VANTRUE USB-C Hardwire Kit for Dash Cams — 11.5ft, 5V/2A with Dual Low‑Voltage Cutoffs & ACC Sensing

The VANTRUE 11.5ft USB-C Hardwire Kit delivers a permanent 5V/2A power feed to compatible Vantrue dash cams while protecting your vehicle battery with built‑in low‑voltage cutoffs.

Hardwiring a dash cam removes the need to rely on cigarette lighter sockets and provides continuous surveillance when your vehicle is parked. This 11.5‑foot USB‑C kit is engineered specifically for Vantrue dash cam models and connects directly to a vehicle’s 12–24V electrical system, converting that supply to a stable 5V/2A output. It adds ACC sensing for automatic parking mode behavior and dual‑threshold low‑voltage protection so your vehicle battery won’t be drained.

How does this hardwire kit keep my battery from dying?

The kit uses two preset undervoltage thresholds tailored for 12V and 24V systems. When the car’s battery voltage drops to the threshold, the unit automatically cuts power to the dash cam, preventing a deep discharge. This protects your starting battery while allowing long‑term parking surveillance up to the safe limit.

• Dual low‑voltage cutoffs: 12V/11.6V and 24V/23.2V
• Automatic power disconnect when thresholds reached
• Passive monitoring that resumes once voltage recovers

Will this work with my vehicle and dash cam?

The hardware accepts 12–24V inputs, so it works in most cars, SUVs, trucks, buses, and other vehicles in that range. It is explicitly designed to power Vantrue dash cams via USB‑C; it does not support dash cams from other manufacturers. Verify compatibility with your specific Vantrue model before installing.

• Input range: 12–24V automotive systems
• Output: regulated 5V/2A for USB‑C dash cams
• Compatible models include N5, N5S, N4 ProS, N4S, S1 Pro, S1 Pro MAX, E360, N2X, E1 Pro, E2, E1 Lite

What does ACC functionality do for parking mode?

Built‑in ACC detection senses when your vehicle’s ignition cycles, switching the dash cam between normal recording and parking mode automatically. If the engine is turned off while the dash cam is recording, the unit immediately places it into parking mode; when you start the engine, it exits parking mode without manual input. This ensures footage is recorded appropriately during both driving and parked periods.

• Automatic entry/exit of parking mode with engine on/off
• No need to toggle modes on the camera itself
• Consistent behavior across driving and parked use

How easy is installation and what else can it power?

The kit is intended for splicing or fuse‑box connection and includes a long 11.5ft USB‑C lead to reach most windshield locations. Installation typically requires basic vehicle wiring familiarity or professional fitting; follow the included video and instructions for safe connection. Beyond dash cams, it can power other accessories that accept 5V/2A USB‑C input, provided they are compatible with Vantrue hardwire wiring and voltage protection limits.

• 11.5ft USB‑C cable for flexible routing to windshield cameras
• Suitable for GPS units and radar detectors that accept 5V/2A USB‑C
• Professional install recommended if unfamiliar with automotive fuse boxes

Who is this for: Drivers and fleet owners who use Vantrue dash cams and want seamless, continuous power for 24/7 parking surveillance without risking battery depletion. It’s ideal for people who prefer a tidy, hardwired installation over temporary cigarette‑lighter power, and for those using compatible Vantrue models that benefit from automatic ACC switching and low‑voltage safety cutoffs.
