The Wicked Chili battery came very well packaged and came along with me without prejudice.
The battery is wrapped in a plastic bag that lies again with the operating instructions in a cardboard box.
After unpacking the battery, I have this charged in a charging cradle.
The battery looks very high quality and the red black design is very appealing, The shape is slightly different from the original GoPro batteries, but not to the Weiss batteries. This deviation is actually irrelevant to the fit, where the Wicked Chili battery appears to be slightly higher and thus it can be concluded somewhat heavier the cover of GoPro. The tab for removal from the GoPro Hero is mounted as the Weiss batteries, in the other direction to the original GoPro batteries. But even that is for removing irrelevant, since the function is guaranteed. The batteries fit otherwise very good in my GoPro and in my accessory pocket, where additional pockets for batteries are prefabricated.
Scope of supply:
1x Battery 1160mAh, 3.8V, 4.4 Wh incl. Instructions for use
I took in an additional test nor the Touch LCD Backpack than what the battery again demanded more.
I have the following settings are used to perform the tests:
Resolution: 1080p narrow at 120 frames in PAL video format
All LEDs are off and beeps, just like WiFi to save battery.
The Wicked Chili battery without touch LCD creates a recording of ca.104 minutes
The white battery managed a recording of about 103 minutes.
The original battery remains in a recording time of about 108 minutes, the most representative among current donors.
The LCD touch screen as Backpack, the recording time is reduced to almost half.
The Wicked Chili battery then stops by ca.52 minutes.
The white battery managed to take about 53 minutes.
The original battery, however, can still overtake with a recording time of approximately 57 minutes, the other batteries.
The original battery and the Weiss batteries were already repeatedly discharged and recharged and the capacity has not changed to the other test a little, however, this change also measurement uncertainties and fluctuations in the capacity to be due.
The recording time of the Wicked chilli batteries differed to the original batteries in my test so only a few minutes. Also to the other batteries of Weiss, the differences are not really significant.
The price of batteries is very good, because you have to lie about 19.99 euros for an original battery. The capacity of the batteries is different in my practice test does not appreciably from the originals or other alternatives on what speaks to the quality of the cells. The values of the batteries same with the originals and the Weiss batteries.
I would recommend also this battery as an alternative.
The barely measurable size differences (deviations less than one millimeter) and the resulting closure of the lid slightly heavier tarnish the experience.
