The main purposes of a hardwire kit are:

Constant power supply: Keeps the dashcam running even when the car is off, which is useful for parking mode.

Battery protection: Many kits feature an automatic shutoff function to prevent the car battery from draining completely.

Clean installation: Helps hide the wires and maintain a tidier appearance in the vehicle.
