I think that might be the problem, I'm currently using a cigarette lighter splitter for the blackvue and my iPod. The power cable doesn't sit all the way into the splitter opening.
Although, one issue is when power or voltage drops, the blackvue should say "the blackvue is now shutting down." Instead, it seems like it keeps restarting so it doesn't seem like an interminent power issue.
My suspension is pretty stiff as well so the power cable might be jumping around loose, but it's never lost power.
