The Future of Gaming: Exploring Nack Vue and Power Magic Pro

By admin

Nack VUE Power Magic Pro is a power management device designed for use with dash cameras. It is a compact and reliable unit that provides constant power to your dash cam when the car is turned off. One of the key features of the Nack VUE Power Magic Pro is its voltage cut-off settings. This device allows you to set a specific voltage level at which the power supply to the dash cam will be automatically cut off. This is important as it prevents the car battery from being drained completely, ensuring that your vehicle can still start even after long periods of inactivity. The Power Magic Pro also has a built-in timer function that allows you to schedule when the power supply should be cut off.


The B-124E (shown below in the photograph) is an expansion pack. It won’t work on its own, but hook it up to any of the other battery packs presented here, and it will extend their capacity by 6600 mAh.

According to the manufacturer, this battery pack allows for 16 to 20 hours of parking mode operation 20 hours for a single channel camera, and 16 hours for a dual channel device. 2017 M2 Coupe Black Sapphire Metallic DCT Nav Idrive M Performance CF Spoiler M Performance CF DCT Interior M Performance Gloss Black Kidney Grills M Performance Steel Pedals Eventuri CF CAI 19 Brixton Rims KW V3 Clubsport Retired 2008 328i Sedan Montego Blue.

The Power Magic Pro also has a built-in timer function that allows you to schedule when the power supply should be cut off. This is useful if you want to set a specific time for the power to be turned off, such as during nighttime when the car is not in use. With this feature, you can save power and extend the lifespan of your car battery.

Just trying to gather information and research to install this myself when I take delivery in the next few weeks.

I have a Blackvue DR650S-2CH with Power Magic Pro. Have done searches on best way to hardwire into the car and allow parking mode recording using the PMP. If possible, would like to avoid the 'Electronic discharge' warning that lots of people are receiving when hardwiring the dashcam.

Read a few options:
1. Hardwire using 'Mirror Tap', with PMP

2. Hardwire to Fusebox in the glove compartment with PMP

3. Hardwire to Fusebox in the trunk with PMP

Does anyone have any advice on a setup like this?
I'm leaning towards #2.

My DR650GW-2CH is hardwired with PMP using option #3.

There is no fusebox in or behind the glovebox for option #2.

Prodigy, can you tell me which fuses you used in the trunk? Also, can you tell me the dip switch settings you're using for the Power Magic Pro?

Awesome, thanks! Do you ever get the error warning message stating that something external is draining the battery?

1) For hard wiring the PMP into the M2, which fuse tap did you use:

the mini fuse tap
the low profile mini fuse tap
or the ATO?

2) For the camera's 'memory capacity', is that just the size of the SD card? I already have a few SD cards so I want to go with 16GB and just swap it out with one of my 128 or 256 card

3) Does the back camera video get recorded on the front camera SD?

1. 2 x Mini fuse tap.

2. Yes, the capacity is determined by the size of the memory card, personally I just use a 64gb card.

3. Yes, front & back on the same card, when you view back the footage you have separate files for front & back camera.

Do you have a pic of where you located your front cam? I'm guessing it is on the passenger side beside the rearview mirror plastic hump? If you have a chance, could you post a pic?

I used this for my Blackvue and Power Magic Pro.
It's a very detailed and excellent guide. Credit to Boosted Auto.
You'll need to go buy a few supplies though. Remember to buy a 'mini' fuse tap, not normal sized.

I went to blackvue's website. They have 3 kinds of fuse taps, namely ATO fuse, low profile mini fuse and mini fuse, which one should I get if I want to hardwire my blackvue with power magic pro via the rear fuse box?

Reviews for "Level Up Your Nack Vue Experience with Power Magic Pro"

- John - 2 stars - I was really disappointed with the Nack vue power magic pro. It claimed to provide a fast and efficient charging experience, but I found it to be quite slow and unreliable. It took forever to charge my devices and often stopped working after a few minutes. I also noticed that it did not hold a charge for very long, which defeated the purpose of having a portable charger. Overall, I would not recommend this product.
- Sarah - 1 star - The Nack vue power magic pro was a complete waste of money. It did not live up to its claims of being a high-quality charger. The charging speed was incredibly slow, and it often disconnected randomly, making it frustrating to use. Additionally, the build quality was poor, with the USB ports feeling loose and flimsy. Save your money and invest in a better charger.

It took a long time to fully charge my devices, which was inconvenient. Secondly, the build quality was subpar. The charger felt cheaply made and lacked durability. Lastly, I found that it did not hold a charge for a long time, which made it less reliable while on the go. Overall, I was not impressed with this product.
