@Panzer Platform sent me his Blackvue B-130X a few months back and I have been procrastinating on testing both of these battery packs.
A couple things I noticed
Thinkware IVOLT XTRA says 8500 mah in screenshot. Yet it is rated at 7500mah.

After having both of them charged I did some testing.
Thinkware had a projected 33 hours and 19 minutes at 100%
Blackvue B-130X projected 31 hours and 28 minutes at 100%

We then waited an hour and retested
Thinkware IVOLT XTRA 31 hours and 10 minutes remaining
Blackvue B-130X had 25 hours and 9 minutes remaining. A 6 hour drop

We then let the battery packs sit for 2 days with no dash cam hooked up to it. Just wanted to see (There is probably a technical term for this) how much it dropped.
Thinkware dropped to 80% and Blackvue dropped to 64%.
