Keeping Camcorder Battery in Charge
Keeping Camcorder Battery in Charge
Charge your camcorder before leaving for your destination. Check the battery level in advance to make sure that the battery charge is at a 100 percent. If you do not use the camcorder for a long time, the battery can lose its charge. To preserve the battery life, it is best to remove from the camcorder before storing it.
Use the viewfinder on the camcorder instead of using the LCD screen. Using the LCD screen can shorten the amount of life that you can get out of your battery. Using the viewfinder may be a bit cumbersome, but it will allow you more time to video.
Minimize the use of some of the features on your camcorder when making a video. This will make your keep the charge longer. Some features such as zooming in and out can decrease the battery charge.
Place the battery pack into the battery pack attachment platform and push the battery into place. The battery attachment platform is located in the area that the LCD covers when it's closed. When you hear a clicking sound, the battery is in place.

Plug the AC adapter into the wall and allow the camcorder to charge. When the indicator light--located to the right of the power button--turns green, your camcorder is fully charged.
Connect the AC power adapter into either a wall outlet or an available outlet in a surge protector. Connect the other end of the power adapter cord into the "DC in" jack on your Samsung camcorder. The charging indicator will begin to blink. The indicator is located above the "DC In" jack.
Disconnect the camcorder from the AC power adapter once the charging indicator light stops blinking and stays on. This means that the camcorder is at or very near a 100 percent charge. Do not disconnect the battery pack; otherwise your camcorder will not turn on or operate.
Allow the battery to charge. While the phone is charging, the battery icon will change from a battery with one bar, to a battery with two bars, to a battery with three bars and then start all over. When the battery is fully charged, the battery icon will display a battery with three bars. Once this is displayed, unplug the adapter from the electrical outlet and from the phone.
Check to make sure the battery's connections are clean and good. If the connections are dirty, clean the connections by pouring soda pop over top the terminals and using steel wool or emery cloth to remove any corrosion that has built up and re-tighten the terminals. Next, follow the negative cable (black) from the battery to the bike's ground. Check this connection and if you are suspect, remove and clean up the ground with emery cloth and tighten. Next, check for a sticker that says when the battery was first installed. The sticker will have a letter and a number. The letter corresponds to the month (A = January, B= February and so on) and the number is the year. If the battery is over five years old and/or the bike has been sitting for a while it's probably time to replace it but it doesn't hurt to try and resuscitate the battery. Start by putting a voltmeter on the terminals to read current voltage. A properly charged battery will have 12.6 volts or above. If your battery falls below this threshold it's time to recharge the battery.
