Hi,
So iv'e bought a new SJ7, currently with v1.18 version.
I checked it few times in home, it looked good, and then i went to a ski trip.
After charging the camera few hours before the ski, as i started skiing [-3 Celsius] it took around 10 seconds to call for "Low battery" and to shutdown.
I managed to open it few times later and all my videos lasted for 3-6 seconds each before shutting down again.
I though maybe the resolution was the issue, or it might have not been fully charged, so i charged it again the next day, and lowered the resolution to 1440.
Of course the same has happened.
When i came home after the trip, and iv'e checked the camera [20 Celsius] it worked pretty well.
It comes to the conclusion that the battery can't handle cold weather. The battery is a brand new Sjcam Lithium Li-ion 1000mah battery.
Is there and kind of solution to this problem? Iv'e bought the camera for skiing, not for traveling around, so it really frustrates me.
Moreover, after the final complete shutdown in the ski area, when i started to recharge the battery, all my date-time setting have been changed to a random date and time in 2017.
Talking about how HOT the camera was while charging would be understatement. I could make an omelet on top of it.
Does anyone has some answers for this issues?
I'm pretty frustrated right now..
Thanks!
