I am usually pretty decent with electrical/wiring stuff. Not today - I just cooked the tiny $125 wide angle video camera I was putting in my car. (The plan was to put the DV camcorder in a padded box - it has a remote - and then use the little remote cam and stereo mics mounted to the cage or basically anywhere I want, inside or outside.)
CRAP! |

I use the same setup. I stick the camera to the rear window with blue tack. Your problem is that you need a regulated power supply for the camera. They don't like more than about 13 volts. I picked up a diy regulator kit from Jaycar (like Radio shack) that did the job.
