Can't decide between the two. Only thing Vico has that I may need is more precise voltage presets. Vico 11.6v-12.6v in .2 increments, Blackvue 12v or 12.5v. Whats everyone using?

If your talking dashcams I bought a couple of battery packs for peace of mind for parking record , but I have 2 dual channel Thinkware (4 cameras ) so a little more demanding

I use the Vico but mainly because that was the dashcam I bought and what was recommended to me at the time.

Set it up according to instructions and haven't touched it since.

I use 2ch blackvues in all my vehicles and only use the power magic pro when I park in carparks etc with the 6hr timeout set and never had a problem with them.

I'm using Vico power plus on both my cars with 2ch Blackvues. I have them set to timer only, 4hr timeout from memory and no issues.
