Wired power for Wheel Witness Dash cam

[DrDan]

My XLT Hybrid Maverick is currently in production and if all goes well I should have it in about a month. I’d like to connect my Wheel Witness Dash Cam with one of these new cables that plugs into the fuse box so it gets power only when the key is turned on. My Dash Cam uses a USB-mini plug (see photo below)….so I have found this cable from Amazon and wonder if it shouldn’t work.
Here it is:

Thoughts?

Should work fine. Similar to what I used, plugged in to fuse #3 in passenger floorboard.

The one I used.

The fuse box is on the passenger side?

Yeah you can check it out in beginning part of my video, the rest is long and unique to my situation for my front and rear dashcam setup, but it might be helpful as well.

I noticed you had a sheet of paper with all the various fuses labeled on the fuse box....where did you find that? That would be very helpful.

I copied this from the Manual and put it on one page.

Turns on/off with the Truck ignition and it was easiest to get the adapter in, for me anyway.
