Hi,

Does the dash cam have an inline fuse? Also, do the directions indicate what amperage fuse should be used to protect it?

If there is an inline fuse provided, you need to make sure the fuse you select for power has a large amperage. If there is no inline fuse, then the manufacturer should identify what amperage to use, and then we can decide where to get power.

Let me know if you have any of that information.

Take care,

Joe
