Extend Battery Life

Different settings have a significant impact upon battery life.

  • Night Vision Settings - The most effective battery saving tip is to turn the night vision off. While in Live View, tap Night Vision, and select Close to turn automatic night vision off. The camera has low light detection so can still be used with a night light without the need for night vision.
  • Power Mode Settings - To improve battery life. Go to camera Settings, Power Mode and ensure that Power Saving Mode is selected. Make sure you use the recommend power settings for motion detection, which will be shown in green when optimised.
  • Motion Detection Settings - For more Motion detection settings go to Motion Detection from the Live View. Here you can select Detection periods or create your own schedule. You can turn the Motion Detection off completely to increase battery life. You can also turn Push Notifications Off to increase battery life. Tap silence from the Home Screen
  • Video Definition Settings - From the live video screen, you can change the video definition. Choose HD or Super HD for the clearest picture, or SD to maximise battery life.
  • Enhanced Wifi Setting - Another battery saving tip is to turn Enhanced Wifi OFF under Device Settings
  • Use CubCam Accessories - You can use a power bank to increase battery life, the CubCam power bank is compact and has a handy lanyard which can be hung over the camera. We also offer an extended 3m charging cable if you choose to have the camera plugged in. See CubCam Accessories
  • Use WiFi Mode - AP Mode uses the most battery power, so use WiFi Mode where possible
