Dash cam settings

[wrvond]

I’ve installed a BlackVue 770X but am concerned over parking mode cutoff. I do not want to come Out to a truck that won’t start but I do want to maximize coverage.
What cutoff voltage do you guys have your cameras set at?

I have a different brand but similar wiring. If you’re at all worried, set it to the highest voltage which will shut it off at the earliest time. Use it and see how it goes. See if you get enough recording time for your needs.

None of the settings should put you at risk but always start there (IMHO) and if it gets you what you need leave it there.

I guess another way to ask the question is what is generally the lowest voltage required to be able to start the CTD reliably?
I recognize ambient temperature has a huge influence on how much energy is needed to start the truck.
Just trying to get a feel without actually killing my batteries.

When I used that type of cam, I think I had a cutoff at 10v
