What is Reddit's opinion of Cellink NEO Battery Pack | Smart Power Bank for Dash Cams | Supplies up to 24 Hrs (2Channel) and up to 45 Hrs (1Channel) of Battery Life to Your Dash Cam (Spliced Ver. for Thinkware Dash Cams)?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

Hi, This is a Cellink Neo battery hardwire splice cable connector. One of the wires frayed and I am trying to fix it. I can't seem to push the pin out, so I was wondering where I could get more of the connections and just re-splice it, but i don't know what the connector is called.

Or does anyone have advice for fixing this without buying another connector? You can see the black wire is disconnected, but all three are frayed.

Those were from memory...

I would Google "dashcam battery" and research from there.

That looks good, I was thinking about this because I want front and rear, but that seems to have the same option. Do you have any ideas for keeping it recording while parked? Don't really love the idea of constantly draining my battery, but also not really looking to drop $360 on this. I could probably go without it, but I work in a not-so-great area, and don't really want to assume that there are A. Security cameras covering the parking lot and B. Those cameras are actually working

I went with:

Which includes the hardwire kit. you just need to tap into the right fuses. There's 2 ways you can go.

1. Tap into a fuse that only turns on when your car is running, this means that when in parking mode, you will use the battery pack. Once is out, your camera is off. Good option if you drive everyday/during parking there's not a lot of motion. Works well with residential garage parking.
2. Tap into an always on fuse, but I would then recommend getting a "Power Magic Pro" and skip the battery pack. This is a cheaper option since its ~ $40 (https://www.blackboxmycar.ca/products/power-magic-pro-blackvue?gclid=CjwKCAjwz5iMBhAEEiwAMEAwGKvABB0D43TBQtAN0gkgwBHrhgbHtyE4BuhI1FBBgdsUzRQ1Ypi9wBoC2hQQAvD_BwE) but it runs off your car's battery and the Power Magic Pro prevents draining your battery to 0.

Awesome list.

I also recommend the Cellink Neo/Blackvue B-124 Backup batteries.

They're not cheap, but for those with expensive LiFePO4 batteries for car batteries, this will prevent damage to them from constant discharge.
