Try turning on your dashcams accelerometer so it only runs while moving and shuts down after a few minutes of standstill... This might save you from a wiring job.

interesting, during my lunch break, i will test this out and report back. there charging cable has a blue light indicator, i will turn the dash cam off with the cable still plugged in and see if the blue light stays lit after 15 mins.
