REDTIGER F7N Dash Cam Hardwire Kit USB C Port, Dashboard Camera Car Charger Cable Kit 12V- 24V to 5V w/Fuse Kit, Low Voltage Protection for Dash Cam Double-4 Fuses

This Dashcam Hardware(HW) kit has a USB-C connector and worked with my Redtiger F7N Touch. One BIG plus is that the dashcam starts up much quicker. With the standard ACC adapter, the F7N takes an excruciating 21 seconds to start recording. I can be well on the road by then. With the HW kit, the dashcam switches from parking mode to recording in a second or two. It also displays the voltage of the battery and the cutoff voltage. I stuck it to my dash so I can see these voltages easily, but you can easily put it near your fuse box if you want it out of sight. The kit comes with a bunch of 'Fuse Taps' so you can find B+ and ACC power. I had to use a voltmeter to find the active side of the fuse after removing the fuse because the power side was not always on the 'top.' I cracked the case open and I did not see any red-flags with the the electronics - it looks well built. Below are the connections from the Regulator to the USB-C pins. This is important because the dashcam needs to get constant power for its time-lapse parking monitor mode and needs to know when the car is started (ACC goes active) to start live recording, and these signals need to be on the correct pins. Below are the connections from the HW kit wires to the USB-C conector. Red Tiger HW kit USB-C Pinout Black wire: USB-C pins B1,B12 A1,A12 (All GND pins) Yellow wire: Battery+ USB-C pins A4,A9 & B4,B9 (All VBUS pins) Red wire: Switched Acc USB-C pins A5,A8 & B5,B8 (cc1,sbu1,cc2,sbu2) The F7N seems satisfied with receiving the ACC signal on just the cc1/cc2 pins, and this seems to be a dashcam 'standard' if you can call it that. This was verified by using a generic HW kit that did not have connections to sbu1, sbu2. The battery protection cutoff voltage is adjustable with 3 cutoff voltage choices and a digital voltage display, which can be nice to monitor your battery condition. The only issue I have with this HW kit is that sometimes the display does not light up, making me think it is not working. When I start the car, my dashcam starts up but the display does not illuminate with ACC. If I move the voltage cutoff switch, then the display lights up, displays the new cutoff voltage, then it displays ACC. So a minor 'glitch' in the display, but overall it seems to work.

I bought this hardwire kit for my dashcam so I could keep my windshield clean and power the camera without needing to plug it into the cigarette lighter—and I’m super happy with it! Installation was easier than I expected. The instructions were clear, and all the necessary fuse adapters and tools were included. I had it wired up and running in under 30 minutes, and I’m by no means a car expert. Just make sure to double-check your car’s fuse layout and use a multimeter if you’re unsure! The build quality is solid. The cables are thick, durable, and long enough to tuck neatly along the headliner and down into the fuse box. It also has low-voltage protection, which gives me peace of mind that my car battery won’t be drained if I leave it in parking mode overnight. Since installing it, my dashcam starts up instantly with the ignition and switches into parking mode perfectly. Zero issues so far. If you're looking to clean up your setup and get the most out of your dashcam, this hardwire kit is definitely worth it. Clean look, reliable power, and one less thing to think about.

Very easy to hook up and works really well. Instructions are very easy to understand and the fuse adapters make it quick and simple to install. Wires are good size and big enough to power the camera with ease. They also are well insulated and a good value to price.

The quality of the product is great. It comes with a tool to pull panels off if you need, and comes with tap-ins for most if not all cars. It's up to you to determine which fuses to tap into, you need to tap into one fuse with constant power (something that is always on) and one fuse with accessory power (something that's on only when the car is on). The taps all have 2 slots for fuses to go, YOU NEED TO KEEP THE 15a FUSE THAT COMES WITH THE TAP ON. Put the fuse you're tapping into in the other slot on the tap. It won't work unless both fuses are in the tap. This isn't made clear in any part of the instructions, and confused the hell out of me. Overall the product is good and functions as it should, but the unclear instructions made the install a little bit of a pain and took a bit for me to figure out. Hope this review helps someone out who ends up in a similar situation to me.

Was easy installing I have now my backup camera and as well as it's charges

I really had no problems with this hardwire kit. It was easy enough to figure out how to wire it in. It powers on immediately when I cut my car on. The wire was a little thicker to run down the A pillar in my Audi, but fit wasn't a major issue. Overall it's a great value and I don't have wires showing going to my cig lighter plug.

Defective product. Camera only works with cigerette lighter. Could not have it installed until after 30 days and therefore, camera not working.

Easy setup, good compatibility, and essential for a dash cam. Great product.

Sehr gute Qualität.

Très pratique pour installer la dashcam REDTIGER avec branchement électrique permanent protégé par un fusible. Tout est prévu. Il y atout les différentes sortes de fusibles que l'on peut trouver dans nos voitures. Longueur de fil plus que suffisante. Je recommande

This kit works well - allows the camera to go into parking mode - comes with everything you need and is easy to use. The cable that goes to the front camera could be longer (so I could site the control box where I wanted it) but I managed quite well. Decent value for money - it makes my camera look professionally fitted.
