Pre-Operation
These sections include important steps to undertake prior to operation.
Charging System Batteries
The Boom Camera comes with 3x ‘26650’ LiFePo4 ‘lithium’ batteries, and a wall charger. To charge the
batteries, simply slot each battery within the charger as shown below. Batteries can be charged all together, or
individually. A green light in each charging lane indicates a fully charged battery.
NOTE: The batteries provided are “smart” and are internally protected with special el
ectronics. When the
batteries are drawn down below 3.2V, they may show 0V on the charger due to the protective electronics. A
few tries with the charger will bring them back. The internal protection prevents any individual battery from
destroying itself when being drawn too low. The protective electronics ensure the batteries will last many
years.
Charging the Android device
The Android device is a commercial off the shelf Samsung Note 8. This device is charged using the provided
USB-C cable.
