Frequently asked questions and answers
1. How do you charge the gimbal?
Beholder EC1 can be charged in two ways: using the built-in battery holder micro USB or using a
separate authorized dedicated charger (recommended) such as the ikan ICH-SC4.
Charging using the battery holder:
– Remove the battery cap cover on the bottom of the handle.
– Take the battery holder out.
– Connect the power cable to the Micro USB.
– Connect the other cable end to power supply.
Charging using a dedicated charger:
– Buy an authorized smart charger.
– Release the battery holder.
– Take out the batteries and charge with fast charger.
TIP
Fully charged 18650 batteries measure 4.21V through a volt meter.
2. After mounting the quick release plate, sliding it into the stabilizer seems difficult. How do you
fix this?
Release the 1/4 screw about two turns and then insert to the gimbal QR base.
TIP
After balancing the camera, mark the position with a pen. This will help you find the balance
faster the next time you mount the same camera and lens.
3. After balancing the camera, adjusting the camera's center of gravity, and tightening the
screws, the camera is still wobbly and unstable. Why?
You need to put the rubber stickers onto the quick release plate and then put the camera back on.
4. Why is my battery holder not charging?
When using the battery holder as a charger, the USB power supply must meet the minimum
requirements. The common USB port may not supply enough power to charge the batteries. A USB
adapter rated at a minimum of 2.5A/12.5W or more may be needed. You can also purchase the Beholder
multi-function intelligent charger.
