Hi LC forum!
Introducing our latest product... Dongar PRO! This novel USB adapter converts your rearview mirror (or plugs into the 5-pin OEM dashcam adapter in the domelight cavity) into a power source for your dashcam or USB device, all in under 5 minutes
. Not only does this mean hiding messy wires, your dashcam stays ON after you've shut the vehicle off, thanks to intelligent parking mode!
How does this work?
Toyota/Lexus provides both constant-on and ignition-switched wires to the mirror to power the garage door buttons. In the 4G Tacoma, new Land Cruisers, new 4Runners etc, they’ve even provisioned a power connector specifically for dash cams. Our USB buck converter provides 5V/9V/12V output over its USB-C port continuously via the constant-on and reads it to monitor your truck's battery voltage. The ignition-switched wire is read out to determine when the vehicle is on, or if there’s an over voltage condition, etc.
What are the features?
The adapter has 3 modes:
1) ignition: your dashcam turns on and off with your Tacoma’s ignition
2) continuous: your dashcam stays on all the time, as long as your truck’s 12V battery is above the low-voltage protection threshold. This was designed to minimize draining your battery below engine cranking levels.
3) timed mode: keeps your dashcam powered on for 4 hours after turning the ignition off. There’s many use cases for this, but one example is when you tend to park you car in the garage at night/weekend and therefore don’t need true 24/7 parking mode except when you go in errands around town, and on average most vehicles are parked in public parking lots less than 4hrs at a time. The 4 hour timer resets each time you turn the ignition off.
How do you install it??
The Dongar PRO module sticks directly onto your windshield.
What's included?
We include 3 different wiring harnesses: 12pin, 5pin, and 10pin. The Land Cruiser has a 10pin connector at the rearview mirror and a 5pin connector in the domelight cavity (this is actually provisioned from the factory to use the Toyota OEM dashcam!)
