Well apparently it was still enough to trip whatever battery protection the Model 3 has (though I don't think if it's been determined to be a cumulative amount of power drawn or if it's some rate over a period of time). From what I've seen the A129 should use ~20-30% less energy than the DR750S...

Okay it's been 3 months +/- a few days with my DR750S-2CH hooked up to my car's 12V running an average of ~30 hours a week. Still no battery service errors. Car's currently on 2018.21.9. I may be switching out the DR750S for a Viofo A129-2CH in the next few months and I think it may consume...

Using a regular mobile phone battery pack is just dangerous unless you live in a cold climate.

I agree that it’s definitely too expensive, but it is a nice battery. It’s a 12.8V 6,000mah (76.8Wh) which is actually comparable to a 21,000mah power bank you’d get for your phone. Also it’s not a normal Li-ion battery, it’s a Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePo4) which won’t explode in a hot car...

Are you comfortable wiring it up yourself? My hardwire set up is very straightforward with nothing exposed besides the switch under the glovebox. All the extra soldering work I did was to add a bunch of quick disconnect points for easy removability/maintenance/modularity. Didn’t need to make...

With the luck I've had with hit-and-runs, I've been running my dash cam off of a normal mobile battery bank. However I was not comfortable with how hot it was getting in the car so I bit the bullet and hardwired it to the 12v battery today. Running a Blackvue 750S 2-channel with a 3-amp fuse...
