4 Car Accessories You Need for Daily Driving

#11

For now, I just need my PowerDrive & PowerLine II. Could use a halfway decent phone mount, though, considering California’s hands-free laws.

The Roav DashCam C2 doesn’t have WiFi, how would it communicate with the Roav app? :thinking: It is a trusting companion since I got it, but I do have to remove the card to review footage.

I have two Anker cables in my car - a short one for the main console to use CarPlay, and a long one for the console compartment - where I have a second USB plug - for the passenger’s phone. Being in Canada, during winter times I always carry a snow brush/ice scrapper, shovel and traction aids. In several underfloor compartments in the trunk there are several emergency kit items. And lots of reusable bags for grocery shopping. I would have a PowerCore Jump Starter if it was available in Canada… :rolling_eyes:

As @andrewtiangco, I also have a couple of window shades. And the blind spot mirrors seems like a great idea, I’m looking into those right now.

I’ve got Blind spot mirrors built into my existing mirrors, window shades built into the doors. But would definitely like a dash cam and jump starter.

I always carry an umbrella too. Never know when you will be stranded.

Only 4 eh?

  1. Emergency kit
  2. Anker’s IPhone Charger
  3. Spare clothes (especially in the winter)
  4. Those tiny rear view mirror things. I literally can’t park straight without them. XD

Mini jump starter sure seems awesome; definitely useful if you forgot to turn off your headlights or something draining your car’s battery.

I always feel I need the dashboard camera to record while I am driving, just in case I get into accident due to reckless driving from other driver.

Four accessories for daily driving? Guess it depends on your environment but pretty much can settle for just two for normal daily driving;

  • dashcam
  • car keys :stuck_out_tongue:

If on a long journey however (and these are normally kept in the car anyhow)

  • emergency breakdown kit (high vis’ vest, warning triangle etc)
  • Anker LC40 in glove compartment
  • Anker PowerDrive+ 3 port

Might someday add the jump starter to the list (if it comes to the UK :wink:)

I always carry my knife whether in the car or not. It’s saved me a few times I was in a dire emergency
