If I do not use the cigerette lighter, how do I connect the BlackView to power?

You need to find the fuse box and directly connect to it! (read the instructions that came with the power magic pro)

By default the unit comes with a cigarette adaptor. If you do not wish to use it, purchase the Power Magic Pro (PMP) add on unit which will allow you to hardwire directly to your fuse box or appropriate power source and the PMP will ensure the unit will not drain your battery when parked. Yes you can record while your car is parked and off and the PMP will automatically turn off the unit if your csr battrry is running Low.

Buy the power magic pro and hard wire it. Then you can program it how long you want it to stay on after you leave the vehicle

In fuse panel of your car look for missing fuse. My car had two one of them was power all the time the other one had power on when key was on. Autozone had fuses that plug in your fuse panel that had a wire coming out of it so you could splice into it without having to damage any of your existing wire

The camera comes with a cigarette lighter adapter and this is the easiest and safest way to plug it into your car. The other way to do it is using the Power Magic Pro and the instructions are not that hard to follow as it then connects to your fuse box - as per the instructions.

I had mine professionally installed. They used the power magic adapter and connected it to a fuse box in the side of the dashboard.

Yes you can add a splitter to the cigerette lighter and then you can plug both in

I'm not sure what you mean. If you're asking if it will still work without the car being either on or on accessory, every car I've ever been in does maintain power to the cigarette outlet even when the car is completely off. If that doesn't work, just turn your car on accessory and it will work fine. You just turn the switch on the invertor on. I'd recommend turning the interior lights off in your car while doing this or run the cord through the window to prevent running the battery dead. If you do that, you won't have a problem with your battery going dead, not even close.

None. It plugs into your cigarette lighter socket. How you handle the light connection on the tow vehicle for break and turns is up to you.

Yea, it has a cord that plugs into a cigarette lighter socket. The light does not have a battery and won't work if you unplug it from the cig lighter socket. I prefer this product because it is light weight and easier to hold.

No, the unit draws power from the cigarette outlet. If unplugged it won't do much of anything.

Get an adjustable power cigarette port power supply and plug that into the unit. Make sure you have the right size plug on it though.

it's always a good idea to use 8 gauge wire directly from the battery,fused with atleast a 20 amp fuse,otherwise a cigerett lighter hookup will work. r.cox

You don't want to plug it into the cigarette outlet, it draws too much power for that and you'll blow fuses or fry the wiring. You'll want to hook it up directly to the battery.

No The cord plugs into cigarrette lighter. I guess you could hard wire it if you wanted

two ways to set up. plug into the box on the left side if you are facing the speaker then plug into cig lighter, or connect it to the acc fuse in your panel and set it to on our pulse with music

That sound like a good project.This product does not have a battery, so it only is powered when plugged in and the current is on.if you take it out of the cigarrete lighter it goes off.
