Hi, can't see any reason why you can't hardwire this piece of kit, from the battery or via the fusebox. But hang on, I'm no expert - you'll find plenty of people here who are.

Fusebox at the front of the car may be simpler without having to pass a length of wire through the whole car. Just need to find a constant live - friend of mine uses a pin connected to a meter and earth and pokes tiny holes in the various wires to find the necessary live.

I've thought about one of these devices too but opted for a through-power (charge in and supply out at the same time) device instead.

Let us know what route you opted for and good luck.

Regards,
Martin

If your only using it with the engine on i.e. no economy mode, then you could take a spur off the cigarette lighter socket?

Or on the back of the radio there should be a red and yellow cable, one is a switched live and one a permanent live.

Tnx for answer. I have wierd it from the fusebox in the back, because i got 2 cameras, 1 in fron and 1 back. The Power Magic cut the power when the battery is dovn to 11,8 v. So there is no problem with starting the car.
