THE BEST BATTERY FOR YOUR DASHCAM AND PARKING MODE THAT I'VE EVER TESTED

[@lloydedmonds8775]

Awesome Review! Definitely something I’m interested in to add with a Dash Cam. I’m interested in full coverage (driving/parked) due to so many car jacking and catalytic converters being stolen. Thanks for sharing… I’m just learning

[@prebaned]

Need the three wire output hardwire with the ACC trigger wire. Works great in the B124X park mode now works instantly when engine off. No more relying on camera G-Sensor to wait for no movement to start park mode. Two wire output was no good in traffic, toll booths, etc.. putting cameras in park mode.

Getting my PowerCells 8 on Tuesday, where do u recommend I put in my jeep Grand Cherokee.

[@EastCoastJeepSRT]

Underneath the passenger seat.

[@CinephileBanda]

Very informative. Does this battery pack work with Garmin mini 2 by simply connecting the usb port to this, for constant monitoring ?

[@rolandocavallo56]

I Powercell sono carissimi si possono alimentare le dashcam con dei normali powerbank però bisogna rinunciare alla modalità parcheggio e optare per la registrazione continua come ho fatto io. Partendo dall'accendisigari, si entra nel powerbank, si esce e si passa in un interruttore, si esce dall'interruttore e si va' alla dashcam. Viaggiando il powerbank sì ricarica e contemporaneamente da' energia alla dashcam. A motore spento il powerbank continua ad alimentare la dashcam. L'interruttore é una comodità per quando sei in garage e non serve registrare. Ripeto niente time laps ma registrazione normale continua.

[@derunsichtbare2801]

Is this battery also suitable for BMW? I get an error message when a device consumes power with the engine off.

[@EastCoastJeepSRT]

@@derunsichtbare2801 it’s for any vehicle and you’ll fuse tap it to a circuit that only has power when they vehicle is running/on. It’ll charge while driving only, and then when the car is off will power the dashcam. This way you’ll never drain your battery

[@bwbs7410]

can you show the side view cameras?

[@Samlol23_drrich]

I feel like a moron because I have 3 cars and hardwired all 3 dash cams using the car battery. But I can’t figure out how to wire this. I have a hardwire kit that came with my dash cam. It has one wire to acc and one to always on fuses. Am I tossing that away and using the hardwire kit that came with the battery? I know one connection goes to the dash cam and connection 2 goes to the accessory fuse. Does the third wire plug into the battery instead of the always on fuse? I would assume so. So it’s gotta be a pretty long wire to run from under the seat to the fuse box AND then to the dashcam. Does that sound right? I’m sure when it arrives in a few days I’ll be able to figure it out. Not using any lighter plug. Thanks.

[@EastCoastJeepSRT]

You fuse tap the power cable from the parking mode battery. That’s it. Then just run your dashcam power cable with the cigarette adapter to that battery. All set. Do you have IG? Send me a message and I’ll send you pictures that might help

[@HAMMER_2.2]

Since I don't drive my truck for days at a time, I've been thinking of flush mounting a 100w -200w solar panel into the lid of my bed mounted toolbox. Then use the solar panel to basically top off one of these Powercell batteries/ and keep it charged while I'm not driving the truck frequent enough. I'd also like to use the battery with a extra piggyback pack for a couple other accessories that can drain truck battery including some alarm sensors and a wifi hotspot dedicated for the Connected App.

[@life_with_emely]

There’s an adapter available so you can take your battery back in your house and plug it into an outlet to charge

I'm searching a PowerBank for my dashcam to plug between the car plug and the dashcam, i want the Powerbank to turn automatticaly on when i start the car and automatically start recording the dashcam while charging but that continue powering the dashcam once parked. And with a OFF button so that i can turn the powerbank off once arrive home to stop the dashcam manually and not draining the powerbank... Anyone have something to recommand ? THANKS :)

[@EastCoastJeepSRT]

The PMP drains from your car battery but shuts off when it gets low. The separate battery which I recommend doesn’t affect your car battery at all. I’d skip the PMP and get a B-124X to power the camera when parked. Just get another Blackvue dashcam for your sides. You’ll place the front cam on one side and the rear on the other.

It only charges when the vehicle is on, so once the battery is low or drained you’ll have to drive. Normal driving will charge it quickly, so day to day you’re fine
