Changing Passwords

If you are planning on changing the battery password, you will need to enter the default password '1234' when prompted for the old password.

Note: There is no password retrieval or reset function. Password reset is a function that can only be performed by technicians at the manufacturer. The Reset function within the Battery Manager App is for resetting the default battery settings (ie. the Dual Charger setting) only and will not reset the password back to the default "1234".

Because of this, we strongly recommend that you don't change the password unless you absolutely needed to, and if you do change it, make sure to keep a record of the new password. Once you have changed the password, you will be asked to re-enter it every time you access the Settings menu within the Battery Manager App.

Works great!

I bought "BlackboxMyCar PowerCell 8 Battery / Power Output Cable w/Spliced VIOFO Type-C HK4 Hardwiring Kit (VIOFO A139/A229)" about a month ago and it works great with A229 Pro camera. Installation was super easy, as I used 12v socket to plug the battery pack, and provided pre-spliced cable to connect it to the camera.
I was not initially sure about "hardwiring kit" in the description, but support over the chat was very helpful and made it clear that I can just plug-and play the whole system.

I bought the battery for my son, I have had a similar battery and camera from this same company, that I have had for approximately five years, and there has been no problems at all. So I have no problems in purchasing the new battery,for him. My wife in the near future will have a camera and battery from Blackbox my car. Len.
