Sorry....
I was going to merge the threads but it looks like it has been doneLOL I was kidding...you guys are doing great!
I had to laugh when I saw two threads (new posts) on top of one another with the exact same title
I believe the issue has been solved! I contaced BlackBoxMyCar and they said it sounds like I have the cigarette socket connection between the two products. Which I do! They said I need this: https://www.blackboxmycar.com/collections/battery-packs/products/hardwire-splicinglol I believe you're right, I'm sure it happens more often
Not a problem. I hope you get the issue fixed!
Oh man haha, yes, you would definitely need that cable for the battery installation!I believe the issue has been solved!

Thanks again for your help!
Hey man, team effort here! Take it easy!!!Oh man haha, yes, you would definitely need that cable for the battery installation!
I should have mentioned this in my first post, which I will do right away for anyone else in the future
Very nice and I have to compliment your driving, good space cushion between you and the vehicle in front, then when they accelerate from a stop, it appears you are using the 2 second rule to avoid a rear end accident. I also see you have drivers not trained in the use of turn signals when changing lanes just like we have on the mainland.@Lunchbox88 - I finally got around putting a video together
I made the video picture-in-picture, this is not how they normally are saved though, I just edited it together (which is easy enough as the camera records and saves the video files for front and back in 1 minute sections). When watching them on a phone or computer they will show either front or rear camera (depending on what you select). There's also a dashcam viewer for both phone and computers, the computer version allows you to see where you've driven as well as the files contain GPS data (I'll post a picture of the viewer with map below to give you an idea).
The first part of the video is just regular driving, after a minute I switch the front and rear cameras. Then there's a bit of night driving, again switching between front and back after a minute. Then a minute or so of driving in the rain to give you an idea how that looks, and finally two parts (these are only 20 seconds each) with the camera in parking mode (motion sensing).
Also, there's audio in the first bit of the video, but there was talking between me and others in the rest of the video so I took the audio out of that since I don't know if they would consent to me uploading the conversation lol, just so you know why the rest is silent
Here's that picture of the PC viewer:
Hope this helps
Thanks for the compliment. But in all honesty, I never really look at the 2 second rule, sometimes I am but it also happens frequently that I'm really too close to the person in front of meVery nice and I have to compliment your driving, good space cushion between you and the vehicle in front, then when they accelerate from a stop, it appears you are using the 2 second rule to avoid a rear end accident.

Yep... the dimming mirror does it, there was a "accessory" one I found that said "spare fuse" that was active. As long as the ford battery management system feels the battery isn't dying. You'll have loads of powered fuses in the cabin box. Ironically when I installed the U1000 with the radar, and 2k rear camera, I used the dimming mirror for engine on, and the accessory one for engine off. I didn't buy a battery. When you buy the thinkware radar with the U1000, you can set the dashcam to ultra low power mode, where it will run for up to 28 days off the car battery.I miss having a fuse that turns on with the ignition. Does anyone know of a fuse inside the cabin that only has power when the vehicle is running?
