You know, you didn't need to run the ground all the way to the fuse box, just the nearest bare metal or screw would have been fine

Good job JD, I just replaced my factory cig lighter socket with something similar.

Thank you for the video. I have a question (I bought an exact one from AliExpress, but it has not arrived yet): I wonder if the usb port switches off automatically when the power supply is cut? I want to use it for my car tracker, which I am going to hide somewhere inside my car, and I do not want it to be switched off when I turn my car off and not switched on automatically when I turn the car on again.

You will need to install it to a constant fuse, which does not turn off.

Hi James, Great clip. Can I just get the power from the lighter already so I don't have to go through all these wiring?

If you hard wired your dash cam and it's always on, doesn't that drain your battery?
@JDWIRED Жыл бұрын
It has a module to prevent that. The module is also considering the ACC wire to be connected to help with this. If you install the das cam as required you should have no problems.

The wire was not long enough to reach the fuse box. I added additional wire to reach the fuse box. Time stamp 6:26. I also added the material I used in the description.

Yes, Connect the ACC wire to a constant fuse.

@@JDWIRED I mean not using the power button to have it on. It seems it's a particularity of this newer model. I've ordered the older one to have it turning on whenever I enable the ACC.

thats a horrible location bro u should have installed in above on the right side of the control that way a passengers knees dont hit it when wires are plugged into it plus the control panel would look upgraded

No room in the control panel and no complaints on the location. I did install one on the center console in my Tundra truck which gave the idea for my vehicle.

No where do I mention this process takes 20 min. I do a lot of research before I even film the video. Then I try to figure what is best way to install the device. I do this to help views with their installations.
