We recommend to charge AV1 every night with the supplied charger. If AV1 is used all day, it might need to be recharged during the day. It is possible to charge AV1 while streaming. When AV1 is almost out of battery you might experience instability while streaming. We recommend having the AV1 always at least 20% charged. You can find out about the battery level in the AV1 app and on the battery indicator on the back of the AV1.
How long does the battery last?
It depends on whether AV1 is used for streaming or not and how active the user is when streaming. If AV1 is used for streaming, the battery can last up to 5-6 hours. If it is on but not streaming, it lasts about 10 hours. If AV1 is not used for streaming, the battery levels will slowly decline.

AV1 must have a certain level of battery to function properly. When the battery has been totally emptied, model AV2 must be charged for about 30 minutes before you can start using it (while charging), while model AV1b must be charged for 2-3 hours before you can start using it (while charging)
How often should AV1 be charged?
AV1 should be charged after every use. We recommend charging AV1 every night. Only the supplied charger should be used.
Can AV1 be used while charging?
Absolutely!
If AV1 is out of battery, it needs to be charged for about 30 minutes (model AV2)/2-3 hours (model AV1b) before it can be used even though it is connected to the charger. If you connect to AV1 before it is thoroughly charged, you might experience that the app disconnects when streaming. This is because the battery capacity is too low to maintain the video stream.
Can AV1 be charged overnight?
Yes! We use a safe slow charger with AV1. Please note that only the supplied charger should be used.
