GoPro HERO11 Black Mini User Manual Battery Information

Your camera and battery are integrated. You cannot remove the battery from the camera. The battery is non-serviceable. Contact GoPro Customer Service for all battery related issues.

MAXIMIZING BATTERY LIFE

The battery icon displayed in the camera status screen blinks and shows a low battery message when the battery drops below 10%. If the battery reaches 0% while recording, the camera saves the file and powers off.

Here are some things you can do to maximize battery life:

• Use the Easy Controls' Extended Battery or Longest Battery mode.

• Switch to lower frame rates and resolutions using Pro Controls.

RECORDING WHEN PLUGGED INTO A POWER SOURCE

You can use the USB-C cable that came with your camera to record while your camera is plugged in to a USB-charging adapter or other external power source. This is perfect for capturing long videos and time lapse events.

Be careful not to touch the area near the SD card slot when recording. Disturbing the SD card could interrupt or stop the recording. Your camera will let you know if this happens. Your content will not be damaged or lost as a result of this disturbance, but you may need to restart your camera to continue.

Heads Up: Even though your camera is charging, the battery will not charge during recording. It will start charging when you stop recording. You cannot record while your camera is plugged into a computer.

Heads Up: Because the door is open, your camera is not waterproof when charging.

🚧

WARNING: Using a non-GoPro wall charger or power cable could damage your camera battery and could lead to fire or leakage. With the exception of the GoPro Supercharger, only use chargers marked Output 5V 1A. If you don’t know your charger’s voltage and current, use the included USB-C cable to charge your camera with a computer.

BATTERY STORAGE + HANDLING

Your GoPro is full of sensitive components, including the battery. Avoid exposing your camera to very hot or cold temperatures. Extreme temperatures may temporarily shorten battery life or cause your camera to temporarily stop working properly. Avoid dramatic temperature or humidity changes, as condensation may form on or within the camera.

Do not dry your camera with an external heat source such as a microwave oven or a hair dryer. Damage to the camera or battery caused by contact with liquid inside the camera is not covered under the warranty.

Do not make any unauthorized alterations to your camera. Doing so may compromise safety, regulatory compliance, and performance, and may void the warranty.

Heads Up: Batteries have reduced capacity in cold weather. Maximize battery life in cold conditions by keeping your camera in a warm place before use.

📘

PRO TIP: Fully charge your camera before storing it away to help maximize battery life.

🚧

WARNING: Do not drop, disassemble, open, crush, bend, deform, puncture, shred, microwave, incinerate, or paint your camera or battery. Do not insert foreign objects into any opening on the camera, such as the USB-C port. Do not use your camera if it’s been damaged—for example, if cracked, punctured, or harmed by water. Disassembling or puncturing the integrated battery can cause an explosion or fire.

BATTERY DISPOSAL

Most rechargeable lithium-ion batteries are classified as non-hazardous waste and are safe for disposal in the normal municipal waste stream. Many regions require battery recycling. Check your local laws to make sure that you can dispose of your camera and its battery in your regular trash.

Lithium-ion batteries, however, do contain recyclable materials and are accepted for recycling by the Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation’s (RBRC) Battery Recycling Program. We encourage you to visit Call2Recycle at call2recycle.org or call 1-800-BATTERY in North America to find a convenient recycling location.

Never dispose of a battery in a fire because it may explode.
