Anyone know what is the expected charged life of Contour GPS batteriesshould be filming in 1080p & quality is set to high in say 10-30 degrees F?
I'm seeing maybe 30-45 minutes with mine.
After a full charge using Contour connect view on my phone, battery meter always says 90 % full.
I have 3 batteries & all act the same.
Friends with Go Pro's seem to film all day (4+hrs) on one battery.
Other than the lack of battery life, i love the camera. Just got Contour's new 360 helmet mount works great, very flexible for mounting & filming options & is rock solid too.

I bought the bigger mAH batteries Quantity 3 for under $20.

Don't know why but battery life is not consistant.

I noticed very short battery life on mine last year also. I turned off the GPS and got much better results. I kinda wish I would have just got the one without GPS. Cool feature but if you don't use it......
