VIOFO BP100: 98Wh Dash Cam Battery Pack

The BP100 stores power while you drive and supplies a compatible dash cam when parked. Its 98Wh LiFePO4 battery includes both hardwire and cigarette-lighter charging cables, plus a dedicated Type-C camera cable for supported VIOFO models.

Choose it when you want a separate parking-power reserve, Bluetooth battery monitoring and the option to add EP100 expansion batteries. Runtime depends on the camera and recording mode; the quoted 32 hours is a single-camera, 3W test example.

Parking Power

A separate power reserve for parking recording

The BP100 has a nominal capacity of 12.8V, 7,650mAh and 98Wh. VIOFO rates it for approximately 32 hours with a dash cam consuming 3W. Additional camera channels, different recording settings and a device charging from USB change the load and runtime.

A system such as the VIOFO A329S front-and-rear kit needs its own runtime estimate. The battery provides power; the camera still needs a suitable parking mode, memory card and settings.

The pack measures 171 × 171 × 35mm and weighs approximately 1.22kg. Allow space for cables and ventilation, then secure it where it cannot interfere with moving seat hardware or vehicle controls.

Charge through the fuse box or a vehicle socket

Both charging methods are included. VIOFO quotes a full charge within approximately 70 minutes through the hardwire input, or around 100 minutes through the cigarette-lighter input. A short drive can add useful charge without necessarily filling an empty pack.

The input range is 11.8V to 28V, supporting suitable 12V and 24V vehicle installations. Follow the BP100 manual for its constant-power, ACC and ground connections; the ACC signal tells the pack when the vehicle is off. A socket that stays live can continue supplying power, so check its behavior before using it.

There is one included fuse tap per type. If both selected circuits use the same fuse size, compare the required type with our Add-A-Fuse options. Match the vehicle circuits and cable requirements rather than choosing by appearance.

Use the output that supports parking mode

For a compatible USB-C-powered VIOFO camera, connect the included 4m Type-C hardwire output cable to the battery's dedicated Output port and the camera's specified power connection. That cable provides the parking-mode signal, so a separate camera hardwire kit is unnecessary.

The ordinary USB-C port on the battery supplies 5V at up to 3A but does not provide the ACC signal for automatic parking mode. The included cigarette-socket output adapter also provides ordinary power without parking-mode support.

For a Mini-USB camera or another brand, confirm the exact cable, voltage and parking-signal requirements before ordering. The box includes a three-wire output adapter, but it does not establish universal compatibility. VIOFO's current guide specifically says not to connect an HK6 to the BP100 output.

Monitor in the current VIOFO app and expand when needed

The main VIOFO app now includes BP100 monitoring. Update the app and supported device firmware, open Devices, add the battery pack and connect over Bluetooth. You can see charge level, temperature, input and output readings, and estimated time remaining. The older separate VIOFO Battery app is no longer required.

VIOFO's current setup guide also explains how to bind a supported camera to the pack. Features such as a battery-level stamp or a reserve-capacity parking setting depend on the camera and firmware; the guide specifies A329-series firmware V2.2 or later. Bluetooth monitoring works nearby, not as remote internet or Cloud access.

For more stored energy, the BP100 supports up to two EP100 expansion batteries, sold separately. One adds another 98Wh; two bring nominal capacity to 294Wh. Set and check the expansion count in the battery app. Extra capacity also takes longer to charge, and EP100 units cannot work as standalone camera batteries.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long will the BP100 run my dash cam?

The 32-hour figure is based on a single camera consuming 3W under test conditions. Your camera model, number of channels, parking mode, temperature and battery condition affect runtime. Use the app estimate for your setup rather than treating 32 hours as a guarantee.

Do I need to buy a hardwire kit as well?

Not for a compatible Type-C VIOFO camera using the supplied 4m parking-mode output cable. The battery also includes its own vehicle-side charging leads. Other camera connections need an exact compatibility check; do not add an HK6 to the BP100 output.

Which port supports parking mode?

Use the dedicated port labeled Output with the correct hardwire camera output cable. The USB-C port on the battery and the cigarette-socket output adapter provide ordinary power without the parking-mode ACC signal.

Can I use the cigarette lighter to charge it?

Yes. The 2m cigarette-lighter input cable is included, with a full-charge estimate of approximately 100 minutes. Check whether your vehicle socket turns off with the ignition. An always-powered socket can continue drawing vehicle power.

How does the hardwire installation stop charging while parked?

