Product Description
7,500mAh/96Wh high-capacity battery designed for parking mode, the B-130X is slightly more compact than its predecessor, the B-124X, but offers 25% more power and is more accurate thanks to the new fuel gauge-integrated circuit. The compact aluminum casing optimizes heat dissipation and lets users easily hide it under a seat or even fit it in a glove compartment.

I previously had one of BlackVue's PowerMagic Pro for the OBDII port and it was fine - but I think it was damaging my battery over time - even on the highest voltage switch setting. This battery is a better option overall for parking mode coverage.
The Good
Battery Life: I was expecting a pretty big hit running a dual camera setup but from the timing I've been looking at the estimated life left, it's been averaging around the estimated 20-21 hours of backup time. This is more than enough to get through a standard work week for me. And I'm "fortunate" enough to have about a 20-25 minute commute each way so it keeps the battery pretty much topped up just going back and forth to work and running errands over the weekend.
Charging Time: You'll definitely want to hardwire this. If you're trying to recharge this from the 12V plug, it's going to take a lot of driving. With the hardwire connection, it is close to the 40 min estimated time in the listing. I'd say it's just a hair longer than that at maybe 45-50 minutes from dead - but still pretty quick.
Good App: The app is simple but it works well and provides real time info. I can even connect to it from inside the house to check the battery level (when I was trying to gauge the remaining life). I would like to see this integrated into the regular BlackVue app so I don't have to have two apps, but it's not too big of a deal.
The Meh
Size: This thing is not small and it's not light, and there was no clean place that I could install it in my footwells (2016 4Runner). I ended up velcroing it to the top of the inside of my glovebox. Thankfully there's a little removable door on the side of my glovebox so I could run the cables right into without drilling. And I can still access my cabin air filter panel without removing the battery. If you're going to mount it upside down, I would recommend tossing out the included velcro strips and replacing with something like 3M's Dual Lock heavy duty fastener instead.
Connections: Well, one connection is annoying for me, really. This should really come with a cable to directly wire a BlackVue camera without using the 12V cig lighter plug. That just takes up even more space where you're mounting it and provides a potential failure point for your connection - you may want to consider taping this up with some electrical tape to keep secure. I'm sure the 12V connector is included to make it compatible with a lot of other cameras, but this is a BlackVue product, for this price, it should come with a direct wire to connect the camera.
That's probably it. I don't think there's really "bad" about this... other than the price. I'd definitely recommend it if you're looking for a solid backup solution for parking mode.

Other than those occasions where this blackvue battery didn't switch to parking mode, this has been a good alternative to my current situation. When the car warranty is over and when this blackvue battery dies, I will connect it to the car battery under the hood. For now, blackvue serves its purpose!
