GoPros have never had particularly good battery life. So having spare batteries on hand, along with an external charger, can help you keep shooting.
Here's a roundup of some options for spare batteries and battery chargers for the GoPro HERO 4 Silver and Black editions.
Practical action cam help, tips, and troubleshooting.
My name is David Coleman, and this is my site.
I take photos for a living. Seven continents. Dozens of countries. Up mountains. Under water. And a bunch of places in between. I'm based in Washington DC.
I've been shooting with GoPros since the HERO2 and have personally owned nearly every model since then. I find them particularly interesting as go-anywhere cameras, and there's nearly always one in my camera bag when I head out on my travels.
All posts and reviews on this site are written by me. And I only review gear with which I have personal hands-on experience. More about me.
