Garmin Constant Power Cable,Black

A cinch to fit, make sure that your vehicle's OBD connection/socket is within easy reach before hand. So much easier than fitting in the old way.

Bit expensive but works well. With 2 USB outlets it powers my dash cam and powers my phone while acting as my Navigator. Limited power so don't expect to fast charge a big smart phone but it will keep it topped up while its displaying your route.I was initially a bit concerned that equipment was staying on, but after careful checking once I remove keys from ignition and lock the car, it goes 10 mins before powering off.I managed to neatly hide the wires so overall I saved money vs a garage installing this.

Used in 3 of my cars, and all worked perfectly and still to date.I have used this in:Audi A6 AvantCupra AtecaAudi Q5The power input is perfectly fine. I installed using some sticky back Velcro to stick under my driver side near my pedals.Connects fine, and I run a garmin dashcam through this and works flawlessly. Ideal too you can change the length of time it will stay on, depending on your battery and car of course.

Excellent well designed item. It allows you to power both a dash cam and charge a phone. It won’t fit all vehicles as it needs a bit of clearance around the OBD socket, some vehicles it’ll be too bit to refit trim covers. It could really do with a small right angle adaptor to allow it to fit more cars.

Brilliant, simple, tidy, worth the money.

I purchased this unit as it was a Garmin product and I did not fancy purchasing one of those cheap £8 to £15 Chinese units. This unit has a switch that cuts the power to the dash camera after 10 minutes or another position after 24 hours of constant use to stop any chance the dash cam might leave you with a flat battery. The OBD unit has a censor that cuts the power when a pre set voltage has been reached so your car will start and not leave you stranded. Another feature with this unit if your car is rocked when it is switched off or hit the unit sends power again and records for another 10 minutes ( not tried when set on 24hour setting ). Just to be clear this unit will not work like a hard wiring kit and will not put the Dash cam into true parking mode (well it did not on mine anyway. Road Angel Ultra 4K).When the OBD unit is on it has a red constant light on it and flashes slowly when the set time is over and goes out if the battery voltage drops below the set level. Please look and see where your OBD port is and if you are able to plug this unit into it and still be able to replace covers etc, mine was underneath the passenger parcel shelf and fitted perfectly and can hardly be seen.The unit is working well and I am pleased with it so far, hope the extra cost rewards me with a long working life fingers crossed.

Investing in a dash cam is a wise decision for any vehicle owner. However, the installation process can sometimes be a hassle, especially when it comes to hardwiring the device. I actually delayed purchasing a dash cam, as I was unsure how to properly wire it - I din't want to use the cigarettes lighter socket, as I didn't want any cables obstructing the interior of my car.It is an incredibly useful piece of kit designed to allow for easy hardwiring of up to two USB devices- for example, you can connect 2 dash cams, front and rear. One of the main advantages is its convenience. There's no need to worry about fuse taps or finding suitable fuses to tap, making the installation process faster and hassle-free. While the price is higher compared to a traditional fuse tap solution, the convenience it offers makes it well worth the investment.

Take the faff out of a hardwired set up. This is super quick to install and even gives you a 2nd USB port for charging.Has the option for 2 hr, 4 hr or continuous power for parking mode.Great product, wish I had found it sooner.
