I never have to touch the power button.
The video constantly writes over itself in an endless cycle. Mine is broken into seperate video files everytime the camera turns on and off. While I'm driving it saves into seperate 5-8 minute segments. I have a 32GB card and I find that lets me review video that are about 10 days old, depending on how much footage I have during that time.
If my car is turned off and the camera senses a big vibration (like someone hit your car), it is supposed to turn on and start recording. I've never had this happen to me yet, so I can't say how well that works.

Interesting, didn't know it had the g-force sensor built in on that dash cam as well. Was one of the features I was looking at as well, and seeing as the Blackvue was the only other one with this feature, I'm leaning towards getting the A118 now. Just considering if the Blackvue is really worth the price or if I should get the one you have. The A118 seems like a good dash cam within its price point, as the Blackvue is more expensive. Again, probably will lean towards getting the A118.
