So I do currently have my Vantrue N4 Pro hardwired for both battery and accessory modes, But as I drive a 2024 Prius Prime, it's 12 volt battery is rather minuscule so parking mode does not last long at all.

So I'm looking for recommendations on a battery pack that I can utilize with the Vantrue N4 Pro as I'm pretty happy with the camera itself currently and I'm not really looking to pull the wiring out and redo everything.

Just looking at some recommendations, I did see the three listed in the community notes for this subreddit, but just looking for other options to compare with.

And I did see that some simply wire to the cameras negative, battery and accessory wires directly, Which looks to be what I would want and need.

Just a note to anyone wanting to use my room mode, which is in itself pretty awesome, but there is a small crevit, it does not function when the battery is already at 100%, it will not pull power from an EVSE, and it will leave you an accessory mode.

I was a little surprised, I've never tried to use it at 100% before, But we were killing time in the parking garage and I was still plugged up and attempted to get it into my room mode, but it refused, it didn't even prompt the option.

So this is just an FYI to everyone.

So starting this drive this morning, I was able to switch from the primary profile to the secondary profile.

But after switching drivers I was unable to switch back to the primary profile because after typing in the pin number it comes up with an error of no network connection.

I can understand not being able to add a new profile with no network connection, but not being able to switch profiles is ridiculous, it should be able to utilize the last cached copy of the settings if there is no network connection to check for changes that may have been made on another vehicle.
