I drive for a congressman who resides in Boston. Being a congressman, of course, is risky for him and for those around him. In his home, a lot of hidden spy cameras are installed.

All of his cars, including the one I drive, have a Rearview Mirror Camera to monitor any signs of danger. The Rearview Mirror Camera has a built-in 1/4 inch digital CMOS color camera.

The camera can be pivoted 330 degrees such that it allows you to watch the outside or the inside of the car. I usually turn it towards the direction of the passenger on the right side so that I can see if someone is suspiciously following our car.

An additional wireless external camera which I have installed on the rear side of the car comes with the Rearview Mirror Camera. Compared with most hidden spy cameras I have seen, I also like its easy installation and playback functions.

A 3.6 inch TFT LCD (thin film transistor liquid crystal display) monitor is built into this Mirror Camera with Front & Rear Color Cameras, which allows instant playback for the users. I can also watch the video real-time at 30 FPS after choosing which side will need more protection on a case to case basis.

Having the Rearview Mirror Camera on your wheels can be very useful because it helps the driver look out for possible threats on the road. This is crucial, especially to my work.

I always make sure that the batteries are fully charged during interstate drives. For this, I simply use the car’s cigarette lighter. I also check that the memory space in the included 8 GB SD card of this Rearview Mirror Camera still has room.

I space it up by changing it to a 16 GB SD card, which this Mirror Camera with Front & Rear Color Cameras also supports. This Rearview Mirror Camera is easily installed in no time as it just needs to be clipped onto the existing rear view mirror.
