ssontong Upgraded OBD2 OBD Power Cable for Dash Camera, OBD to Type-C USB OBDII Adapter Hardwire Charger Cable 24 Hours Surveillance and Acc Two Mode with Switch Button (Type-C USB Port)

The look of a factory installation without the headache of dealing w. the fuse box
This is a hardwire charger cable designed to power dash-cams, radar detectors, and other USB-C devices directly from your vehicle’s OBD or OBD2 port. This eliminates the need for connections to the car battery, fuse box, or cigarette lighter. It features two work modes: “ACC” for when you only want the device powered when your car is on, and “Surveillance” for always-on (for things like 24-hour parking monitoring). There is a switch to select which mode you want. It was really easy to just plug it into my car’s OBD port to power my dash cam. Having to deal with the fuse box would have been a nightmare, since the fuse box isn’t in the passenger cabin on my car (Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid).NOTE: the first one I received did not work in ACC mode, I had it replaced and the second one did work in ACC mode (where it provides power only when the car is ON).Pros:– Easy and convenient power source directly from the OBD port– Eliminates wiring to the fuse box (or cigarette lighter which is ugly)– Switchable between two modes: ACC and 24-hour Surveillance– Built-in low voltage protection shut off power draw to prevent car battery total drain– USB-C compatible (can also convert to other USB types using a USB adapter cable)– Simple to install – just plug it into the OBD portCons:– Reliability may not be great – my first one didn’t work in ACC modeOverall, despite the issue with the first charger cable, I would still recommend this as a great solution to power a dash cam. The cable can be routed along the edge of the windshield keeping it out of sight like a factory install, which is much harder to do if you’re plugging it into a cigarette lighter which is usually in the center console of your car. Get the look of a factory install without the hassle of dealing w. the fuse box.

Good quaility, few things to consider before buying depending on your camera
The product quality is good and works but with a few cons, I guess this will depend on the camera model, I am reviewing based on use with a Garmin Dashcam:1- While in O mode the camera won’t boot up right away when the car goes to ACC or ON, it will take around two-three minutes for it to power up.2- The USB cable end is straight and not L shaped, so if your camera is quite big or the port is on the sides this will block your view a little more.3- The USB connector is detected by the camera as a data cable, so I have to manually tell my camera to not start the USB Transfer mode every time it boots up. Garmin cables for power only have two wires, this cable seems to have 3.4- Mode I works perfect and will keep your camera alive and recording until it reaches 11.6v on car battery.Cable is long enough to reach front or rear of the car.

Faulty cable or garbage product? EDIT: 10/10 customer service
This power adapter constantly reboots the dashcam I bought it to power. It’ll work for ~5 minutes then the dashcam powers off, restarts and works for ~2 minutes until repeating that cycle indefinitely. I tried powering the dashcam with a 12v adapter as well as a standard USB and both work flawlessly. This OBD adapter is the only power source that causes issues with my dashcam.Edit: The seller reached out and remediated the issues I had with the product. Their customer service is top notch and I can highly recommend them now!

Great dash cam power adaptor for clean install
Installed this adaptor for dash cam. Below is my feedbackPros1. Price2. Length of wire is more than enough3. Clean installCons1. None at this time

Si bien el cable sirve, el voltaje de salida es menor al que manifesta la publicación y no encendía la DashCam, desgraciadamente me di cuenta ya que estaba instalado el cableado, doble trabajo. Como cargador de baterías podría funcionar, pero para una dashcam, lo dudo.
