MrSweary-
I got their older rear light/camera cheap. Already have £££s of front lights so just use a £30 Apeman off Amazon.

Cyclic front and back for me.
Same. They're a bit hefty, but it's nice to only have to worry about 2 things instead of 4 (2x cams & 2x lights) and I only tend to charge them after about 5-days worth of use. (5hrs commuting). The Cycliq app is truly shite tho.

To be fair I've had 30 years of road rage and dumb shit and never bothered - I'd have loved cheap cameras for the shit tonne of Aussie hit and runs I've had.
I guess my frustration in finally outweighed the dorkiness+camera cost. Or I just got old enough to think instead of trying to chase people down (which in Oz was almost impossible) and fight them I'd record, submit from the comfort of my home and see them fined/prosecuted.
Before I had cameras I used to very obviously vocalise dangerous driver's numberplates to them to make sure they knew I was taking note of their details. That often helped. So many emails to myself of dangerous driver number plates. Cameras make my brain have to work less in this regard. Wish the Apeman battery lasted longer though.
