What Ads shown are not controlled by the channel. That is a KZbin Ad you saw because Ridge wallet is paying KZbin to place an ad to you because you are who Ridge is trying to advertise to. Ads you see may or may not be related to anything you see in the video. Ads you see are based on what KZbin things you like and who the advertiser is targetting. The video is not sponsored because Ridge and Aviator did not pay me to review their products. Aviator only sent me a free wallet to review, which I do mention in the video. I differentiate the two differently, I suppose. KZbin requires creators to indicate when a video is sponsored, or free products are given, etc...all grouped together. When that checkbox is checked the video will automatically indicate that the video is a paid promotion.

I had a comment that said the new batches are better sealed. Not sure if this is true. Try to watch how I did it again and also try to slightly twist the case as you try to pry it apart.

There's really no reason to buy a lot of things that exist. People don't NEED the big lux house, a fancy car, expensive clothes, the latest smart home tech, expensive lattes, new phones every 2 years, expensive wallets, and on and on... But in a free world you can spend your hard earned money on the things you like. Of course, don't go broke over it. If you find value in an expensive wallet then buy it only knowing what you ARE getting and ARE NOT getting from it. Don't buy things just because KZbinrs, TikTokers, or Instagramers are telling you it's cool. Decide for yourself.

@FrakkingCreations people buy expensive things to be noticed nobody will notice someone spent over $100 for a wallet besides the people you tell and then they will wonder why 🤣

Not all people but expensive things to showmoff, but most do.

@ Thank You

You're welcome

Thanks for the info.

It can keep phones with cases cooler, but you have to keep a few things in mind. 1) Depending on the case material and whether or not the phone' back contacts the inside of the case directly, it could affect the efficiency of how well the cooling will work. Some materials don't transfer heat as well as others. Additionally, as I mentioned in the video, the outside back of the phone or phone case should touch the cooling plate for best cooling effect. From the looks of the images of the case you are looking at, it looks like the outside of the case (MagSafe and charging coil parts) is flush, which should allow the cooling plate to directly contact the case when attached to the case, so I believe it will be ok. 2) How cool the phone can get will depend on also on how much heat the phone is generating at the time. But in general, this cooler can help cool the phone. Also keep in mind that the phone doesn't only get hot at the battery. It will also get hot at the CPU/GPU when used hard. Because the CPU/GPU is located not at the center of the phone, the CPU/GPU areas will still get warm but the cooler can still help cool the phone (when compared to no cooler) as the heat transfers from the hot areas to the cooler areas. TELESIN does make a car mount for this cooler. I provided a link to it in the video description (Suction phone car mount). This is using their ring mount, which this cooler can magnetically connect to. Hope this helps. The following situation is for phones or cases that use an add-on MagSafe ring. As I mentioned in the video, this cooler should still be able to have the cooling plate be in contact with the phone or phone case by using the telescoping feature. Just note that if using a TELESIN ring mount, the ring mount may be too thick causing the telescoping feature to not be able to get the cooling plate to touch the phone or phone case backing. I do have an idea for getting around this, but haven't had a chance to try it out yet. If there is enough interest, I can look into it.

@@FrakkingCreations Thank you! I may try the mount, but I may go with the LISEN cooler instead. According to some of the reviews, the car mount may not fit with the cooler, the magnets don't line up.

NP. Whichever one you choose, enjoy!

I believe empty fuse slots can't really have anything running on them since no fuse equals no power. Though, I don't know if there are any scenarios where that isn't true. I would make sure in the vehicle documentation that it really isn't used for anything else and is really empty/spare. I have heard some people say that there may be a lower limit on those lines for how much power they can handle. Not sure if it's true. I would just not pull more that 10 A from those lines. Again if the documentation says it should be lower for the slot then follow that. Most dash cams are good with a 3 A fuse. Check with your dash cam documentation to be sure.

What kinds of things would you like to know? Maybe that would be ideas for another video on the OBDLink MX+

Thanks for sharing the tip!

I haven't had any problems with spares so far. Not drawing too much power from the spare slot would be a good thing to keep in mind. Most dash cams will run fine with 3A fuse. As for spares for BATT, I think that would be dependent on the vehicle.

These are definitely not for everyone. Every type of hand warmer has its pros and cons so definitely go with the one that suits your needs best. There are some pretty good rechargeable ones nowadays and even one that has 2 warmers in one that can magnetically connect as one or separate as two. I have this linked in the video description for anyone interested.

