Product Information

In simpler terms, batteries demand significantly more power than dash cams, serving the dual purpose of powering the dash cam and storing energy for use when vehicle is shutdown. To hardwire your Viofo Dash Camera, you will need to remove one of the fuses from the fuse box and replace it a Viofo Fuse Tap. The camera has no way of sending high voltages to the vehicle, and fuses do not protect against high voltages anyway, they operate on Amps.

Since the fuse tap has a direction to it, it ONLY makes a difference if the original circuit fuse were to blow. If you put the fuses in the wrong positions, you may get fuses blowing or electrics getting damaged. If your ground cable is a full circle, you can fully remove the bolt before fixing the ground or even cut open the grounding circle.It’s because all the power is going to go through this first fuse, both the original draw of the fuse, plus the added draw from your dash cam. It may also protect PCBs and relays or semiconductors that are supplying the power to the fusebox from overload.

On the positive side, it simplifies to a 2-wire connection, requiring only accessory and ground connections. Moving the handle up or down adjusts the flow rate, while moving it left or right adjusts the temperature mix.Garmin's direct-wire power cable harness is exactly what you need to safely enable parking mode on your Garmin dash. The fuse taps come in 3 variations, so make sure you choose the one adapted to the fuse box in your car.

However, if the tap is aligned correctly, then the cam will continue to receive power regardless of the status of the original lower fuse. I know the discussion over which way is correct to orientate the fuse and in reality for the purpose of a dash cam it’s not critical.

To hardwire your Viofo Dash Camera, you will need to remove one of the fuses from the fuse box and replace it with a Viofo Fuse Tap. If the fuse blows immediately or regularly, check the wiring is OK and increase the fuse size slightly. If you put it in back-to-front then the power is coming in from the right terminal, through 1 fuse, through a 2nd fuse before it can go out to the additional accessory.

Obviously, you can do whatever you're comfortable with, but for me it was important to orient the fuse tap properly to ensure that the original circuit was still protected by the original fuse, and that the dash cam was protected by the dash cam fuse (not the original circuit fuse).Free up your cigarette lighter power outlet for another device such as your cell phone or USB charger.
