How To Charge A GoPro Camera (2 Ways) – SlashGear

Buying a separate GoPro charging device is considered ideal because not only does it achieve a full charge faster, but if you own multiple batteries, you can still use your camera while your backups are charging. GoPro offers several official battery chargers:

Using one of the options above, here’s how you can charge your GoPro camera’s battery:

1. Release the battery compartment door of your GoPro.
2. Remove the battery by yanking gently on the plastic attachment.
3. Insert the battery into the battery charger slot. Make sure that it is properly seated.
4. Plug the charger into a wall socket or a computer port.

Each battery slot has its own LED indicator for charging status. When the slot’s LED is orange, it means the battery is still charging. Once the LED is green, the battery is charged. This can take around two to four hours but can be 13% faster for Enduro batteries.

Amazon has several third-party GoPro battery chargers that are affordable, such as the MAXCAM Power Triple Battery Chargers for GoPro HERO11/HERO10/HERO9 or GoPro HERO8 Black / HERO7 Black / HERO6 Black / HERO5 Black, both only $15.99. Do note that when using non-GoPro brand accessories with official GoPro products, optimal results are not always guaranteed.
