![]() ![]() The DC connectors from past models will actually connect to the X Series input ports in appearance but won’t provide power.Īlso, if you are wondering, the X Series male DC connectors are not compatible with the previous dashcam models, including DR750-2CH LTE, which was the last model featuring that connection type. It bears repeating that due to the different design of the new 3-wire power cables, the past models’ (DR900S, DR750S, DR650S) power cables are not compatible with the new X Series dashcams. Compatibility with past models’ power cables As long as the switch is off, it will still power your dashcam as you drive but not when the ignition is off. Then when you come back to your home garage, you can switch it off. For example, if you commute and want to use Parking Mode at your office’s parking lot, you can switch it on. That ON/OFF switch can be handy as it toggles Parking Mode ON/OFF (not the power). Power Magic Pro powers your BlackVue in Parking Mode using your vehicle’s battery.Īnother reason one would want to keep using a Power Magic Pro is the Parking Mode switch. In other words, even if you don’t hardwire your BlackVue to your vehicle’s fuse panel, it retains the ability to switch to Parking Mode when it detects that the vehicle is stationary for five minutes. That’s because X Series support both ignition-triggered and G-sensor-based Parking Mode. You do not need to purchase specific cables or adapters to make the X Series models work with past batteries. The Power Magic Battery Pack (B-112) and Power Magic Ultra Battery (B-124X) are both compatible with the X Series. In addition, you can set a timer so that your dashcam will turn off based on either voltage or timer cutoff, whichever comes first. The voltage cutoff values are 11.8V, 12V, and 12.5V. With the BlackVue App, you can choose a voltage cutoff value so that your dashcam will shut itself down to prevent draining your battery. When you hardwire your dashcam using the hardwiring power cable, your BlackVue constantly monitors the voltage coming from your vehicle.

It helps to prevent battery from excessively discharged based on voltage and timer settings. Power Magic Pro is a must have accessory for dash cam with parking mode recording. Prevention to discharge vehicle battery excessively.Supplies power to dash cam when vehicle engine off.Therefore, no more worry that your vehicle battery will becoming excessively discharged. And supply power to dash cam until the timer value or voltage value reached (whichever comes first). It will start the timer when vehicle engine is off. You can configure timer values as 6, 12, 24, 36, 48, 72, 120 hours or infinity. The timer cut-off is working great as well. What is BlackVue Power Magic Pro It is a device that supplies power to dash cam from car battery according to the configured voltage and timer. But it is working when I set value as 22.8V and 23.2V. Too bad that I did not have the chance to test it even with 12V setting on my newly installed battery 2 months ago. Power Magic Pro will cut the power to dash cam automatically when vehicle battery voltage drops below the configured voltage. There are 4 voltage values to set – 11.8V, 12V, 22.8V and 23.2V. And will start to operate based on voltage and timer settings when engine is off with multi-booting button on. But will provide power when engine is started no matter multi-booting button is on or off. When turned off, it will not supply power when engine is off. The multi-booting feature is very useful. Finally, you can use screws or double-sided tape to install Power Magic Pro at desired place permanently. You should get green LED light when power on if everything is installed properly. Once you found it, just hard-wire yellow and red wires to fuses as per user guide. The location of fuse box is not so easy to reach (you will know what I said if you own this car too). I managed to install it on 2009 Honda City without any help from professional. However, it is not impossible to do so too. There is no fast and easy way to install Power Magic Pro for average users without some vehicle wiring knowledge. Output voltage cut-off timer: 6 hours ~ Infinity.Output voltage restoration: Cut-off voltage + 0.2 and more.Output current/quiescent current: Rated current 1A, Max 2A / Below 200mA. ![]() The switches, LED light and power button are located in the front. Power Magic Pro itself is rectangle box in shape. There is Power Magic Pro, socket with connector, double-sided tape, screws and user guide in the package.
