does anyone have experience with the Dongar usb adapter to split power from the mirror?
in my other car, i already have an escort 360c along with escort's M2 camera which daisy chains the RJ11 jack to provide power for both the cam and detector. this is installed in my using a mirror tap and blendmount. convenient and streamlined setup. but i'm thinking of getting a different camera, as the escort M2 IQ and interface isn't exactly great. was thinking of a dedicated dash cam and also utilizing features like park-mode.
i assume the Dongar USB splitter only provides power when the car is on or in accessory mode? would it possible to use both the MIrror Tap (to power the radar detector) and the Dongar harness (to power a camera) simultaneously?
