Continuous Dash Cam Power: All-Day Surveillance and Recording

The VIOFO HK5 hardwire kit delivers continuous power to your VIOFO VS1 dash cam directly from the vehicle's fuse box. This method ensures your dash cam is always powered, replacing the need for a cigarette lighter adapter for a cleaner, more integrated installation. Drivers benefit from uninterrupted recording, capturing crucial moments from the instant the vehicle starts until it's parked. This feature is essential for comprehensive daily driving and parked vehicle security.

Seamless Parking Mode Switching with ACC Detection

The VIOFO HK5 Hardwire Kit features ACC detection, enabling your VIOFO VS1 dash cam to transition seamlessly between recording modes. When the vehicle's engine is turned off, the dash cam automatically enters parking mode without manual intervention. Conversely, once the engine is started, the dash cam promptly resumes normal continuous recording. This intelligent switching ensures complete coverage and effortless operation for every drive.

Configurable Voltage Cut-off: Prevents Car Battery Drain

The HK5 Hardwire Cable provides advanced battery discharge prevention by continuously powering your dash cam until a user-configured voltage threshold is reached. It offers 4 selectable voltage cut-off options, safeguarding your car's battery from draining during extended parking mode use. When the vehicle's battery voltage drops below the chosen level, the HK5 intelligently stops supplying power to the dash cam. This prevents potential start-up issues for your vehicle.

This wide voltage range allows the kit to be connected directly to various vehicles, including cars, trucks, buses, SUVs, and even large rigs, for continuous power. Fleet managers and owners of diverse vehicles will find this compatibility highly beneficial for consistent dash cam performance.
