Great mount but there are serious power issues... Before I got this mount I recorded with the batteries and never had a recording fail. With this mount plugged into external power from a 12 V receptacle on boat and tested with a Power Bank, the recording continuously fails after less than a minute, up to about 8 minutes. I either get a "Recording Repaired" or Recording Failed to Repair" error message. I can't figure out a way to resolve this. My camera is running the latest firmware 2.04.
Clark - please contact me using the Contact Tab.
This is not an issue that we have faced. There is something wrong with either the power cable or the power source.
Your X~PWR kit included both the 18' and 66' cables. Did both cables give the same error?

Great Cooperation!
A bit pricey for what it is, but it looks like it will do the job
Hi Walt,
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a 5-star review. I'm thrilled to hear that you're happy with the product overall.
I want to share that each assembly is made from custom-machined aluminum parts. The cost of machining small quantities is much more than you might expect.
The X~PWR MAX kit also includes a specially made USB cable, which like the housing, is costly due to the small quantities of each batch.
Cheers,
DonB
Five Stars 100%. I've been putting the X-PWR H8 and MAX through long days on the river with no issues. Being in 30 degree weather on the river I can keep the battery warm in my jacket and GoPro can run with battery in or out. With it out and using just external battery the camera won't shut off. With it in, you need to check your camera battery level and turn on your battery pack. The external battery should turn off when your GoPro is fully charged. Repeat this process throughout the day. I opt for battery out. Hassle free baby.
I haven’t gotten it installed yet due to work and weather but the construction and easy of this product is amazing
