Dash Cam Install

Hi all,

I have purchased a Pruveeo Dash Cam and cable to hard wire in to the fuse box with a piggy back adapter. The problem I am having is that I wanted to piggy back on to a fuse which cuts out when you turn off the ignition in order for the camera to turn off and not drain the battery. However, every fuse I have tried always sends power to the dash cam and therefore it doesnt turn off when I get out of the car. Any ideas?

Thnks

I hooked up some gauges via a piggy back and just used a tester to figure out which fuse was an "accessory" and what was a battery always on.
