What if I don't want to hardwire the dash cam. My vehicle has a port that charges even when the vehicle is shut off. How can I use that instead of hardwiring? null

Hi There, if you prefer to not hardwire it, you can use the OBD Cable or the cigarette port. However, only the hardwiring and the OBD cable will enable Parking Mode. If using a cigarette port with constant power, the Dash Cam will stay on when the vehicle is off, but won't go into Parking Mode, and this may cause battery drainage, as in Parking Mode, the Dash Cam has a battery protection feature to avoid battery drainage.
