This didn't work for me at all.What happened to this project?
Are any of the testers still using the charging kit?

Mine is in the boot with two TQKA 18W PD powerbanks, so 36W total charge rate, powering my cabin camera. I added a thermostat for low temperature charging cut off for safety and put the whole lot in a LIPO charging bag in the spare wheel well to keep cool in summer heat. When the thermostat turns the charger off it turns on a heater instead until the powerbanks warm up to 5C. I've also got a switch on my interior light panel to turn parking mode on/off since I don't drive enough to get 24 hours coverage from 36W charge rate. Had to add a capacitor to the USB output to avoid the A129 sometimes shutting down and not restarting when turning the ignition off.What happened to this project?

where is it possible to buy such a kit? I googled but no real results found
I just received one of these, very nice
I have a problem though:
With just the power cable attached to the powerbank the camera is powered with ignition on and ignition off, as expected.
With both the power cable and charging cable attached to the powerbank, the powerbank charges and the camera is powered when the ignition is on, but when the ignition is turned off the powerbank turns off and there is no power to the camera.
Possibly the problem is that the 0 volts for the charging cable and 0v from the power cable are connected together inside the "power charging kit" and because the powerbank has a current sensor in the power cable 0v to detect when the phone it is charging is full so it can turn off, the current sensor is bypassed by the power charging kit and the powerbank sees no power being taken so it turns off?
My powerbank is a PowerAdd X7 20000mAh.
Anybody else got it working correctly yet?
I don't think it ever reached production, so there are only a few prototypes about which are probably quite valuable since there don't seem to be any alternative products!where is it possible to buy such a kit? I googled but no real results found
I'm still using mine, mainly as a flashlight! The LED flashlight on that powerbank wins over any other flashlight I have if I want to illuminate a small area, not so good for distance since it is not focused, but for painting the inside of a cupboard or soldering it is very good.O i have also taken the power bank apart, and added the batteries to my arsenal of batteries for flashlights.
Do all 3 take power direct from the fuse box? I don't have always-on 12v sockets.alternative of Power Magic PRO
