REDTIGER Dash Cam OBD Hardwire Kit Power Cable Type USB C Port,10FT 12V-24V to 5V,for Dash Camera, Low Voltage Protection

After 10-15 minutes of driving it would turn off my dash cam [Viofo a229 plus] in my car [CHR 2024 PHEV] The dash cam works fine on the cigarette Lighter connection so that rules out issues with the dash cam or SD card. The length of the cable from the USB C connection to the voltage box was 75 inches, and from there 37 inches to the OBD connector.

I bought this hardwire kit as a way to power my VIOFO dash cam and it works flawlessly. Installation was incredibly easy and the hardwire kit itself came with ample wire length so it covered all the distance I needed plus more if I ever decide to buy a larger car. Even better was how the kit itself shows the voltage of the car, it provides a great baseline on what the best option would be for when it should cutoff the power draw. This specific part of the kit came with a sticky pad so that you can mount it on a plastic trim if needed.

Item was perfectly acceptable but was required more quickly than the delivery date so another item was purchase instead and this item returned for refund

Came bundled with my dashcam, and I installed it easily with no issues or surprises. It plugs into the Onboard Diagnostics (OBD) plug under the dash on the driver's side (mechanic can easily unplug temporarily to plug in their diagnostic code reader, so no interference there. The little box has an LED display that shows battery voltage and some other status info. There's double-sided tape on the back, so you can mount it where you can see it. I installed a wired dashcam in my car over 10 years ago. It was kind of a major project, because I had to research and buy [the equivalent of this component] separately. It ran my battery down so low that I had to replace my car battery twice in three or four months before I solved the configuration issue. With this it was simple to install (plugging into the OBD connector was SO much better than DIY), and the default configuration works fine.

Absolutely perfect, so easy to install. This is the second one for me as I now have cameras on both of my cars. These guys also have the best customer service I've ever experienced online. If you have any issues they are extremely helpful, friendly and go above and beyond expectations. Don't waste your time with other brands 😉
