Your HERO camera, battery, and housing are integrated. You cannot
remove the camera from the housing, or remove the battery from
the camera.
The battery icon displayed in the camera status screen blinks
when the battery drops below 10%. If the battery reaches 0% while
recording, the camera saves the file and powers off.
MAXIMIZING BATTERY LIFE
Extreme cold temperatures can decrease battery life. To maximize
battery life in cold conditions, keep the camera in a warm place prior
to use.
PRO TIP: QuikCapture helps maximize battery life. For details, see
