Important Winter Note: After using this solution for some time now we received a message from the app stating: “Unable to charge.  The camera battery is unable to be charged when ambient temperature is higher than 45 °C (113 °F) or lower than 0 °C (32 °F)”.

It appears if the temperature of the batteries falls below 0 °C then it cannot be charged by the charger. We’re looking for a solution for this and hope to release an update video in the future. Stay tuned!
