Restore the cigarette-lighter charging connection

This cable carries power from the vehicle socket to the PowerCell 8 battery pack. It replaces the input lead used for cigarette-lighter charging; the separate output cable connects the battery to your dash cam.

The 1.5m length gives you a defined cable run to plan around. Check the route to your battery location before ordering, and follow the PowerCell 8 installation instructions. The cable is for the battery's LOW charging mode, described as 5A charging in the product specification.

If you need household charging, the BlackboxMyCar 8A Power Inverter provides a compatible cigarette-lighter socket. Both the inverter and the battery pack are sold separately.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this an input or an output cable?

It is the input charging cable, from the vehicle cigarette-lighter socket to the PowerCell 8. It does not replace the output cable between the battery and your camera.

Which battery is it designed for?

It is the replacement cigarette-lighter charging lead for the PowerCell 8 battery pack, part number PC8-UpdtCLA. Confirm compatibility before using it with any other battery.

Which charging setting should I select?

Set the PowerCell 8 to LOW for cigarette-lighter charging. This is the nominal 5A charging mode. Follow the instructions for your battery revision.

How long is the cable?

The cable is 1.5m long, approximately 5ft. Check the distance between the vehicle socket and your intended battery position.

Does this replace the hardwire input cable?

No. This cable plugs into a cigarette-lighter socket. A fuse-box installation uses the separate hardwire input cable and its own installation instructions.

Can I use it with household power?

Yes, with a compatible AC-to-DC supply such as the BlackboxMyCar 8A Power Inverter. Connect through its cigarette-lighter socket and keep the battery in LOW mode.

Will a replacement cable fix every charging problem?

No. A faulty cable is one possible cause. Check the socket and connections, and use the PowerCell 8 charging troubleshooting guide or contact support before replacing parts.

Fits the BlackVue B-130X

I wanted an extra charger attachment to use at home. The BlackVue cable was expensive with expensive shipping. The BBMC adapter works on the BV and is a lot cheaper.
