This is definitely a great option if you’re planning to do parking mode!!! I think it’s worth it to spend little extra extra money for this so you don’t have to worry about any battery drainage issues

This is definitely a great option if you’re planning to do parking mode!!! I think it’s worth it to spend little extra extra money for this so you don’t have to worry about any battery drainage issues
I hardwired the battery to my 2025 Genesis GV80 fuse box to power my Thinkware U3000 Dash Camera in the parking mode with no draw on the vehicle battery. It does exactly what I expected and gives me great satisfaction. Fast ship and easy installation at the user level. Kudos!
Be me, buy u3000 for parking mode, get this battery to pair with it. Installation instructions suck- Does not allude that you will need the hardwire kit set. Go buy a hardwire kit set on Amazon. Realize after, it does not have fuses thinkware wants. Return it. Buy thinkware hardwire kit. Get wires set up, go to hop in 2025 corolla and it uses Low Profile Mini fuses. This iVolt Mini externalbatt does not have a low-profile mini fuse tap. Go back to amazon to pick up low profile mini fuse tap set of 3 for $7 bucks. Annoying af. I mean in the end it all works but wow. Just toss the latest and greatest into your kits please for the love of god.
Did not need it, Returned to you
A good idea save your vehicle battery could be a little bet cheaper though!
