How to Charge The Battery
Connect the provided power adapter to the unit. The "Yellow" LED will be on if the battery is
charging. Please fully charge for 7~8 hours. (Please charge for 10 hours when you charge
the battery for the first time.) With the optional cradle, the charging time is around 3 hours and
the green LED will be on. The battery, after fully charged, can last for 6.5 hours at least under
continuous recording. However, the battery power will be dramatically reduced when recording
with IR LED. Under motion activation or power saving mode, Motion Activated Black Box can
last for longer.
* NOTE: Under low temperature conditions, the battery will have a shorter life than normal.
* NOTE: Please use the bundled power adapter only. Damage which is caused by other power
adapter will be beyond warranty.
* NOTE: For better performance it is recommended to charge the battery once every 3 weeks.
* NOTE: please re-charge the battery to full when receiving SC1720.
