Hi Everyone! I just placed an order for a 2 Channel Dashcam (Blacksys CH-100B) and will be hardwiring it to my fuse box to run off my battery during parking mode. I will be connecting this to an 03 G35 Coupe so it isn't a brand new car. Battery wise, I don't know when exactly the last owner replaced the battery but it hasn't given me any issues yet. I do understand from research on this forum that runtime/recording time will vary depending on the age of the battery but I wanted to get a feel for how long other users are able to run their dashcams while in parking mode through their car battery. How long it records isn't the problem but more so how long my car can run the dashcam in parking mode.
I did talk with blackboxmycar and they told me no more than a few hours (4-6 hours) but I have also read that people are able to get 16-24 hours. I want to run my dashcam for at least 10-14 hours and blackboxmycar recommended a cell link b battery pack but for $200 it's pretty steep. I don't want to spend this much money if hardwiring the device will get me 10-14 hours that I need it for. I would appreciate any help or information you guys can provide me, thanks!
