Dash cameras (dashboard cameras) are essential for vehicle security, recording driving footage for accident evidence, insurance claims, and personal safety. Most dash cams are powered via a car's power supply, but they also include built-in batteries or capacitors to support brief operation when the engine is off. Battery-powered features ensure dash cams can continue recording during emergencies, power loss, or when parked—providing continuous protection.
Many dash cams use small lithium-ion batteries or supercapacitors to provide short-term power after ignition is turned off—for file saving, auto shutoff, or parking mode.
Batteries allow the dash cam to operate in parking surveillance mode, detecting motion or impact even when the car is off.
Built-in batteries ensure safe file storage in case of sudden power loss during an accident.
Many models include battery status icons or alerts in the display or mobile app to signal charging needs.
Dash cams with batteries can be charged via USB, allowing for portable use in different vehicles or as a handheld recording device.
Models with capacitors instead of batteries are often more resistant to extreme heat or cold, making them ideal for harsh climates.
