.
Battery needs replacement. There are tutorials in youtube on how to do it.
Oh, ok I ended up ordering the N4 Nexus Pro but still have it.

@@dacur good to know it can be replaced. I’ll have to dig into the RUclips videos to find it too.
I am *ready* to start it up and reset the time.
Yes, seems like I’m having to reset it all the time unless plugged into an external power source.
