Note:
If your iVOLT BAB-50 has a raised lip around the input port, it will not work with the ACC hardwiring kits or cigarette lighter adapters from the Battery Pack Replacement Cables listing.
Thinkware iVOLT BAB-50 Battery Pack
Designed for Thinkware Dash Cams, the BAB-50 is an excellent solution to enhancing the parking mode features of the dash cam and eliminate wear and tear on the vehicles battery. When your vehicle is powered off, the BAB-50 will provide power to your dash cam for parking mode recording.
The BAB-50 is compact-sized, making it easy to hide inside the vehicle, especially in smaller vehicles. The BAB-50 takes approximately 45 minutes to fully charge (7A Speed Charge) and can power a dual-channel dash cam system up to 16 hours.
Made up of LiFePo4 (Lithium Iron Phosphate) cells, the BAB-50 is designed to withstand extreme temperatures, go through more charge cycles (up to 1,500 charge cycles) and is more environmentally-friendly than traditional Lithium-ion batteries.
Without a battery pack, some vehicles may bring up a Battery Discharge warning if you leave your dash cam running in Parking Surveillance Mode for several hours as it is detected as an excessive vehicle battery drain. Fitting a battery pack is the best solution to prevent it from happening.

Notes
12V Cigarette Charging Cable is not included. The iVOLT BAB-50 must be hardwired to the fusebox.
Thinkware Hardwire Kit is required for the Unspliced 3-Wire Output Cable option. We strongly recommend soldering the wires for a secure connection between the Thinkware Hardwire Kit and the Unspliced 3-Wire Output Cable. For a plug and play experience, choose the Spliced Hardwire Kit.
