This summer I’ll plan it better (I hope ) Last summer, as I was going over the Alps, my Mini 0806 wasn’t recording (I didn’t know this as I was going over at the time), one of the SJ4000 I had stuck to the side window didn’t record anything as I was climing the Alps, I must not have pressed the record button down enough and the second SJ400 I stuck on the inside back window facing forward fell off half way up the Alps, Thank you for that information Nigel, its something to think about, I plan on taking 3 action cameras with me on holiday this coming summer, as well as other uses, plan on using them on my car as I go over the Alps, at other times for 99% of the time one action camera will be more than enough

Thankyou beforehand, I appreciate all people with so much knowledge on the forum. I hope someone here can help my out and point me to someplace to buy it in Europe so I come ut with a good buy of charger + battery.Īs I understand the SJCAM batteries are ok?Īlso if someone have some idea about a good powerbank. My problem is that my knowledge about batteries are very limited. So now I wait for answer from Gearbest if this is ok for them.īut anyway I need extra batteries and a powerbank and have decided to buy it from some supplier in Europe instead to avoid any embargo limits. So i decided to exchange the batteries and powerbank for some other items, a chest mount and some another stuff. It seems like they have problem to ship them to Sweden, where I am. This items is the extra battery and a powerbank. When I asked Gearbest what was the reason about the long processing state, I got the answer 'The items 130521801 & 138519101 you ordered are embargo products of shipping,this leads to the delay of your order.' I wait to get it since I have read so much about it here on the forum.īut the order is still in 'processing' state. Hi, I have ordered the Git2 from Gearbest 26 february. But batteries are batteries, they all fundamentally work the same. Now I have no sjcams to test or review so can't comment directly there. As already shown, decrease current draw to really low and the capacity is there within acceptable error margin. Around 10%-15% lower tested capacity vs rating is normal under 'normal user load'. Seems a few here have some rc background as do I (haven't played with rc in a few years though, gave it up for cycling) but I test li-ion cells and all that doing bike light product testing and reviews. Amd current battery tech limits what that can be. Or simply a few dont realize how little the capacity rating matters in this case. I could go on and on, but jokiin could have it right. The higher the load, the less capacity is used because of voltage sag under load. Once voltage hits a certain point, the battery is 'dead' and needs recharge. Load on the battery also greatly effects useable capacity as battery voltage is what's monitored. And brand new batteries are always a bit low on their first couple of cycles. Rated capacity and useable are 2 different things. This whole debate comes down to what said. To be quite honest this whole debate about how big batteries are seems to be a beat up started by a competitor (I'll leave you to work out who that would be) in an attempt to discredit them but to me it just seems like the competitor is clutching at straws in an attempt to try and make their own product look better, it's not working though, if they want their product to look better they should look at making better products and give up on the stupid marketing stunts I don't get too involved in battery related stuff as we don't use batteries but I think you will find that the ratings stated are total cell capacity which is always going to be a larger number than how much of that is usable capacity by the device, by design these batteries can't go down to zero and there is always a percentage of cell that needs to remain with some level of charge or the battery simply won't work again, does that mean that the battery does not contain the right amount of material as stated on the packaging, no it does not
