USB Inside the Console Bin?

[AZ_Ryan]

I ordered two, each with a USB-A and USB-C. Flexibility is the name of the game.

Just out of curiosity, what do you plan on changing with those inside the arm rest?

Side note, many people don't know there is a USB port under the rear view mirror for radar detectors and dash cams.

Not sure. I will be cruising all over the country in this car, just like I did in my 2022. Might need to charge phones and watches (driver and passenger). Flexibility!

All USB C ports should be fast charge. The power plug outlets require an adapter to USB that typically is not fast charge.

Yes... but there isn't a usb-c in the console... I was referring to the S550 usb-a in console which charges @ a lower rate... and there are plenty of adapters that charge at faster rates available (though many are not... gotta read the specs).

I plan on using the Rearview mirror USB for the Fitcam Dashcam.

Most likely I'll do what others have posted and get something like this for phone charging: https://www.lightinthebox.com/en/p/...torage-car-super-fast-charging_p11288996.html

Then I'll have the other two ports free for my USB music collection.

Does fitcam have one for the S650?

Yeah it does. This is the one I plan on getting: https://fitcamx.com/products/fitcam...2024-2025-s650-7th-gen?variant=44006824804524

An interesting point about the power port. When I first got my car, I started using the USB forward of the gear shift to connect and charge my phone. But then I started having issues with my Apple Car Play disconnecting while I was driving. Normally, I'd have to pull over and turn the car off to get it to reconnect, but sometime even multiple restarts wouldn't restore connectivity. I've since switched to using the power port under the arm rest and it seems to have solved the problem since my phone isn't connected through the USB.

Most likely the cord. If you aren't using an Apple or Samsung cord, the car play apps have issues staying connected.
