So I have my new Blackvue camera hardwired into my car with a Cellink B battery pack for power during parking recording.
My only issue is that Blackvue cameras don't have a physical power button. When I park at home (in my garage) I don't need the camera running. With my Thinkware F770 I could press the power button, but with my Blackvue 750 I have to pull the power connector (this could lead to stress on the plug).
I found a 12v inline switch solution on Aliexpress. Unfortunately they only make switches with 5.5 x 2.1mm connectors, so two male/female 1.35mm x 3.5mm adapters are needed to be compatible with the Blackvue power port.

They list shipping as 20 to 50 days, but I received my order very quickly.
