ABOUT SUPER CAPACITOR INFORMATION
AUTO POWER ON/OFF
Super Capacitor is used to generate electricity. Power of R1 Dash Cam is delivered
by a Super Capacitor which is a premium alternative to a lithium-ion battery. This
features an enhanced temperature resistance to hot and cold climates.
Auto Power ON: ROVE R1 Dash Cam is designed to turn ON and start recording
autometically when it receives power. i.e. when the car engine is started.
Auto Power OFF: The camera is also pre-configured to turn itself OFF automati-
cally within few seconds when the power gets disconnected, i.e. when the car
key is turned to LOCK position.
To manually turn ON: Press the power button once.
To manually turn OFF: Press and hold the power button for at least 2 seconds
A capacitor uses conductive plates with an insulating barrier (dielectric) in
between them. The dielectric stops the electrical current entering the capacitor
and this builds up a charge which is stored between the plates.
It charges faster than a battery. The amount of charge a capacitor can hold
depends upon its capacitance or the charge storage capacity.
ROVE R1’s Super Capacitor will hold the charge for about 2 seconds.

How it works?
ROVE R1 dash cam uses a super capacitor which makes it a unique reliable
dash cam on power consumption and safety. Capacitors are more reliable due to
the fact that they are way more resistant to heat unlike batteries; they don’t pose
the risk of overheating and exploding. Super Capacitors extend the overall
product life span and it is built to last.
Why Super Capacitor?
NOTE: If your car’s 12V Outlet is always HOT even when your car is key is locked,
then this auto power on/off feature will not work. To remedy this situation please
