Car Nextbase Dash Cam On Bike

[BristolRoversfc]

Hi.I have my Nextbase Dash Cam which I use in my car and was wondering if it is possible to use it on my PCX.
I imagine I could stick it to windshield and plug it into the 12v.cigar lighter socket inside front nearside pocket.
Maybe this may put too much drain on battery....im not sure.
Any thoughts please??

I have a dashcam on my PCX that is connected to a USB cable with an on/off switch on it. I originally had the camera connected directly to the battery, but it must have something that stays on because it ran my battery down just sitting parked.

The USB cable runs in the groove on the gas cap panel (attached with industrial Velcro) where it attaches to the red panel on the right side. The button is easy to get to.

By the way, that USB cable can handle 2 devices connected to it at the same time. The particular cable I purchased is plugged into my Battery Tender leads that stay connected to my battery, and I ran the cable through the seat hinge. (There is also a version of the cable that connects directly to the battery.) In the Amazon picture the USB part is attached to the handlebar. That attachment part slides off of the connector, so it isn't in the way.
