Parking mode is the most misunderstood feature on dash cams - and the most important if your car sits on the street or in a carpark overnight. SpeedSafe has just published a full explainer on dash cam parking mode for Melbourne drivers. The short version: parking mode only works reliably when your dash cam is hardwired to a dedicated fuse with a low-voltage cutoff. A cigarette lighter plug will not cut it. At our Sunshine workshop we hardwire every install to a constant power source with the right protection built in. The GKU D600 Pro and GKU D700 both support full parking mode out of the box. Installs from $280. Book online or visit 9/17 Third Avenue, Sunshine VIC. Mon-Fri, 9am-5pm.
