Never let me down.
Check last week's thread on this. In short, read the reviews on Amazon. They are not good. I would stay away.
Second, do not waste your money on a lithium jump starter. Again, check the reviews - don't just look at the star rating, but read them. They fail quickly and often dangerously. NOCOs are especially notorious for the charging circuitry blowing itself up and not working anymore only a few months after purchase. And that's the leading brand for the market... you want to carry a Chinese Taobao special lithium battery in your trunk all the time?
Finally, to answer your question, if the car's battery is totally dead, no, probably not reliably. The CVPI's starter draws around 200 amps. This battery will not be able to supply that reliably. The 600 peak amp rating is total marketing wank and means basically nothing. The 300 starting amp rating is only for 32° F or above for 5 seconds when the battery is brand new and fully charged. Your typical car battery is rated in cold cranking amps, which is measured at 0° F for 30 seconds. A CVPI's starter may only draw 200 amps, but most car batteries you find for the CVPI will be 500-1000 cold cranking amps.
I would look at one of these. Even the higher-spec Stanley units have bad reviews across the board.
Hope you got a jump. You should invest in one of these: http://www.amazon.com/Stanley-J309-300-Jump-Starter/dp/B001U04NCA/ref=pd_cp_hi_1
So - I charged two batteries in the field during some field work last week. One of those big 12V jump-start / tyre pump batteries with the 12V Mavic recharger can refill a Mavic battery in about an hour - you will need a larger capacity one to recharge more than once. But realistically - you need a generator.
Just so I get this straight, you want to put the dashcam inside your house or your car? It sounds like you want to put it inside the car but I'm just checking. Additionally, unless you angle it straight up, I'm not sure you'll get a good angle on the third floor balcony from the windshield of a car.
To answer your question, you could run the camera off a booster pack for cars if you have one. They're usually fairly large in capacity and have a cigarette lighter plug included. Something like this.
Some cameras just use a USB cable that plugs into a cigarette lighter adapter so you could also use a large battery bank and use it on motion detect like that. At that point though, I'm not sure if something like a cheap 1080p security camera like this one wouldn't do the same job. Just be careful with the battery bank if you live in a place where it gets really hot.
This is the one I got many moons ago and it has saved me so much headache.

Definitely something I'm looking into. I live in a REALLY remote place, and the nearest Canadian Tire is about 9 hours away =/.
I was looking at this one on amazon, what do you think?

I think this is it, although I bought it at a Napa and not online. http://www.amazon.com/Clore-ES5000-Booster-Portable-Battery/dp/B000JFHNQA
I bought this one first, and it died on me in a couple months. http://www.amazon.com/Stanley-J309-Peak-Jump-Starter/dp/B001U04NCA/
