Ok , camera pulls 1.4Watt , voltage converter pulls 2Watt to 2.17Watt ...
Current from batteries varied from 0.136A to 0.146A @ 14.85v under load .
Ok its not efficient as such , but should be more than enough for a nights recording as a mobile power source that's quick and easy .
Oh well , it works , provides more than enough power to feed a dash cam , so I can now play with the Focus , set the menu functions etc ,
Obviously it could be better , and one way to bye pass a lot of stuffing around would be with a USB Power Bank , and considering the price of such ( around $10 shipped ) , why would you stuff around with this rig ..
Well , I did it because this voltage converter was meant to go on my car ( for back facing cam ) ..
But so far I have failed to find a constant 12v power source when the ignition is turned on ... ( was going to pull power from Tail lights )
So the rear cam is powered VIA sig lighter socket , since I no longer need it for my front cam (s)
Again just a bit of fun ... Not sure I want to spend more $$ on this , especially since ( $$ ) there are more financially viable options
But in the near future I see a USB Power Bank making its way here .
