JAKARTA - The dashcam device has now become an important accessory for every vehicle, because it can record the area around the vehicle and provide complete information and of course calm for users.

However, the installation of a dashcam device cannot be arbitrary, aka it must be in the right way so as not to cause new problems in the vehicle.

"It is recommended that the installation be carried out to experts, because if it is not true it can damage the battery components itself," said CEO 70mai Indonesia, Winsen to the media crew at the GIIAS 2024 exhibition.

Especially for dashcam users who use hard wire kit technology. A component that can continue to activate the dashcam even though the car is not on and is in contact with the car battery. If the installation is not correct, it can damage the car battery.

"Actually, this is more about using hard wire kit parts, a part that allows these products to remain active even though the car is dead, to monitor the surrounding environment, especially if there is a shock. The application is through a parking mode system," he added.

Furthermore, he said this component would immediately come into contact with the car battery, therefore, if the installation is not correct and appropriate, it will interfere with the health of the battery.

In addition, when users apply a dashcam carelessly, it can worsen the appearance of the car's interior, it will clearly disturb comfort when lingering in the car.

"Actually, it's aesthetically true. If the installed is not true, the cables that should enter the installation in the vehicle will be clearly displayed," he concluded.
