70mai Type-C Hardwire Kit UP03 for Dash Cams 5V/2.4A

If you want reliable, always-on power for a 70mai dash cam without relying on the cigarette lighter socket, the UP03 hardwire kit provides a tidy, vehicle-fuse-box-ready solution. It converts a wide input range (12V–30V) into stable 5V/2.4A via a Type-C output and includes intelligent features such as ACC detection and automatic low-voltage protection for worry-free 24-hour parking monitoring.

How does the UP03 keep my dash cam powered when the car is off?

The UP03 taps directly into your vehicle’s battery or fuse box and supplies continuous power to the dash cam even when the ignition is off. This allows parking surveillance and event recording while parked.

• Direct 12V–30V input for cars, trucks, buses, and SUVs
• 10-foot cable reaches common fuse box locations without extension
• Type-C output delivers consistent 5V/2.4A to the dash cam
• Supports uninterrupted 24-hour parking mode when installed

What safeguards prevent the car battery from draining?

The kit includes automatic low-voltage protection that cuts power before the vehicle battery is critically discharged. Thresholds differ by vehicle size so the system balances continuous monitoring with the need to be able to start the engine.

• Small-car cutoff at 11.8V to protect compact batteries
• Large-vehicle cutoff at 23.6V for higher-voltage systems
• Automatic reconnection when battery voltage recovers
• Prevents excessive discharge while retaining monitoring capability

Will the dash cam turn on and off with the ignition?

Yes — the UP03 supports automatic ACC-mode switching so your dash cam powers up with the engine and shuts down when you turn the car off. This conserves battery when you’re not using parking mode and ensures normal driving recordings start automatically.

• Automatic detection of ACC to start and stop recordings
• Avoids missed events caused by brief stops at lights
• Saves battery when the vehicle is off unless parking mode is active
• Works seamlessly with supported 70mai camera models

How easy is installation and what support is available?

The UP03 is designed for a straightforward DIY install that many users can complete in minutes with basic tools. 70mai also provides warranty coverage and optional in-person installation at select service centers for added convenience.

• User-friendly wiring and labeled connectors for quick setup
• Compatible with fuse-box tap methods for clean, hidden runs
• 18-month warranty from 70mai for manufacturer issues
• Optional paid installation services at New York and California service centers
