HOW TO CHARGE THE BATTERY:
Connect the USB-C cable to the USB-C port. The
battery indicator blinks while charging and turns solid
when full. It takes 2 hours to charge from empty, but
for a quick turnaround between dives, the flash
trigger can be charged within a shorter amount of
time to a lower battery level that will still provide
shooting time.
NOTE: High-voltage USB-C cables and high-amp
chargers are not compatible with the trigger, please
use the included USB-C cable.
HOW TO CHECK THE BATTERY POWER LEVEL:
Press the battery check button to see the current
power level. It will blink from 1 to 5 times to indicate
battery level, with 5 times being the maximum
battery level and 1 being 20% or less battery
remaining.
The trigger can be in active mode for 13 continuous
hours of shooting. The trigger will go to standby to
save power when the camera goes to sleep or is
turned off to save battery power. This way, the
trigger can be installed and sealed in the housing
the night before and still have plenty of battery
power for multiple days of shooting. When opening
up the housing to change the camera battery or
swap memory cards, it is a good time to check the
flash trigger's battery power level.
