My Blackvue isn't used in a car yet. It basically sits on my desk to test a multi-camera / Raspberry Pi setup.
Charging:
I charged it with a cigarette lighter -> power plug adapter at a power point in my home.
--> Works fine, the app shows 100% charge level
Use:
Works fine, it can power a dashcam and a Raspberry Pi at the same time, power consumption is at a normal level
Discharge:
Now comes the strange part. If the B124X is turned off and just sits on the desk, then the charge level goes down from 60% to 10% within a week.
Is it normal that LiFePo batteries discharge that quickly when they are not used? An unused power bank would need months to go down from 60% to 10%.
