For anyone else that may need this answer. Purchased X3 new. Recorded at 4k and 5.7k on 85 degree July day in the forest with limited direct sun. Only recording 15-20 min. at a time yet X3 still gave warning "camera is shutting down to prevent overheating". Was the first time using X3, didn't try 1080. We run (5) Hero 8 Black for 8 hrs. connected to power and never shut off using 1080 but will with 4k+.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I haven't tried using it while plugged in. I bought an extra battery and it seems to last all day between the 2. I just did a similar trip and having one battery charging in my saddlebag, while the other is in the camera worked out great.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I notice my camera got hot after a few minutes working with just the battery.
