GoPro Battery

Is there such a thing as a bigger battery that will record more than 2 hours rather than buying an additional cell to swap out or buying the adapter that looks like 2 batteries stuck together?

Looking for something that's going to do 3-4 hours in one cell...

Just buy another cell and chuck it in your pack. A spare is only £16.

Your only other option is the backpack!

JBA

Buy a Smatree charger and a couple of spare batteries.

I don't think you can get anything that will last 3-4 hours.

Doing a long race and was just hoping to leave the thing on the bike recording rather than having to change batteries. K guess the expansion pack or a second battery is the only option...

If the race is run under British Cycling rules then you wont be allowed to have a camera attached to yourself or your bike. Some non BC races also dont allow cameras so check with the organiser.

I guess you could hook it up to a mobile usb charger. I've got this and it is a handy bit of kit for charging on the go. Haven't tried filming and charging at the same time right enough. But yeah, I just carry a spare battery usually.

This http://www.wiggle.co.uk/gopro-hero-battery-bacpac/ but it will add weight pluses for a marathon best gets a chesty mount rather on your head.
Plus make sure you have the right size and type of micro sd card(Very important) and you have the settings right so all you have to worry about is starting it.
