Curry’s gave me a refund, amazingly! 🙂 The original 4 that broke last week was just a week away from the year warranty. “Lucky” it broke when it did really. The replacement lasted 4 days….
I’ve used Hero 3+’s with the same battery eliminator with no issue, recording for hours at a time in hot studio conditions.
The Hero 4 just seemed rubbish TBH. Have they just tried to pack too much into it and it can’t cope?
I’ve ordered a re-conditioned replacement hero 3+ from ebay for 160 quid (with a years warranty). Super! 🙂
