Re: heating problem
[ New ]So rather burn up the cam. GoPro set the shut off level low. They can raise it a few degrees to stay on.
For yi claiming I am a cooler cam 145 degrees. It works. Here in the cold my phone shuts down. What do I do. It’s 40 degrees.

Re: heating problem
[ New ]Okay, I have read the thread, and I maybe I missed it but I don't see a solution.
Camera is set at 1080 / 60. Sandisc Extreme Pro Card 64 Gb, V30, A2
Camera was too hot to even touch. Air temp is 65 degrees.
Battery only lasted 45 minutes.
Software is up to date.
I worked with all kinds of cameras vbefore and never experienced this extreme heat like this?
Sincerely worried, as mentioned before, that it's gonna burn out the CPU?
Help!?

Re: heating problem
[ New ]Hello @jayr3438
The Firmware is Version1.70. Quick says it's up to date.
Any suggestions?
This is my first GoPro. So I have no previous experience with them to know what is normal or not. I just know the camera was very hot to touch after doing a bettery test with the previously mentioned settings: 1080 / 60, Linear, Low lIght Off, Stabilization Auto, Protune Off, WiFi off. I used a SanDisk Extreme Pro SD Card with 64 GB, V30 / U3 / A2 settings. I have since gone back to the SanDisk 32 GB, V30/U3/A1 card that GoPro sent with the camera purchase. I am still experineceing a very hot camera and 45 minute battery life. I will say that I am not seeing the camera shut off from overheating, but it feels like I could cook an egg on it.

Re: heating problem
[ New ]The Hero Black 5 I have never got hot. Battery life wasn’t bad either.
I downloaded the latest updates through the app but I am very worried the hero 7 will explode.
