Battery Charging Guidance
This section outlines guidance for charging batteries and correct
operation to maximise battery life.
Usage of the equipment outside of the guidelines may result in shortened
battery life, or battery failure.
A failing battery can be identified by its failure to hold charge, or by signs
of swelling - this can be seen by closely examining the camera case
without having to open it.
In either scenario, remove the battery from the device and contact
support at https://illustracameras.com/technical-support/. Do not use or
charge the device.
Battery Lifespan
Rechargeable Lithium-Ion batteries have a rated lifespan of 500 full
charge and discharge cycles. With age, batteries will gradually lose their
capacity to hold a charge. This loss of capacity (aging) is irreversible. As
the battery loses capacity, the length of time it will power your device (run
time) decreases. Additionally, lithium-ion batteries continue to slowly
discharge (self-discharge) when not in use or while in storage. It is
advised that you routinely check the battery's charge status. The device
should be recharged regularly to maintain the internal chemistry of the
battery.
Charging Guidance
• DO charge the battery in an environment that is below 25°C. Charging
above this temperature range may harm the performance of the
battery or reduce the battery's life expectancy.
• DO recharge a depleted battery as soon as reasonably possible. If
the camera is operated until it shuts down due to low battery, it
should ideally be recharged within a day.
Charging Guidance (continued)
• DO remove the camera from the charger if it remains unused for
more than 1 week. If the camera remains unused for a long period of
time, it should be left off the charger and its charge should be topped
up every 3 months by charging for 1 hour.
• DO replace the battery only with a replacement supplied by an
approved reseller.
• DO dispose of used batteries according to local law and regulations
applicable to Li-Ion batteries.
• DO apply camera updates to the latest firmware revision regularly.
This will ensure it has the latest available battery-protection features.
You can obtain information on firmware releases from your account
manager.
• DO NOT expose the camera or battery to temperatures above or
below those listed on the datasheet.
• DO NOT leave the camera in direct sunlight, especially behind glass
in a car or a similar environment.
• DO NOT attempt to charge the camera while it is operational. An
operational camera is defined as a camera that is recording and/or
live streaming.
• DO NOT leave the camera docked and charging for longer than 1
week. If the camera is expected to be unused for more than 1 week,
it should be removed from the charger and kept in the following state:
i. Powered off
ii. Medium amount of charge
iii. In a temperate environment, ideally at around 20°C
