GoPro Batteries vs 3rd Party... results are shocking!

[@CarstenBechmann]

Could it be the fact that the telesin batteries are rounded, that they let out some of the heat from the camera?

[@cash2.0]

I had bad results using Telesin 9/10 batteries in my GoPro 11. They worked for a short time then one-by-one the camera would shut down after only a few minutes of recording. Out of 5 Telesin batteries 4 have done this. I've used other brands with no issues. Needless to say, I will not be buying them again. Update: I contacted Telesin who replied they were sorry I had problems with their product but they were not willing to do anything about it. Their junky charger broke too. I will never buy anything electrical from them again.

[@budsatawny]

Should have tested on a mount, sitting on a flat surface allows no airflow.

[@jaco_oosthuizen]

The standard GoPro batteries really sucks. The Hero 10 should have been sold with the Enduro battery from the start, in my opinion.

[@tbounds4812]

i reckon go pro is a bit of a joke and this is coming from someone who exclusively uses gopro 10 the software can be massively improved it lags and sometimes it randomly doesn't want to connect to my phone and although i've been sweet lots of people complain of over heating issues but also fucking battery life is abysmal i wish they would increase the size of the camera to accommodate a bigger battery i can't concentrate on my action sports properly when im worrying about battery!

[@nicksangetta8874]

GoPro Enduro battery is the best for me. Hands down. I can get about 1 hour and 15 minutes out of one Enduro battery. Plus they work in freezing cold weather. The regular GoPro battery lasts maybe 1/3 that long and fails repeatedly in weather below 50 degrees. They are terrible to be honest.. Ive had the blue Telesin batterys as well and my GoPro doesnt even recognize them anymore. I had to throw them away. In my book, Gopro Enduros are the answer. I have 3 and could not be happier with how they perform.

[@enhidri160]

On battery tests, if you want to avoid overheating, you should consider having the battery door closed, but the gopro in a pool. The bettery door being closed is usually how I and (many others) do it. This should let the gopro cool down and get the full battery test in without an overheat.

[@bengvideos572]

[@JRoss707]

How often in real life are you filming with your battery door open though, realistically? This is going to give you a false positive performance.

[@Timbo_Slice13]

My interest in the enduro battery is that it performs better in colder temps. I have a snowboard trip coming up and I’m trying to decide whether it’s worth buying an enduro battery or just an extra third party battery

[@MrBlackReviews]

Thank you for your comment as you seen in my video that the Telesin battery did better over all but this was in a controlled environment out in the colder temperatures I am not quite sure but is you do decide to go with Telesin there is a link in the comments of the video. Glad you enjoyed my video let me know how it goes after your trip.

[@ryanralph1189]

The Enduro battery is much better in colder temps. I use it riding snowmobiles and it performs way better than a standard GoPro battery.

[@Blloxt]

Telesin batteries don’t inflate as mush as go pro original ones

[@datapro007]

How long do the batteries last in 4k 24fps for example? Under this circumstance, the Gopro doesn't overheat.

[@DanGoodchild]

While it's normally good practice to compare things under the same conditions, I don't think it's fair to compare the Enduro battery to the others. The Enduro is specifically meant for different environmental conditions. I suspect the overheating issues have to do with current drain. I suggest repeating the test (without the Enduro) at higher and lower resolutions and frame rates. My hypothesis is that at lower settings, the GoPro battery will outperform the Telesin. The GoPro battery had more power remaining in your test but couldn't make full use of it because of heat; if the camera isn't working as hard the GoPro battery shouldn't overheat as quickly, allowing it to run out. I'd be very interested to know how they perform at maximum settings though. It seems like the Telesin would win the day there.

[@kaltask1]

Also he is blocking the bottom of the camera, so it does not dissipate heat as much as it could. Telesin battery does have some gap there due to the shape, not sure if that helped. Still even on normal situations you would have your gopro on a stick. Other thing too is that usually gopro is used outside where there is some air currents going around the camera. People hardly use them stationary + max vid recording, but for timelapse yes, but it heats the camera less than video.

[@shawnhansen1669]

good point.. maybe repeat the test with the gopro on a stick with a fan..

[@johnwilliamsscuba6487]

I use the Enduro in my 10, here is my results, none scientific, I do one 45 minute dive the blue battery is at 14%, with the White Gopro battery I can go 3 45 minute dives and still have power. Yes I use Quick Capture.

[@10fantic]

Do another test with a fan to keep it cool. In real life, it’s more likely the camera will get some air and help it.

[@wingandhog]

I have several Telesin products. They are excellent. But for GoPro, I will stick with the Enduro batteries. I’m not saying Telesin products are knock off cheap because they are not, but I learned my lesson going with non-GoPro branded batteries. I can’t tell you how many times I lost some great footage due to poor battery performance using cheap Amazon bought batteries. Never again

[@MrBlackReviews]

Thanks for sharing

[@BryanMiraflor]

Nah don’t buy these telesin batteries. I’ve been trying to use the yellow batteries with my GoPro 11 and it gives a “cold battery warning” on the GoPro. Then the battery only shows as 1% full, and the GoPro shuts off the screen when recording. There’s currently no fix for it either. Very annoying.

