If you're curious about the technical side, the reason the GoPro is turning off once you start recording is because the battery is so cold that it can only provide a tiny amount of current (due to how the chemistry reacts to the cold). As soon as the camera tries to draw more than a small amount of current, the voltage drops on the battery and the GoPro thinks it's flat. If it tried to stay running anyway, it might actually be able to continue recording, although it might also glitch and behave weirdly since the voltage might drop so far that the electronics no longer work as intended. I also wonder whether the battery might warm up if the camera kept going, and thus the voltage might actually rise during use, but I doubt the small heat generated by the battery could compete with the extreme cold.
Thanks man, appriciate the explaination. Im trying to decide wheather I need to buy 2 or 1 Enduro battery as I'm going skiing in the alps this winter.
I need this! Winter is my favourite season but batteries are always a struggle.
Really hope they make these batteries for the Hero 6/7/8
Good stuff
You should make the test at -30 when you keep the batteries warm in your pocket and put it in and start recording to see how long it would last.
When I record on my snowmobile I put my GoPro in the clear scuba dive case. Another snowmobile gentleman I know does the same but he wraps a hand warmer around it with a rubber band. He says it does quite well with the combined air temperature and wind chill. Perhaps the dive case doesn’t really work for you with the microphone but the hand warmer might be a nice idea when out in the elements. Of course I keep the GoPro as warm as possible when not in use, snowmobile storage spot, inside jacket, bottom of sleeping bag and gear loft of hot tent
Hand warmers can be a great hack! I usually keep it in my jacket chest pocket - but even then, I've had the regular battery fail on me when skiing. The Enduro battery has been doing a lot better.
@@JustinOutdoors how about a little ski video? After all your channel is Justin Outdoors not Justin Camping. Let’s see some outdoor action 😊
We do the same thing😂
I was trying to record with my GoPro on those cold days -38 and no luck neither the GoPro or battery worked
I had to use my iphone for all the filming
Even my Sony zve10 failed
This has been a real struggle for me - switched from GoPro to the Osmo Action for this exact reason and it works really well in below freezing temps. Haven't been to -30 though. GoPro always recommends keeping the battery warm but it's just not realistic to keep doing that when you're outside! They love using those ski shots in advertising though ;)
I'm pretty stoked even with the -20 performance. I was having troubles with the regular battery at -10 when it was stored inside my jacket chest pocket!
@@JustinOutdoors I got rid of my GP8 because it was so bad in cold weather. I'll see how the Osmo Action holds up - but maybe I'll go back to GP in the future. My dream is an action camera with f1.8 or f2.0 aperture. Maybe it's just a dream, but that would really help with low light performance.
@@KaneDoesOutdoors How's the Osmo Action holding up for you. I recently just got rid of my GP8 because it was useless when snowboarding. I'm debating if I should get GP10 or just buy from another brand all together.
@@KaneDoesOutdoors how was the osmo action man ? i am really curious with the result
I have a Hero 8 and had it out for an overnight in November at +5C. The battery went from about 67% down to 32% then to zero in less than 2 minutes. No warning. Just shut down.
I wish I could upgrade these new batteries would be nice!
I just bought a couple the other day. Heading to Northern Idaho in a couple weeks and we'll see how they work! That being said I just a did a video on how to keep all those battery operated electronics warm and charged without sticking them down yur shorts or sleeping with them all night. BTW if the camera was warm it probably would not shut down...
Надо было нажать кнопку с верху ( быстрая запись ). Гопро отключила бы все экраны и возможно поменяла алгоритмы записи видео - этого было достаточно для записи видео.
Ещё нужно было попробовать самое низкое разрешение, верь потребление энергии уменьшилось! Нужно повторить тест ) с ночевкой в -30 )))))
Thanks for the Test, brotha... I shoot a lot with the GoPro using regular batteries. I shot a few weeks ago in -19°C @1080/24 and it sucked the battery down in about 20 minutes. I may upgrade to the Enduro just for giggles!.. Thanks again for the review...
I was hiking in -15 degree Celsius this weekend. I have 4 normal and one enduro battery. The first normal battery lasted a little while, then I used the enduro and got some good time out of it but when it died, the other three normal batteries did nothing. I was able to use my iPhone for the rest of the video. I kept my unused batteries in an inside pocket to keep them warm unit I was ready to use them. but it didn't seem to matter. I am from Connecticut so we don't get as cold down here. I love the content you create! Thanks for making so many great videos!
When hiking in cold temperature, I just use my regular battery but had my powerbank connected once the go pro is on, I was able to record up to 3 hours.. im pretty sure it is not healthy for my battery but that is the only thing that works..
I would love to see longer videos like 30 plus minutes from start to finish of your trip. But if that something you do not want to do all good!
Yes would be great, or full movie length!
I've been curious about these batteries! Glad you did this test on them. I don't think I'll ever need it to go quite as cold as you (you're a beat, by the way...) but I am tired of my standard batteries failing in the cold.
Now I just wish I had a Hero 9 instead of a Hero 8 so I could use the Enduro batteries! 🤦♂
I've had the Enduro battery out since I filmed this and it has been working so much better than the standard battery for a lot of my activities! Fingers crossed on the new one for you!
I’ve got a hero 9 and unless you’re dealing with moderate cold temps, anything below -5 or -10 nukes my GoPro. Doesn’t look like the enduro will help the situation.
