AA batteries were chosen because they are the most common battery type,
and are readily available almost anywhere in the world.
The amount of recording time you can get from a set of batteries depends on
several factors:
• the type of batteries you use
• the internal settings of the POV.1 (such as video resolution)
• the external environment (operating temperature can affect battery life)
On average a set of standard alkaline batteries should last about 4-5 hours
and lithium ion batteries can last up to 10 hours.
If you want to have a lower-cost and more environmentally friendly solution
you can use rechargeable batteries.
WARNING: Do not mix old and new batteries. Do not mix alkaline,
standard (carbon zinc), lithium ion or rechargeable (nickel cadmium)
batteries. Dispose of used batteries responsibly.
Powering the Remote Control
The wireless remote control unit uses an A27 12 volt battery, which is
included with the unit and pre-installed.
If you need to replace the battery in the wireless remote control:
1. Place the remote unit on a flat surface with the buttons facing up.
2. Unscrew the four small Phillips screws in each corner and lift the cover
from the remote. Take care to protect the inside of the remote control unit
from dust and moisture while the cover is removed.
3. After changing the battery, replace the cover, tightening the four screws
uniformly to create even pressure against the seal.
