Should you require additional preventative measures to ensure your peace of mind, we offer standalone battery packs such as the BlackVue B-124X, for purchase that do not draw power from your vehicle battery while the car is parked. We certainly understand, and thankfully there is an alternative solution for you. Prefer not to use your car battery at all for parking mode? Perhaps youРІР‚в„ўre still not convinced that you wonРІР‚в„ўt be left stranded, or you have other reasons for not wanting to touch your vehicleРІР‚в„ўs electrical system. We strongly recommend the use of a device like the Power Magic Pro, or taking advantage of built-in low-voltage cutoff settings when using your dashcam in parking mode. A healthy car battery should be able to keep a dashcam operating safely in parking mode for at least a day or two, if not more, before reaching the low voltage cutoff level.

Dash cam manufacturers prevent this unwanted dead battery situation by providing battery-discharge prevention accessories such as the Power Magic Pro (for use with BlackVue cameras) or built-in low-voltage cutoff solutions like that of Thinkware dashcams that monitor the car batteryРІР‚в„ўs voltage level and will gracefully shut down the camera if the power drops below an established safety threshold (typically around 12.0 or 12.5v). But in general, the principles weРІР‚в„ўre discussing here hold true.Р”Р„nother major reason why battery death should not be an issue when using your dashcam in parking mode is thanks to a feature known as РІР‚Сљlow-voltage cutoffРІР‚Сњ.

Of course, modern vehicles do tend to already have plenty of other electronics and systems in them that consume varying levels of power in the background while the car or truck is parked (alarm systems, keyless entry receivers, automatic software updates, etc), and overall battery performance does decline with the age of the battery (a 3 year old battery wonРІР‚в„ўt be as robust as one that is brand new), so you canРІР‚в„ўt expect to see РІР‚Сљreal worldРІР‚Сњ levels of performance that match the theoretical figures exactly.
