have a look on fleabay for act20720hd£45can set it to record on external power if needed.picture quality is ok (look at the rear view on some of my later vids )just bought another one to put in the car permanently for insurance purposes.only downside i've found is it cuts the clips into 20 min sections and leaves about a second gap between them.hope this helps
Is this act20 still waterproof, when connected to an external power source? Does it start/stop recording, when the external power is applied / removed?
For that price you can find 1st edition gopro's on eBay.Just sayin
Do go pros run from a permanent supply, and be waterproof while doing it? Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 4 Beta

I have to admit I never looked at go pro's cos I thought they'd be second hand and abused. Your go pro wasn't discrete, it made me smile. Did you get any decent footage ?
With a bit of bodging to the waterproof casing they can be made to but as the batteries run for about 2 hours and spares from china are about £15 for three of them there's little need!

I'm reading between his lines, but I suspect he wants to (as I do) leave the camera on the bike, in a fit and forget manner, until either a) he needs the evidence, or b) rides a nice bit of road that he actually wants to keep the film. As mentioned above, GoPros are not discrete, and would likely get nicked quicker than you can say "arse". While they are great cameras, they are not suited to what the OP wants.
Theres a free one somewhere in the bushes along the side of the A38. Just delete my footage first k?
