I just picked up a thinkware f50 for parking mode only use. The camera will be mounted in the rear aimed inside my car so i can see out the front and side windows.
I really only care about recording when im not in the car via parking mode.
a 5v power bank is a no go since the thinkware f50 is 12v. I would just use my battery with the cutoff feature but here in MN it gets very cold in the winter and im not a fan of my battery getting pulled down to 12.something volts.
So what can i use for a battery bank? Like i said, i just want the pre buffered parking mode.
I need to be able to charge the battery while driving. If the 12v output gets cutoff when charging, thats fine as i only care about parking mode, but it needs to turn back on when i turn off the car.
What are my options?
