Getting power to a dash cam recorder using a Dash Cam Power Adapter
"Please note that an auto-dimming rearview mirror is required to power this adapter. "
The adapter is plug and play - it provides a handy USB power source for radar or dash cams. And it eliminates the need to run a lot of wiring.
Plus, it activates when the ignition is turned on. And turns off when ignition is turned off. (30 second off delay is optional)
My old F350 truck camper already had a dash cam - this new dash cam went into the tow'd Jeep Trailhawk.
The Dash Cam Power Adapter manufacturer makes adapters for several different vehicles.
The exposed USB cord was visually unkempt. A right-angle USB adapter solved the issue.

I traded in the problematic 2014 Lance for an 1150 Arctic Fox - wish EC made the 1150.
The rig looks similar to this - nothing exceeds factory weight limits.
