Yes, the VANTRUE OBD Hardwire Power Cable is designed to work with Indian cars. It connects to the standard 12V accessory socket or OBD-II port found in most vehicles, providing power for your dash cam's parking mode. The low voltage protection ensures your car battery isn't drained, a crucial feature for Indian driving conditions. All customs duties and GST are included in the price. ### How does the low voltage protection work? The smart low voltage protection system automatically cuts power to your dash cam when the car's battery voltage drops below your selected threshold (11.6V, 12V, or 12.4V for 12V systems; 23.6V, 24V, or 24.4V for 24V systems). This prevents the dash cam from draining the battery completely, ensuring your car can still start. ### What is the purpose of the LED digital display screen? The LED digital display screen shows the real-time voltage of your car's battery and the voltage level you have set for low voltage protection. This allows you to monitor your battery's status and ensure the system is functioning correctly, protecting both your battery and your dash cam. ### What is the cable length and connector type? This VANTRUE hardwire power cable features a generous 3.05m (10ft) length, providing ample reach for most vehicles. It uses a USB-C connector for power output, compatible with Vantrue dash cams, and connects to the car's OBD-II port for input power. ### Is a memory card included with this power cable? No, a memory card is not included with this VANTRUE OBD Hardwire Power Cable. This accessory is solely for powering your dash cam, particularly for parking mode surveillance. You will need to purchase a compatible microSD card separately for your dash cam's recording functionality. ### How do I install the VANTRUE OBD Hardwire Power Cable? Installation is straightforward. Connect the OBD-II end of the cable to your car's OBD-II port. Then, connect the USB-C end to the power input port on your Vantrue dash cam's bracket.
