If for some reason you want to record lengthy videos with superb quality, having an external battery charger ready at all times is the solution. Some people like to record short videos with excellent quality, and others need to record lengthy videos with medium or low video quality. Make sure to know the limits of your camera, but also what you want. Other factors include having your camera and batteries exposed to cold temperatures for a long time, using old or cheap batteries, or using the smartphone app at all times.Īnother essential thing to have in mind is that the higher the video's quality, the shorter the battery will last. You won't always need to have voice control, Wi-Fi, GPS, etc., turned on, so be mindful about such things. The biggest battery draining issue is having too many features turned on. Of course, battery health decays overtime. Most cameras have a battery that will last at least 2 hours. Your battery life depends on what GoPro camera you own. We suggest that all types of video makers should always have a spare GoPro rechargeable battery. These handy GoPro accessories can boost the battery charging speed from 20% to 70%. GoPro supercharger and GoPro Dual battery charger aren't necessary for everyone, but they can be quite useful even if you aren't a professional.

All GoPro cameras come with a charger that is best compatible with the camera, but if by any chance your charger isn’t working you can order one from their official website.

You can always recharge your GoPro with a USB cable connected to your computer, phone charger, power bank, etc. Most of the cameras come with a USB wall charger that outputs 5V and 1A newer versions come with 5V and 2A wall charger.
