Hi Carlos,
The Thunderbox can supply the Innovv with power. It is possible that the K6 will start up when it is offered a supply voltage, but this is not the correct/good order for the K6.
The red and black wires of the power supply must be supplied with continuous voltage. The yellow wire is the wire to switch the K6 on and off as it should. If you now turn off the ignition and the Thunderbox switches off the power to the K6, there is a good chance that the last video recording in progress will be written corruptly. This can also cause problems with your SD card.
When the K6 is off, the power consumption is so low that this should not be a problem for your battery. But since the LED on the power module flashes red, this means that the supply voltage is too low. I therefore suspect that your battery is either old/bad or that it is no longer charged properly.
A power supply voltage that is too low can cause the K6 to not function properly