The BP100 charging lead uses constant power, ACC and ground. When correctly installed, the pack detects that ACC is off and stops charging from the vehicle. Use the manual and a qualified installer to identify suitable circuits and fuse taps.

Are two matching fuse taps included?

No. There is one tap of each of four supplied types. An installation using two circuits of the same fuse type needs an additional matching tap. Check the vehicle and chosen circuits before ordering.

Can I use it with BlackVue, Thinkware or an older VIOFO?

Do not assume the included Type-C cable fits or triggers parking mode on another camera. Check its voltage, connector and parking signal. A Mini-USB model needs its own suitable cable or an approved adapter setup. Ask us to confirm the complete connection for your exact model.

Can I reuse cables from a different battery pack?

The BP100 input and expansion connectors are not interchangeable with the BlackVue, BlackboxMyCar, Cellink or Thinkware battery cables described in our existing compatibility notes. Use cables specified for the BP100 and check any camera-output adapter separately.

Which app should I use now?

Use the current main VIOFO app. Battery monitoring has been integrated there, so the older separate VIOFO Battery app is no longer required. Update supported firmware before following the current setup guide.

Can I see the battery level away from the vehicle?

The BP100 monitoring connection is Bluetooth. You need to be nearby; the battery does not add cellular service or Cloud access. Readings pause when your phone is outside Bluetooth range.

Why can my new phone not connect?

The current app binds the battery to its first connected phone. Unbind it in the previous phone's battery settings, or follow VIOFO's procedure of pressing the battery power button five times quickly to reset its pairing. Then connect from the new phone.

How many expansion batteries can I add?

Use up to two EP100 units. One brings nominal stored energy to 196Wh and two to 294Wh. Check the expansion count in the battery app, especially with two units, so its capacity and time estimates are calculated correctly. Extra batteries also increase charging time.

Can I charge the BP100 through USB-C?

No. The USB-C port is output-only. Charge the battery through its dedicated input using the supplied hardwire or cigarette-lighter lead. USB-C can power a compatible phone at up to 5V/3A; that load reduces energy available to the camera.

What temperature limits apply?

The specified charging range is 0°C to 50°C. Charging pauses below freezing. Keep the pack dry, ventilated and out of direct sun. Its temperature protection and alerts do not make it fireproof or suitable for unrestricted heat; check the manual before installation.

Does it support 24V vehicles?

Yes. The specified input range is 11.8V to 28V, with support for suitable 12V and 24V systems. The camera must connect through the correct output cable, not directly to the vehicle supply.

What warranty comes with the battery?

The BP100 manual specifies an 18-month warranty from purchase. This is the battery's own stated coverage, rather than an assumption based on a dash cam warranty.

Thanks for the five stars, Michael! We’re glad you’re pleased with the quality of your BP100 and appreciate your support.

Decent

The hardwire kit comes with 4 fuse taps of 4 DIFFERENT types. And how many do you need to properly hardwire it to the fuse box? 2 fuse taps of the SAME type. Why ship with only 1 of the 2 fuse taps needed to actually hardwire the battery? I expected the battery to come with all the parts it needs or say you need extra fuse taps, I don't expect to have to purchase something extra to make it work.

Thanks for your honest feedback, Jason. We completely understand your frustration. The fuse tap assortment is packaged by VIOFO, so this was out of our control. That said, we have already shared this feedback with VIOFO so they know customers expect two of each type instead of only one of each.

We appreciate you pointing this out and hope the BP100 itself has been performing well for you. If you ever need any further assistance with your purchase, our team is always happy to assist.

So far so good

I got this battery pack to pair with VIOFO A329s. I went with this kit since it supports native parking mode with VIOFO cameras without any spliced cables, and potentially hybrid parking mode in the future with support for battery voltage via bluetooth. The battery is quite large but it snugly fit under the seat of an Integra Type S. According to the app, it takes roughly 40 min to fully charge from 20% which is quite fast. Any regular commute should be plenty enough to last the whole day at the parking lot.

One minor ding for this kit is that it only came with 1 add a fuse cable for low profile mini and standard fuses. Strangely enough, the micro fuse did come with 2 add a fuses so maybe it is an early release snafu. I ended up stripping one of the cables to use my own add a fuse kit since I did not have any spare quick connect add a fuse on hand.

Thanks for the detailed review! We’re glad to hear the BP100 has been a good match for your A329S and that the fast charging and fit under the seat are working out well. We also appreciate you pointing out the add-a-fuse cable detail, that kind of feedback is helpful and we’ll pass it along.
