Hello, does anyone else have this problem? i had a k2000 and now a mobius and both show the same symptoms on my kia rio, if i turn the key to acc, the unit turns on & records. if i then start the car engine, the unit stays recording.

But if i put in the key and skip the acc part and just start the car engine, the unit will more often than not not-start.
i measured output at the ciggy socket during car ignition at almost 0v

from what i read cars are designed to cut off power to the ciggy socket (& everything else apparantly) during cranking so that starter motor will have all the batteries power dedicated to it for those seconds.

Does this cause issues with anyone elses units?

thx
