Batteries

Your Scout Bi-Ocular camera is equipped with a sophisticated power
system that accommodates a wide variety of AA battery types. This
includes rechargeable and non-rechargeable batteries.
The camera is optimized for operation with the 2700 mAh
rechargeable NiMh batteries that were supplied with your camera. It
is recommended that you use these batteries in all but emergency
situations.
Note
Replacement batteries are available online from FLIR Commercial
Systems, Inc.
Battery Status Indicator–While the camera
is On, a battery status indicator is always
shown in the corner of the display image. This
indicator provides an estimation of the
remaining battery charge.
Note
If non-rechargable batteries are installed the battery indication
may not be accurate.
Using Non-Rechargeable Batteries –The Scout Bi-Ocular camera
allows Alkaline non-rechargeable batteries to be used. When non-
rechargeable batteries are installed, connecting the Hot Shoe to a
power source will power the camera from the power source and the
battery charging circuitry will be disabled.
Note
When using Alkaline batteries, operating battery life is reduced to
approximately 1.5 hours.
Low Battery Auto-Shutdown–When the batteries are almost fully
depleted the camera will automatically initiate a shutdown process.
