It takes approx. 2 hours to fully recharge a completely exhausted battery at room temperature (23°C / 73°F). The time required to recharge the battery will vary greatly depending on the ambient temperature and the battery’s remaining capacity.

Solution. A USB cable can be used to charge the camera’s battery. Insert the included battery into the camera for charging. You can use the compact power adapter, or a computer to charge the battery.

They retain 90% of their capacity after 1 year, 80% after 3 years, and even after 10 years in storage some 70%. Many other ready for use batteries lose their charge rather quickly.

The usual life of Li-ion batteries is only two to five years, even if they are sitting on a shelf unused. For this time batteries discharge (if not in use) from self-discharge current and they can’t be reactivated. The situation can become worse if the place where you store them is hot.

Make sure the battery you are using is charged; attempt to recharge the battery if necessary. Notes: The charging indicator may flash if the battery has not been charged for a long time or if it is new, right out of the box. In this case, temporarily remove the battery and then try charging it again.
