I've had a DDPai M6 Plus hardwired in my car for over 2 years and it's worked perfectly until it suddenly stopped working correctly some weeks ago. The red light on the camera indicates that the camera is receiving power but it never starts recording. However, when I take the camera out of the car and plug it into a micro USB connected to a regular power socket the camera starts up and starts recording correctly. This indicates to me that whilst the car is providing some power to the camera it isn't providing enough power for the camera to start up recording. Is that possible? Has anyone else experienced this problem? Is there a solution?

Therefore Improvements may be had by fiddling around. To the lower left of the video what you can see is a reflection from the dash/ windscreen To the right upper part of the video, you will see a dark patch, this is the HUGE mount for the mirror in my car, but I am happy with what the cam picks up for me. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oew-zLf-uVI

Are some brands better than others? I say this as I've paid big money for SanDisk cards in the past and they failed within a few months.
