BATTERY LIFE
When using the REDMOTE in wireless configuration, the battery will last approximately 8 hours before
charging is necessary.
NOTE: When not using the REDMOTE, for maximum battery storage life, use the Power / Lock Switch to
power down the REDMOTE completely by pressing down in the power off position and using the displayed
menu to shut down the REDMOTE and/or the REDMOTE and camera. Refer to POWER UP / DOWN >
POWER DOWN. If the Power / Lock Switch is pressed down in the power off position and held until the
REDMOTE powers down, the battery storage life will be reduced greatly as there will be a slight power draw
on the REDMOTE when shut down using this procedure.
CHARGING

camera wirelessly.
