I have a Viofo A329 dashcam and wish to tap into my 2024 Ram 1500 Laramie fusebox so can use the dashcam's parking feature. I will need a constant power fuse and a auxillary powered fuse. Which specific fuse numbers should I tap into? There is a wire from the dashcam for constant power, a wire for auxillary power and of course a ground that will be connected to a bolt. Has anyone done this? If so, what fuse numbers did you tap into? Thx in advance. Tom

I would get a dedicated rechargeable battery pack, mise well use both lines in it. Just giving you an option. Gotta love teslas having 24/7 monitoring, but they have a battery that can handle just about anything.

I guess they have an motion activated which can save it, but anyone with a motion activated anything can have any types of events run endless video snaps.

Yes, a Viofo A329 dashcam, especially when used with parking mode and a hardwire kit, can potentially drain your car battery if not configured properly. However, this is not a guaranteed outcome and can be prevented with careful setup and monitoring

Viofo A129 Plus Duo with the 256 microSD. Hardwired to my Toyota hybrid battery (by the dealership) and has drained my car battery twice.