It depends. Here are some things to note. 1) some vehicles have cigarette lighter sockets that stay on when the vehicle is turned off. If you use a dash cam in such a socket then you would need one that supports parking mode. In particular one that can detect the voltage of the car battery. This way it would allow you to set the voltage value that it would power off at, thereby protecting the battery from full discharge. 2) Most new vehicles don't have always on sockets (some do like SUVs that have an always on socket like in the trunk area). If you find a socket that seems to be on when the vehicle is turned off, you have to make sure that you test it after 10 minutes or more with the vehicle off. Nowadays some sockets stay powered for a few minutesal after the vehicle is turned off, then self power off after. Best to check the documentation of your vehicle.

@ yeah I ordered a cam to supports parking mood and I have a cigarette lighter socket to stays on so I just wanted to make sure I wouldn’t kill my battery. Thank you

Ah ok. Just make sure your dash cam can detect the car battery voltage internally and provides a setting for you to set the cutoff voltage.

Not all parking modes are created equal. Some dash cams require a hardwire kit that detects the vehicle's voltage (and not the dash cam itself) and if you use one of those types of dash cams it won't be able to properly cutoff at a particluar voltage to protect your battery.

@ okay thank you. When I get it I’ll check it out to make sure

That's only really true of much much older vehicles without immobiliser systems. Can't do that with modern cars that have immobiliser systems or keyless entry/keyless start systems. Before keyless entry systems became available, and physical keys were still used... Immobiliser systems in the vehicles required car keys that have a matching wireless chip inside them in order to be able to start the vehicle. This system would prevent hotwiring and copied keys (without a matching chip inside) from working. It pretty much prevented these kinds of thefts. Now that keyless entry systems have come into the picture, their weaknesses are currently being exploited. Things like Relay attacks, roll jams, can bus injection, etc are being used now.

Grazie per aver fornito queste informazioni. Sono informazioni utili da sapere. Sono specifiche per i veicoli Mercedes o per qualche altra marca di veicolo?

Wenn Sie ein gutes, ordnungsgemäß für die Dashcam installiertes Kabelset haben, sollte die Batterie nicht entladen werden. Wenn doch, dann nur sehr wenig. Andere Systeme im Fahrzeug würden wahrscheinlich mehr entladen. Beachten Sie jedoch Folgendes: 1) Batterien entladen sich mit der Zeit selbst. Wie schnell das geht, hängt von der Temperatur und dem Zustand der Batterie ab. 2) Selbst wenn das Kabelset die Batterie nicht mehr entlädt, laufen in den meisten modernen Fahrzeugen immer noch Elektroniken, die die Batterie langsam entladen. Dies gilt für Systeme wie schlüssellosen Zugang, Fernzugriff usw. Wenn das Kabelset also die Dashcam ausschaltet, kann Ihr Fahrzeug die Batterie trotzdem entladen. Wie lange das Entladen dauert, hängt von vielen Faktoren ab, z. B. vom Zustand der Batterie, dem Ladestand/der verbleibenden Reservekapazität der Batterie und dem Zustand des Ladesystems des Fahrzeugs. Bei manchen Leuten kann es also 3 Tage dauern, bei anderen 1 Woche oder länger.

I have the same car. Replace the main and auxiliary battery then perform computer reset. If not you will get strange things happening to your electric systems in the car.

What did you do to do a computer reset?

So it did not turn on after you turned your vehicle on?

Yeah it didn’t, I tried plugging my radar detector into the fit dvr and that didn’t power on either

That is very strange. How long did you wait after the vehicle was turned on? Do you know if the sensor module you tapped into is still powered? If so then there could be a connectivity issue to the FitDVR. The FitDVR should turn on once the vehicle is on. I would check all the connections and make sure all connectors are pushed in all the way. Did you select a FitDVR that supports your vehicle? If that still doesn't work, I would try contacting FitDVR support. I'm wondering if you may have a defective unit.

@@FrakkingCreationsYes it’s compatible with the vehicle. Made sure all the connectors were plugged in and it still didn’t power on. Do you happen to know any alternative brands to FitDVR?

Also, make sure the round connector to the FitDVR clicks when inserted. I've heard of Dongar but haven't used them before. They do not have the fancy LCD screen to show the voltages. Just a simple cable.

Thanks for the feedback. Appreciate you taking a moment to comment to let us know. We will have to keep that in mind for future videos
