I was thinking of replacing the cable to a usb type that would be powered by the same phone charger that's installed on the cig power supply.

    I've scoured all the pc shops and cable monster, but to no avail. Do you have any lead/s to a reliable supplier? I'm primarily looking for a 3-5 meters long cable. Will it have any "loss" in transmitting anything from and to with that length?

    Thank you.
    You just need a 2m cable to connect it from the dashcam to the 12V port, or better yet, directly to the car's ignition so you free up your 12V port.

    Thanks for the prompt response.

    Tapping it to ignition is the best way imo, however, that car would be primarily used by my parents. My father specifically, doesn't want to touch anything on the electronics, thus using the cig port is the only way for me to install the dash cam.
