VIOFO HK5 Hardwire Kit – USB-C for the VS1, Right-Angle Connector

The Hardwire Kit Built Around the VS1. VIOFO HK5 with a right-angled USB-C plug and four cut-off levels

The VS1 is a deliberately slim camera, and a straight USB-C plug sticking out of it defeats the point. The HK5 uses a right-angled connector that tucks the cable flat against the body, so the install stays as discreet as the camera. It also does the real job: constant fuse-box power so Parking Mode runs when you are not there, with a cut-off that protects your starter battery.

Who This Isn't For: This is specified for the VIOFO VS1. If you run an A139, A229 or A329, the HK3-C or HK4 is the right kit, and for Hybrid Parking Mode on the A329S you need the HK6. Older Mini-USB cameras take the Mini HK3.

DCG Score & Highlights

What We Love

• Right-angled USB-C keeps the cable flat against the VS1 rather than protruding
• Four selectable cut-off levels from 11.8 V to 12.4 V
• Proper 3-wire loom with BATT, ACC and GND for true ignition sensing
• 4 m cable, enough to route the A-pillar and reach the fuse box
• Offered in several fuse-tap types so you can match your fuse box

What Could Be Better

• Fuse taps are sold separately, so add the correct style to your order.
• Output is 5 V 2 A, which suits the VS1 but leaves less headroom than the 2.5A HK3-C for bigger setups.
• Voltage cut-off only, with no parking timer.

Why Parked Protection Needs a Hardwire Kit

The cigarette socket cuts out with the ignition on almost every car, which means a camera powered from it stops recording the moment you walk away. That is precisely when car parks, kerbside parking and driveways do their damage. A hardwire kit supplies constant power, tells the camera you have parked, and stops drawing before your battery is compromised.

Top Benefits

• Discreet on a slim camera: The right-angled plug keeps the VS1 install looking tidy.
• Parked recording unlocked: Constant power keeps motion and impact detection running.
• Battery protection you set: Four cut-off levels to match your battery's condition.
• Automatic switching: ACC sensing puts the camera into Parking Mode at shutdown.
• Frees the 12V socket: Your accessory socket stays available.
