Similarly, when your battery is not installed on

, you can check its charge level at any

time by pressing its power button:

1 steady LED lights up:

battery is between 0 and 25% charged;

2 steady LEDs light up:

battery is between 25 and 50% charged;

3 steady LEDs light up:

battery is between 50 and 75% charged;

4 steady LEDs light up:

battery is between 75 and 100% charged.

Finally, the same logic applies when the smart LiPo battery is installed on the drone and
when

is powered on. The number of steady LEDs enables you to estimate your

remaining flying time:

1 steady LED is lit up:

less than 6 minutes flying time remaining;

2 steady LEDs are lit up:

between 6 and 12 minutes flying time remaining;

3 steady LEDs are lit up:

between 12 and 18 minutes flying time remaining;

4 steady LEDs are lit up:

between 18 and 25 minutes flying time remaining.

Battery care and safety

As you can see,

’s smart LiPo battery is as high-tech as any other element of your

flying 4K HDR camera.

It even features a wintering mode, designed to increase its durability and facilitate its care.
Ideally, when not in use for a prolonged period, batteries should be stored half-charged.
When not in use for 10 days,

’s smart battery discharges itself, if required, to 65%

charge, over a 48h period. In other words, after a maximum of 12 days without use, this
smart battery enters hibernation with a charge level which never exceeds 65%. If you leave
your

battery for 12 days, you will find out its power button does not activate the

charge level LED indicators. The battery needs to be charged for at least a few seconds to
exit the wintering mode and start operating as described in the earlier paragraphs: this
behavior preserves the battery over time and guarantees 300 charge cycles.

However, like all other LiPo batteries,

’s smart battery must be handled, transported

and stored with care:

never let an unattended battery overcharge;

never expose a battery to extreme temperatures, neither hot, nor cold;

never charge a battery which is still warm from use;

never use or recharge a damaged or swollen battery;

always store your battery in a dry, ventilated place, at a temperature close to 20°C;

always carry your battery in a fire-retardant bag or case (unless it is installed on

: it can then be transported with the drone, inside its carrying case).
