Hello,

Has anybody used a dashcam with an external powerbank ?

Which dashcam is it ?

Because I tried one on a powerwank with 1 and 2.1 output but the dashcam does not record, only the screen turns on but nothing happens. And even when I keep the screen OFF it does not record.

Any help ?

Thank you.
 
For some reason one dashcam i had needed one time manual record starting, then while camera was recording i disconnect it and let it go off, next time when i plug it in camera started recording mode automatically.
 
I have a BlackVue DR600GW-HD and use this battery while the car is parked in underground parking. Depending on the activity in the parking garage I usually get 30 hrs out of the battery.

This battery has an input and an output so what I have also done is attached a 12 volt hard wire to the input so that the battery charges using my car's alternator while the output goes to the dash cam.
 
Good idea fastguy and gotta love the lithium battery pack on my electric bike which by the way has a USB output..... Hmmmm
