The Garmin Constant Power Cable Obd2 provides continuous power to your Garmin dash cam, ensuring 24/7 surveillance of your vehicle even when it’s parked. This easy-to-install “plug and play” cable connects directly to your vehicle’s OBD-II port, offering peace of mind knowing your car is always protected.
Dual USB Ports for Multiple Camera Connections
The Garmin constant power cable OBD2 features dual USB power ports, allowing you to connect up to two Garmin dash cams simultaneously. This enables comprehensive coverage by recording from multiple angles. For instance, you could use a Garmin Dash Cam 57 in the front and a Garmin Dash Cam Mini 2 in the rear for complete front and rear video recording.
Customizable Power Modes with Adjustable Timer
This OBD-II power cable offers three selectable power modes to tailor your dash cam’s operation:
10-Minute Mode
In this mode, your dash cam will continue recording for 10 minutes after you turn off your engine, then automatically power down. It will reactivate when you restart your engine. This mode is ideal for short stops and minimizes battery drain.
24-Hour Mode
This mode keeps your Garmin dash cam running for 24 hours after your vehicle is turned off. The integrated low battery protection feature safeguards your vehicle’s battery by shutting down the camera if the voltage drops below 12V, preventing a dead battery.
Always-On Mode
This mode provides continuous power to your dash cam. The low battery protection will still activate if the voltage drops below 12V, ensuring your vehicle’s battery remains protected. The camera will power back on when the engine restarts.
The built-in timer automatically resets if motion is detected, an impact occurs, a car door opens, or the engine is running.
Low Voltage Protection for Your Car Battery
The Garmin OBD2 constant power cable has a built-in safety feature that protects your vehicle’s battery from excessive drain. If the battery voltage falls below 12.0V, the cable will shut down power to the dash cam within 10 minutes.
LED Status Indicator for Easy Monitoring
The red status LED on the cable indicates its operational status:
- Solid Red: The cable is supplying power to connected devices.
- Flashing Red: The timer has expired, and the cable is no longer providing power.
- Off: The cable is receiving less than 12V, indicating low battery protection has activated.

- 6 Series
