Thanks for that info! Now you got me looking into the USB batteries. - I see on another thread that @mbc0 is using a Power Core battery to power parking mode, etc.Depends on your requirements.
Personally I am happy with using the car battery and setting the parking timer to 3 hours.
I would set it longer if geofencing was available on the Viofo cameras, but that is still in beta release on the A139.
Of the dashcam parking batteries, I don't currently have a preference, most of them seem too expensive for what they are, and I'm not convinced about long term reliability on some of them.
I do have a standard USB powerbank that I use if I need long term recording, but I don't often need it.
I know the Blackvue and Celllink batteries that are dedicated to dashcams are very expensive for what you get. I don't mind spending what money I need to, but I'd like to make sure what I purchase is a decent value. - Thanks again for your advice!