[@SteveLewisFitness]

I used Telesin batteries on my GoPro 6. I’ve just bought my 11 so I’m excited to see what’s the best. Not really a good test. Although the conditions were the same for all 3 batteries, you had it on 4K 60fps in activity mode. That’s why it overheated. (I know you know this) but new people to GoPro will think batteries only last 30-40 mins. I went out for a run in highest quality/Pro controls, 1080 50fps with horizon lock/smooth and enduro battery lasted 1.5hours

[@dfreek]

Is telesin batteries are good

[@geog8964]

I am using the two Gopro batteries came with Hero 9. They have been swollen to a point that I have difficulties inserting them into my gopro. I got an extra gopro battery with the official charger last year and it has started to swell. I don't use the camera very often, probably once every two two three weeks. I have decided to give Telesin batteries a try.

[@Meecte]

Same, it's frustrating. I don't even use the GoPro consistently because of the batteries. If all my batteries swell up, what's the point of having an action cam if they are so delicate and can't be used because they heat up so quickly?

[@joseluisruiz3789]

Interesting, what is the rounded edge design is to help dissipate heat from the battery compartment? Thats just a thought though.

[@zpiggekowalski4791]

I film with the GoP 8 mostly in Thailand. The camera never stopped from overheating but the org. batteries swelled so much that the back piece holding the small plastic tongue was torn off when taking out the batt. Had to knock out the battery. Scary! Telesin on the other hand works perfectly OK

[@MrBlackReviews]

[@MotoMario1]

I'm filming in 5.3K 60FPS with the Hero 10. Using one original battery, a pack of three called "AHDBT-901" with 1800mAh each (blue with label that says: "BATTERY PACK 9 For GoPro") and two Enduro batteries. I've tested them inside a fridge with a small usb fan infront of it to overcome the heat issues. At the beginning of the test the Hero 10 and the battery are at room temperature. My results: Original GoPro battery: 40 min "AHDBT-901": -------------- 32 min Enduro: ----------------------- 52 min (GoPro states the runtime with 56 min in 5.3K 60fps at 14°F/-10°C and 60min at 77°F/25°C)

Are they the same with the GoPro hero Black 9

[@aSecularAge]

GoPro put out a statement about all these battery tests KZbinrs are doing. They said that you should have them mounted on something instead of laying it flat because the mount is designed for heat dissipation. However, the battery door being opened likely makes up for that, but it's not quite a real world test. Cheers

[@susanpompilio6484]

What did GoPro say about the swelling of their own batteries.. this is very concerning.

[@dogwapofthebarnowlbakery3655]

Wish you would have done a test with a fan or in a cool location to test battery life and not just how fast they overheated. I use my gopro mounted on the front of a racing sailboat, so overheating isn't an issue. But total batter life is.

[@longhoang18]

Is it possible that the Telesin battery has a curved part to dissipate heat?

[@michaelmourek3879]

When batteries are pushed to their limits (be it being close to empty or fully charged, or charging at high speeds) they get extra hot, that's likely why it overheated right when it was about to run out.

[@roninr8199]

Does go pro doesn't detect that battery is fully charged and then cut off supply? One of the stores in my country stated that main reason for go pro batteries to swell is due to over charging

[@nullfield1126]

@@roninr8199 I believe what they mean is that due to GoPro caring more about you not being frustrated with your battery being on 50% when you want to use it, rather than you getting the best possible lifetime for your battery, they don't include a "storage mode" on their chargers (which discharges/charges the battery to 50%, at which it ages a LOT slower than on percentages father away, like 100%). This means that GoPro batteries are kept on the shelf at 100% charge for way longer than they should, which makes them age faster and bloat.

i did the same kind of test, but when i asked gopro, they said youre not doing justice by doing the wrong testing, because gopro is an action cam and meant for outdoors, mooving time and real action tests, so overheating is very natural, the two mount flaps that close, one is a speaker, the other is basically kind of a ventilation for the chip inside.

[@OverlordQ]

Okay, now explain the solution when you're using the waterproof housing.

[@mmadfingers]

@@OverlordQ it's simple The water acts as a coolant The camera heats up the gopro housing, the water absorbs the heat Just like in our Indian homes, the milk utensil is kept in water and when you touch the water, all the heat, the water absorbs So underwater there will be no overheating issues with or without gopro housing Using the gopro housing outside water is useless anyways

If you really want to see how long either battery will last vs the other set the resolution to 1080/30 or something so the camera or battery doesn’t overheat. 4k 60 is going to cause more heat across the board from the sensor to the battery.
