I am still using an Escort Max 360 but otherwise have the same setup with the mount and the camera. I've been through all kinds of different combinations and agree this is the best.

The M1 works exactly as described with 1 minute clips, it also has an app that you can see the video on your phone. The single power source is a huge upside, avoids the need to run anything extra and no cables on your A-pillar near the airbag. The only downside from what I can tell is there's no recording while the car is off, so if you need parking mode this might not be the best option for you.

One install note, where the plastic cover opens up to go around the mirror post there's enough room to sneak the wire out there, so right behind the Blendmount bracket. No functional difference just less wire showing if that matters to you. I also found the blinking light on the camera annoying so covered it up with one of those small black stickers made to hide LEDs on electronics.
