GoPro batteries will typically last 1.5 to 2 hours. Here is the full summary for each model. Can I Record While Charging My GoPro? The type of charging cable you need for your GoPro depends upon which model you’re using. Throughout its models, GoPro has adopted 3 types of charging cables:

Charge via computer: You can plug your GoPro into your computer USB port to charge it. It’s best to plug directly into your computer, avoiding USB hubs (unless they are powered with AC). Make sure that your USB port is powered when your computer off. Here’s how to change your USB port power settings in Device Manager (Windows). Extra Batteries: Because GoPro batteries don’t last a super long time, it’s a good idea to own at least two. You can choose from either GoPro or another brand. We haven’t seen much difference in quality between brands – they all seem good. And the off-brand batteries are much cheaper.Watch for light to indicate charging: Watch for red LED light to indicate charging (in-camera). The red light will turn off to indicate charging is complete. If charging with an external charger, the indicator light color will vary. What HDMI cable do I need for my GoPro camera? Every GoPro camera requires a Micro HDMI to HDMI cable. Turn off your GoPro: This includes turning off voice activation. This will allow your camera to recharge much faster. Each battery slot has its own LED indicator for charging status. When the slot's LED is orange, it means the battery is still charging. Once the LED is green, the battery is charged. This can take around two to four hours but can be 13% faster for Enduro batteries.

Some GoPro models include an HDMI-out port, which you can use for sending the video signal out directly from the camera to an HD TV or to a computer for using a GoPro as a webcam. The specific models are: A few months ago, I built a custom desktop. It came with seven USB-A and one USB-C port. Macbooks charge via USB-C ports, as do new iPhone chargers. To properly charge your GoPro, you need a port with 5V 2A output. This is true for all models since the Hero5. For faster charging, choose an adapter/charger with 5V 3A.There are 4 ways to charge your GoPro without a charger. Each method requires that you have your USB cable. You can use a wall adapter, power bank, computer, or USB outlet in a car. 2. Charge GoPro Battery With External Charger I’ve previously written up a guide to charging GoPro cameras.
