Hi all, first post. I've been trying to read through and search as much as possible here on the forum with no luck, so maybe somebody can help or direct me to a thread/page.
I recently got a Mobius V3 Lens C2 to mount to my motorcycle. I have a fuse tap using a 2A fuse which is wired to this:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/B00OHHT7ZG
From there I have one usb going to my Garmin GPS and the other to the Mobius. With that set up, if I have them both plugged in when I start the motorcycle, both will receive power, but the Mobius will not start recording.
If I keep the GPS unplugged when I start the bike, the Mobius will start recording as it should. I then plug in the GPS at which point it turns on and the Mobius continues to record.
The problem arises sometime during my ride where the Mobius will stop recording (solid yellow on top). It will always complete the 5 minute clip, wherever it decides it doesn't want to record anymore. Just today it recorded 5 full clips (25 minutes out of a 35-40 min ride) in 85 degree weather. Later in the night when the temp wasn't nearly as hot, it stopped recording after 3 clips (15 minutes out of a 30 minute ride). I've swapped USB cables and no difference.
Running the current firmware as of today. (can't remember what number off-hand) I have the super capacitor installed and a Kingston 32gb class 4 microSD which was formatted with the mobius software multiple times. I previously had a Samsung 32gb class 6 card in it and it was doing the same thing, which is why I went out and bought the Kingston as is recommended. All the settings are correct using the software.
With all that said, it seems it might just be something with the 12v-5v converter. Can anyone recommend one with a full size female USB that would provide the constant power the Mobius needs? I would just run it from a separate fuse tap so there is no interference with any draw from the GPS.
Sorry for the long winded post, but I wasn't able to find any threads with my issues.
Thanks in advance for any and all advice!
