Hi Guys,

I have a Blackvue DR300G fitted in my van.
When it is plugged into the cig lighter in the ashtray, the thing has power to it 24/7. So it records even when the van is parked, which I do not want it to do.
I have an extra Waeco power outlet fitted for a Waeco fridge. This is run direct to the battery, and has a switch on it so you can choose to have it on 24/7, or only when the motor is running.
The question I have is, why wont the blackvue work at all when plugged into this power outlet (yet everything else will work, fridge, phone charger etc.), yet it will only work when plugged into the factory cig lighter?
Is the factory cig lighter wired differently, or does it send a signal??????
