- VIOFO A119
I'm looking to get a hardwire kit for my A119 dashcam but I don't know which fuse to choose. Does it matter? I've figured out which fuse controls which component and the following fuses are off when the car is turned off (which is what I want because I don't want the dash cam killing my car battery):
Is there something in this list that's a good/safe fit for adding the hardwire kit to? Does it matter which type of fuse it is? 10A mini, 10/20/25A ATO? I don't know much about fuses.
