Sentry mode only records when charging.

So my sentry mode has never worked perfectly from ownership, it would always record in large file types and minutes.

It will only start recording once i use the local charger in town, and for no reason, it will record an entire 58:00 minute file, triggered by something randomly.
It will not record any more video until that old file is deleted. I am using the OEM USB silver device. I have reformatted it inside the CT screen many times.

It will even continue to record while I drive, access to all camera data is saved, which looks cool as hell but it will just record for almost an hour.

I have enabled disabled sentry in the app and in the car many times, I have it not set to sentry at home. Any ideas for a fix? Or how can i test the system, what will set off sentry mode recording?
