When I first got them, they were able to record without external power for about an hour or so. Now they can't seem to hold a charge at all. Is this typical? Do their batteries typically die after a certain point from keeping a charge?
Additionally, the camera seems to have an issue where it doesn't keep the video when the power is cut. In the past, it kept them. Now when external power is cut, no video files. I'm wondering if this is tied to the first issue above where the lack of battery power is preventing it from writing the video when external power is cut.
Lastly, it won't record the current time even though Sync Time is set to yes in the utility. It keeps a 12/31/2011 date.
I've been testing with both my car and a Duracell external power cell via USB.
