The Cigar lighter is a ignition live feed. To hard wire a dash cam you need a special wiring kit. Or you will cook the Dash Cam. The Cigar lighter feed wire suplied with the Dash Cam has a reducer built in. itisme

really.......? I'm not sure how cutting off the end of the plug and wiring it to the back of the socket would be different from plugging the socket into the ign switched socket? both deliver the same voltage....

You CAN get a battery monitoring box that will stop the Dashcam from working when the voltage is too low, but if only running Ign switched live, it shouldn't be a problem. Bodsys Brake Bible

In mine the cigar plug reduces the voltage to 5v so cutting the plug off may not be a good idea MY16 AUTOBIOGRAPHY Indus silver with some toys

Thats right, its the plug not the socket that reduces the voltage to 5v. Thats why there is a hard wiring kit on the market,that has a reducer in the wiring itisme
