User Guide for the Mobius2 ActionCam
Description
The above picture shows the arrangement of the user operating features.
On the bottom of the case there are 4 screw holes which can be used to attach a
copper base for a tripod mount. These screw holes are part of the heatsink and can
become very hot during usage. Likewise, the copper base will become hot. This is
normal. You should never leave the camera turned on in extreme heat without proper
cooling - for example in a car parked in the baking sun. If you wish to use the camera
in very hot conditions you should ensure the camera is adequately cooled, for
example by directing cool air onto the camera or using a ventilator to dissipate the
heat away from the camera. High temperatures will also damage the internal LiPo
battery. If you use your camera in very hot conditions with external power, for
example as a dashcam, you should consider replacing the battery with a Super
Capacitor.
►This manual does not cover replacing the internal battery or lens.
►This manual assumes the camera is loaded with the latest firmware available at the
time of writing. Functionality may vary with earlier or later firmware versions.
Cards
You should always use micro SDHC or Micro SDXC cards with a class rating of 10 or
above. The cards must be formatted as FAT32 (see below). Currently, all cards with
a capacity up to 200GB are supported
