MAXIMISING BATTERY LIFE
Your HERO7 White has a built-in battery that can’t be removed. You’llget
a low battery message on the touch screen when the battery charge
drops below 10%.
If the charge runs out (or your SD card runs out of space) while recording
video, your camera will stop recording, save the video and turn itself o.
Here are some things you can do to maximise battery life:
• Turn o Wireless Connections
• Use the following settings:
• QuikCapture (page 20)
• Auto Power O (page 48)
• Touch Screen (page 50)
RECORDING WHILE PLUGGED INTO A POWER SOURCE
You can use the USB-C cable that came with your camera to shoot
videosand photos while your camera is plugged in to a USB-charging
adaptor, the GoPro Supercharger, another GoPro charger or the GoPro
Portable Power Pack. This is perfect for capturing long videos and time
lapse events.
Even though your camera is plugged in, the battery will not charge
duringrecording. It will start charging when you stop recording.
Youcannot record while charging with a computer.
Heads Up: Because the door is open, your camera is not waterproof
whencharging.
PRO TIP: Fully charge your camera before storing it away to help maximise
battery life.
