Advice for action/bullet camera (commuting etc)

Hi,

I'm in the middle of a dooring dispute - with no witnesses, the driver is contesting the incident.

It's made me want a simple budget camera to stick on the front just in case - but ideally with motion stabilisation and reasonable in the dark (I saw an interesting bulletcam on a FB ad recently, but can't find it again).

Any recommendations? Budget is well below £100.

Cheers

    We have a variant of this one
    https://www.halfords.com/cycling/cyclin ... ion-camera
    with a clamp around mount that gives standard camera mount - which we then use a Gopro converter and a gopro bar mount to put on the bar.

    Night vision isn't ... but may be good enough under street lighting.

    I've yet to find a IR camera for the bike - let alone a reasonably priced one!

    I suspect the camera on the FB post was this one from Chilli Technology:

    I bought one on the back of the FB video, but the advertised velcro attachment was not included and they have yet to get one to me (despite them reassuring me I was on the list for one). I think it's a bit of a one-man-band type thing, it seems to be only one guy, Paul, who ever responds to communication. He's the one in all the videos.

    Thanks - they were the ones. Looking at the reviews, I may skip it just in case. I'll go for one of the NoPros on Amazon that has decent reviews.
