Your car’s 12V accessory battery can get drained if you have an accessory like a dashcam that runs 24/7, and it can eventually cause your 12V battery to fail permanently. Fortunately, there is a solution to protect your 12V battery, the Blackboxmycar Powercell 8 Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4) battery pack, with Bluetooth. If you want to see the product and its details, how it can be installed, and find out how much it costs, then this video is for you. I hope you like it.
CRITICAL INFO – UPDATE 2023-06-18 :
– (A) I repeat a mistake in the Viofo T130 specs, saying it is a 4K camera, but that is an error, it is actually a 2K front camera. Sorry about the confusion.
– (B) The Blackboxmycar Web page for the Powercell 8 has a note hidden at the bottom of the specs and is kind of critical. I wish I had known before making the video because I would have put far more emphasis on it…

Changing Passwords
If you are planning on changing the battery password, you will need to enter the default password ‘1234’ when prompted for the old password.
Note: There is no password retrieval or reset function. Password reset is a function that can only be performed by technicians at the manufacturer. The Reset function within the Battery Manager App is for resetting the default battery settings (ie. the Dual Charger setting) only and will not reset the password back to the default "1234".
Because of this, we strongly recommend that you don’t change the password unless you absolutely needed to, and if you do change it, make sure to keep a record of the new password. Once you have changed the password, you will be asked to re-enter it every time you access the Settings menu within the Battery Manager App.
