Hello,
I have an ITB-100HD SP and have it hardwired to a constant power source with a Power Magic Pro. After it was hardwired at a local shop, it was functioning as expected until recently (well, at least that is when I noticed), when the ignition is on, it will record with no problems but once the ignition is off, the dash cam will either record for a few more seconds to capture the last minute or the recording will end altogether.
I am trying to find the root cause of this problem... Could it be a faulty cam? I have the dashcam in a relatively new vehicle (late 2013) and so I do not think a weak battery could possibly be the cause?
That said, I drive about 12KM round trip daily (maybe more, if not at all on the weekends) which could equate to 20-30 minutes on the road, should be enough time to charge the battery to ensure there is something to draw from, right? Could the cold weather have any impact on the charge it holds too (does it hold a better charge in the cold or the heat)?
Anyway, would love some insight! I have asked around to get other opinions but it would seem it makes sense to ask this forum first!
