    3.3 Frequently Asked Questions About the Battery • The CamView IP Pro, Pro-C, and Pro+ use a lithium-ion polymer battery, which does not have a memory effect. Users can recharge the battery whenever they want.

  • Page 15: Lanyard

    • The battery can also be charged using a POE switch or other POE power sources that meet the 802.3af / 802.3at standard.
