Okay, so as someone who is looking to install a couple of Blackvue cameras on my vehicle (I'm considering install 2 of these so that it would be like this setup), this obviously has me kind of worried. Is the issue tapping into the 12v plug (it sounds like that may draw power from this port even when the car is off?), or does this have more to do with the car not entering idle state? If, for example, someone were to install the Blackvue camera and this battery pack into the 12v ports in the trunk of the car (as RRKnight did here) and chance the settings to where the car enters idle mode once the door is opened, would that be enough to avoid the battery drainage issues?
