With the BlackVue Power Magic Pro, you can film from your car for long periods of time. Connect your BlackVue dash cam to the Power Magic Pro, and the dash cam turns off automatically if your car's battery doesn't have enough power. The time setting automatically turns off the dash cam after a maximum of 72 hours of filming in the parking mode. Moreover, the Volt setting turns off the dash cam once the voltage goes below the configured value. This prevents problems with starting your car once you continue your journey. The Power Magic Pro connects to the fuse box of your car.

Easy to connect, I have no knowledge of electronics, but I am an IT professional and therefore technical.
Installation in my Lexus was very simple, hiding cables did not cause any problems. Setup was (for me) clear.
The disadvantage is that they advertise by default that you have to put the wires around a fuse leg. That is a sloppy way, because fuses serve to burn if a device causes an overload, this does not happen if the BlackVue would cause a short circuit. I have therefore placed a fuse tap in the fuse box (this is just a cable that splits the original fuse and the cabling to the BlackVue with its own fuse). See an attached photo, you'll understand what I mean.
You can get a fuse tap at an auto parts store. The fuse tap is just a cable with a fuse attached. That goes in your fuse box, you put the original fuse in slot 1 of the tap and in slot 2 a fuse that you want to use for the BlackVue. On the other side of the tap you put the wire to the BlackVue Pro, then you can press the tap with pliers so that the cable of the blackvue is stuck in it (possibly a piece of duck tape around it). Fuse taps are therefore just a kind of junction boxes in the form of a cable. Paid 6 euros each, it was better if they had just been there.
Coolblue may be able to supply them (at an additional cost) to complete the installation.

With a little knowledge, it is a breeze to join. Mounted under the dashboard and therefore not noticeable, just like the camera behind the mirror. Length of the wiring more than sufficient. And hopefully it has a long life.

Simple device of reasonable to good quality that extends the functionality of the Blackvue dashcam with camera surveillance of your car while parking. The shots are limited to the front and back, but in many cases of damage they will certainly help you. Set it up once and don't worry about it anymore.