@@Evan_Le5 Ya, I haven't gone below 0F (-18C) this year, but at those temps my Hero 8 was basically useless. I kept the batteries in my inside pocket next to my chest and would have to take it out of the GoPro every time after I took a video. Let's just say I took a lot less video on those trips... 🤣
@@Evan_Le5 The Enduro battery should be good down to about -20C.
@@DoseofDirt it’s brutal! Was out skiing in -20, kept a battery warm and ready to pop in. I put it in right before going down the slope and hitting record. Got to the bottom and it had died after 20 seconds of me hitting record.
Useful video man - many thanks.
I'm thinking about getting GoPro 11 as a gift for coming New Year and test it outside after recording some time indoors. It could be down to -50°C in December or January in the region I live in. I've watched some reviews complaining about overheating in 5.3K 60fps with horizon lock, so it might be the right camera for me in winter.
Thanks for this! My DJI Action struggles with cold as well. I have to keep warming it up in my pocket.
What did you record this video on? Phone that you kept warm in your jacket prior to recording?
I recorded it on a mirrorless camera that I kept warm in my jacket. It was still struggling hard though.
Wow thanks for your video and testing the batteries, was contemplating on getting the GoPro11 for a trip where temps are -10-25C but looks like it may not record that long nor work!
Tried using my go pro for the first time up here on killington during a snowstorm, wouldn’t even turn on I was so disappointed
Old ones also did that if you put them in warm place for an hour they would still not boot up the gopro, you had to charge them couple seconds and then it booted up with 30% battery left or so. I am wondering that is it the same for enduro.
Great to see these companies taking colder weather enthusiasts more seriously. Below about -10 (down to about -30, where I tend to wimp out :) ) I keep my camera batteries in a bag around my neck, and swap them out as needed. I've been able to warm the first one up that way back to about 50% charge just in time for the second one to fail. So keeping a couple of these in the bag would really make the video stuff easier.
But all this does beg the question: what were you filming on to make this "battery test" video??? 😄
what camera did you use to record this?
In BC I had success in -30C if the battery started warm, i was able to record for about20-30 minutes
Trying to keep the battery as warm as possible is key!
@@JustinOutdoors i keep them in my inner pockets of my outer fleece layer and that helps a lot
Here’s an idea. Sometimes at more moderate temps if you warm up the camera in a pocket next to your skin you can get the camera to turn back on. I wonder if the enduro would do that?
Wow.. 😂. I am sure I will never find myself in those temps but very cool... literally haha
These batteries are definitely a game changer
Not sure if you still are using the GoPros. I sold all of mine about a year ago, I had like 4 with like 16 batteries. They're all garbage in the cold & its not even the batteries, you can put the body in the freezer and it will lock up the video but the audio keeps going. It's done it to me with the Hero 9 & 10. Long story short, GoPro does NOT have a cold rating on their devices. Bottom line... so I went with the DJI Action 3, bought 3 of them and they haven't faulted once. They have a cold rating and with the newer lithium batteries, I've done multiple time lapses this winter doing my cabin series for several hours and was shocked when I found them in the dark 3, 4, 5 hours later and the camera was still recording.
As an Australian I can't even imagine -25° (even though I live at just over 1km elevation in a colder part of Aus). I need to visit Canada some day!
Btw my guess is that the enduro batteries are using a different chemistry to normal lithium batteries.
3:43 What gloves are those?
What do you normally use to record when it's cold? The cold always kills everything I bring 😛
Usually just my phone
They need to make a remote battery pack for it to use in the cold, something more weather proof and secure than a normal battery bank and charging cable
What did you film this video if the GoPros were shutting off? How did you keep whatever you used warm enough to record?
I had a mirrorless camera I was keeping inside my jacket and only taking out for 20-30s of filming at a time.
@@JustinOutdoors Canadian Pro Tip right there! 🍁
Got the enduro batteries yesterday, took them for a trial run this morning on the ski hill. temp was about 8F, it was chilly. I had the go pro and my batteries inside my jacket on the gondola ride up. Took out the camera at the summit for about 5 minutes, started skiing, hit record. 4K 120 / High boost. The gopro recorded for about 33 seconds then shut down. Pretty disappointed. Anyone else feel like the firmware has something to do with it? I remember filming in much colder weather with standard batteries and getting better performance.
I would love for GoPro to release what the secret sauce is
Hey what happened to the new vid I was looking forward to watching that tonight
Audio got corrupt during upload! Going to come out on Friday at noon MT now
@@JustinOutdoors nice Mt time is the best.
What you use with these temp ?
I was using a mirrorless camera but putting it in my jacket except for 20-30s filming spurts.
My quretion is, what DID you use to record the video? LOL
A camera I kept in my jacket and only took out for 20s bursts!
had to rewatch this because my gopro keeps dying in the cold
Really hating gopro lately. Have used other action cams, my phone and even an old dslr which work perfectly fine in -15 to -25. Feels like a fishy way for them to get people to buy newer cameras, batteries and accessories. The hero 9 I have is also the least accessible/user friendly camera I’ve ever used. For now I’ll have to deal with not being able to make any good winter content. Thank you for showing the enduro so I don’t waste my money!
In reality if you are filming in conditions like this you will be carrying your camera on your body to keep warm
GoPro company is terrible. They wont sell these fantastic batteries for Canadians in Canada!
It's due to cross-boarder battery shipping laws.
GoPro crap. You'll have better luck filming with a toaster
