GoProRechargable Battery for HERO4

This is a genuine battery replacement... That is all that needs saying. It's recommended not to buy knock off batteries as they could damage your camera even though they may be much cheaper... It's not worth ruining your GoPro when you have spent so much money on it. I'm guessing it could also void your warranty.

Bought a spare battery to take with me when out working taking video's. Always handing to have a spare battery on your in case on runs out. What more can I say, it's a battery and does its job well.

Quick to charge and lasts the normal 90 mins whilst in operation. Sounds short but Hero 4s drink the juice because of the screen. Good product and I've bought 2 so I've also got spare power when needed.

Having managed to lose my beloved GoPro 3+ in the field (due to a failure of an attachment) I was a little annoyed to find that the GoPro 4 Silver (and GoPro 4 Black) uses different batteries. (My spares and the charger are now on eBay!) Still, I support product development, so that's not a complaint.Of course, I need replacement batteries for my GoPro 4 - in the past I have used a mixture of genuine GoPro batteries and third-party replacements, and have found no difference in performance (although I have been careful to check reviews carefully.) Despite this, I plumped for the security of a genuine replacement.I note that a few reviewers have thrown up doubts about whether they had received a genuine copy. This one, which was "Dispatched from and sold by Amazon" rather than "fulfilled by Amazon" or through a third party seller is definitely genuine. (At least, the packaging is identical to the ones in the shop, the serial numbers match, and the appearance / performance is identical to the one supplied with the camera.)It is, of course expensive. I know that there is R&D and rigorous testing to cover, but at £15.99 reduced from £19.99 it's still a wodge of cash. I'm happy with the performance, charging and battery life, and I can not distinguish between this and the original, so I'm happy enough for "I like it" - but "I love it"? Naah!

You’ll defo need another battery. Use go pro for scuba diving. Use up one per dive (1 hour underwater) depending on how much video you’re doing/if you switch camera off for some time.

Its an extra battery, not much i can really say but well worth buying to give you more time recording. Even more important if your recording in a cold enviroment as the batterys just dont last very long.

It's fortunate these batteries and small and relatively cheap because they don't last very long at all. It's often necessary to have several back-ups.When the WIFI function is in use I tend to get maximum 1 hour out of it.A notable issue, is that, if the battery runs completely dry - which they often do - then this damages the batteries ability to hold charge. Especially if you leave it empty for too long before recharging.But often when on shoots, or out for prolonged periods of time, it'll be a good day or 2 before you get to recharge the battery again. So once they have been drained out a few times and not recharged in good time, they last even less time.Can't be helped obviously with such a small and compact device that requires being on for long periods of time. But definitely worth carrying a powerbank to either recharge or actually power the device.

You can never have enough go pro batteries. I take at least we with me when I’m out with my go pro hero 4. Don’t bother trying out the fake ones just get the real ones you won’t be disappointed. Small battery doesn’t take long to charge at all. A must have for anyone that uses a go pro.
