Hello all,
I've been wanting to get into the dash cam scene for a bit now and I've been doing my research and I have decided that I want an a129 and utilize parking mode. In order to do this I was thinking about getting the VicoVation Vico-Power Plus and set the cut off for 12.2V then splicing in the official Viofo 12v to 5v hardwire kit after the Power Plus to run that to the camera.
The question I have is that according to VicoVation site the Power Plus can only output 2 amps, the Viofo Hardwire Kit says it only outputs 1.5 amps and the camera on Viofo's site says it inputs at 3.1 amps. What is going on here? Am I not understanding something because it seems like everything should be at least outputting 3.1 amps if that is what the camera needs, especially the offical hardwire kit for the camera.
