What's the best fuse to Tap a Dashcam to?

So I Plan to Hardwire a Dash Camera to my 2005 Dodge Grand Caravan SXT.

After searching online, researching the fuse box location, I still can't find a good fuse to use a "Add a fuse" kit on. Do you guys have any suggestions on what fuse I should tap into?

Extra things:

Dashcam I'm using

Add a Fuse/ Circuit wire Kit

Dash Camera Vehicle Hard Wire Kit

Hi,

Is there a fuse for the radio or the cigarette lighter perhaps, (maybe they are the same fuse)?

They both usually work with the ignition key in the accessories position, so the engine doesn't have to be running (or the ignition key in the on position) to have power available through the fuse.

Just a thought

I don't exactly know if this is the right fuse, but is it the fuse called RDO/ IP Ignition?

Hi,

I'm also not sure. The way to find out is to remove it and see if the radio still works with the key in the accessories position. If not then that is its' fuse, assuming that the radio does work with the key in that position and not works regardless if the key is in or not.
