VANTRUE USB-C Hardwire Kit 11.5ft 12–24V to 5V

VANTRUE 11.5ft USB-C Hardwire Kit supplies a steady 5V/2A to compatible VANTRUE USB-C dashcams while protecting your vehicle battery with built-in low-voltage cutoff and ACC switching. The VANTRUE hardwire kit converts a vehicle’s 12–24V electrical system into a stable 5V supply and connects your dash cam directly to the fuse box for continual operation. With an 11.5-foot USB-C cable, low-voltage protection, and ACC functionality, this kit is designed to power dashcams, GPS units, and other 5V devices without occupying a cigarette lighter socket.

How does the hardwire kit protect my car battery?

The unit uses preset undervoltage thresholds to disconnect output before your vehicle battery is deeply discharged. It has dual-stage protection tuned for both 12V and 24V systems so it won’t drain starter power during long parking periods.

• Disconnect thresholds: ~11.6V for 12V systems and ~23.2V for 24V systems
• Automatic reconnection when voltage returns to safe range
• Prevents deep discharge to protect starting ability and battery lifespan

Will this work with my VANTRUE dashcam and other devices?

The hardwire kit is made for VANTRUE USB-C dashcams and is also suitable for many 5V USB-C accessories. Check device compatibility and the installation instructions to confirm fit and function before wiring.

• Compatible models include N5, N5S, N4 ProS, N4S, S1 Pro, S1 Pro MAX, E360, N2X, E1 Pro, E2, and E1 Lite
• Also compatible with GPS navigators, radar detectors, and other 5V USB-C devices
• 11.5ft cable offers flexible routing behind trims and along headliners

How does ACC functionality change dashcam behavior?

The built-in ACC input senses the vehicle ignition state so your dashcam switches modes automatically. When the engine turns off, the dashcam can enter parking mode; when the engine starts, it resumes normal recording without manual interaction.

• Seamless transition between driving and parking modes
• Reduces false recordings and conserves power during long stops
• Requires proper ACC connection at installation for full functionality

What should I consider during installation?

Proper installation into the fuse box is important for safety and reliability. Follow the provided installation video and wiring instructions, and if you’re unsure, have a qualified technician complete the hardwiring to avoid electrical issues.

• Connect input to a 12–24V fused source and secure ground to chassis
• Confirm ACC lead is tied to an ignition-switched circuit for mode switching
• Verify output is stable 5V/2A before finalizing mounting of the dashcam

Who is this for? The VANTRUE 11.5ft USB-C Hardwire Kit is made for drivers who want a tidy, permanent power solution for their VANTRUE USB-C dashcams, fleet vehicles that run on 12–24V systems, and anyone needing continuous parking surveillance without relying on a cigarette lighter adapter. It suits do-it-yourself installers comfortable with basic vehicle wiring as well as professional installers who need a reliable, low-voltage-protected hardwire solution. Ensure you review vehicle-specific guidance and the installation video to confirm compatibility before purchase.
