Hi all,
I’m running a Thinkware U1000 dual cam set up alongside the Thinkware iVolt BAB-50 battery pack (hardwired).
I also have a 4G WiFi module that has a small battery that provides about 8 hours of power/WiFi. I’d like to extend this.
Can anybody think of a relatively economical way to extend the battery life of the WiFi module? Unfortunately the Thinkware doesn’t have a USB outlet like the BlackVue (it’s also about half the price).
I have thought about cheap USB battery banks but as we know, it’s not super safe in very cold/hot conditions - having said that the WiFi module already has a cheap lithium battery in it. The power banks also don’t usually automatically power the USB ports and most require clicking a button to get the thing to turn on, so it wouldn’t work automatically when you power the car off.
Any suggestions? Selling my Thinkware BAB-50 and getting the Blackvue seems like I’d take a huge loss….
Thanks,
Ed
