How many people have dashcams? What type? Hardwired, or cigarette lighter?

I run a garmin x310 wired to the usb port behind the rear view mirror. Runs great and have had zero issues over the last year. I highly recommend it.How many people have dashcams? What type? Hardwired, or cigarette lighter?
I just ordered one.I have a Fitcamx. I like it because its powered by the rain sensor and it looks factory and clean with no cords or shit stuck to the glass.

Does it record when parked?Fitcamx ....... because it looks like a factory install - no visible wires
I replaced my first dash cam, after being asked by a fellow in a parking lot, which "brand" of dash cam I had installed. After talking with him, I think he was "interested" in a camera and mine caught his "attention", stuck on the windshield.

No. It only records while the car is running. But I believe you can hardwire it so it records all the time. But the drain on the battery and hacking wires does not appeal to me.It records while parked?
Would you mind taking a picture of the power port by the mirror? I looked and couldn't see one on my car. I'm not sure if my car doesn't have one or I'm missing it in my dark garage. Base 2026 GT.I have a Vantrue N4 running through the USB behind the rearview mirror. It's nice, but I might have consider a different one if I hadn't already bought this one.
