How does 'Grab and Go' battery mode work on Hive View?
The main way to power Hive View is by plugging the USB cable provided into the base of the stand and using the power adaptor provided via mains power. However, there is also the option to run the camera on battery power occasionally.
To do this, simply grab the camera off of the camera arm. This is connected magnetically so pulls away and attaches back easily. Hive View's built in battery lasts for up to one hour.
You will receive a ‘low battery’ notification when the battery is running low, and the dot light on the camera will start flashing red. The battery is rechargeable, just reattach the camera to the arm and ensure the stand base is connected to mains power that is switched on.
