I also ended up putting them in a battery bag as I linked. For $12 it's cheap insurance.

My problem is now that my dash cam can't handle the hot temperatures.
Ah...so is your dashcam....damage prone? *puts on sunglasses* Ahhhhh *cue CSI Miami intro *

Are you guys using the extra battery so that these cameras dont put stress on the car battery? I thought these dash cams had limits on how much battery they can take up in parking mode.
