Parking Mode

1) IF I use the K7 parking mode

Isn’t there a Risk to drain my battery ?

I have a BMW R1250 GSA 2021 and NOCO NLP14 Batterry

2) If I have to Jump Start the battery for whatever reason, if I use the right NOCo protect, I guess I won’t damaged the K7 connected to this battery ?

It uses a small amount of current to sense movement etc.

When voltage drops to 12.5V it shuts right down.

I have let my bike sit a few days with no issues on startup.

Jumping should not affect any attached device.

Hi Jeff,
The amount of current at rest is indeed very small.
I have never had problems with draining the battery on my motorcycle (BMW K1600GT) with a battery from 2018 and an alarm system that is continuously on. After 6 weeks I could still start the engine without any problems. I have the K3 and the K5 on my bike.

With other Innovv cameras than the K7 with a separate power module, the power module switches off the parking mode when the battery voltage becomes too low. The blue LED on the power module then also goes out.

I expect that the K7 has the same voltage control, only not with a separate power module but built into the DVR.

  Worse case, adventure bike rider always have a lot of tools and gadget “just in case”. I have a Nocco GB40 ready to charge my dead battery…. LOL
