Best Settings for Long Parking Recording? A329S 3Ch

[patrocle]

Will be parking the car for 7 days at the airport and wanted to know which setting will keep the longest camera to record in parking mode

Have Viofo A329S 3Ch Hardwired with HK6 and battery pack Iroad 12 pro (12000mah)

Right now i have it to record at the fullest 24 hours and the highest quality

Auto Event detection
Parking g-sensor - Mid
Parking Motion detection to High
Video bitrate normal
Firmware v2.0_260104

Thanks a lot for your guidance

Take a look at the consumption measurements in the post linked below.
Read, do the math, and choose the option that's right for you.

During my testing of the A329S 3-Channel prototype dash camera, I performed a series of parking mode power consumption tests. Recently, I asked VIOFO is there was any parking mode that would have a significant change in its power consumption based on the firmware version or the production hardwire. VIOFO stated there should be no notable differences in the parking mode power consumption with the production firmware / hardware.

The power consumption data was gathered using a Fluke 117 multimeter measuring the amp draw with 12.6 volts being provided to the input power wires of a VIOFO HK4...

Thanks for that info!

Was thinking that hybrid or low impact detection are the lowest voltage consumption

For 7 days of parking, the best option is the strait Low Power Impact Detection (LPID) option, with the highest G-sensor sensitivity.
Hybrid mode doesn't make much of a sense in my opinion.

This camera will not meet your expectations after being parked for this long.

After being parked for this long, the camera will drain the battery during the day and negatively affect battery health as it will be operating at low voltage on other days.

Thanks for your advice!
