Works with some work.

The case is solid but needed to modified. I had to un glue the adapter and grind (file) off one of the 4 ribs that hold the camera in. There was not enough clearance for my hero silver and the power cord to fit

Great go pro add-on

Works great with my existing case. It is nice to be able to plug it in for long shots and not have to worry about the short battery life with my GoPro batteries. Seals up nicely so I don't have to worry about leaving my camera overnight for some star shots. The product actually arrived earlier than the estimated shipping date too which was nice!

Great product!

I bought this so I can use my GoPro on my motorcycle trips. Having to change a battery every hour was a problem, but with this power cable, everything is great. I was even able to use my video screen back by notching the case of the GoPro and routing the cable out the bottom. Great product, works as advertised and was shipped in a very timely manner. Could not ask for more. (Sorry for the bug guts on the windshield in the video) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gDU-a8dfg3w&feature=youtu.be

The best product for GoPro!!

Just like it says, get rid of your batteries if You can? But for a boat operator and just fish and not worry about changing out dying batteries!! PERFECT! And the Best Price!!!! Amazon wants 45.00 dollars for the same product! Silly! Thank you Adorama!

Take your GoPro HERO3 or HERO3+ to new heights with the 10' Battery Eliminator USB Power Cable. This innovative accessory is designed to provide a reliable, high-quality power source for your action camera, directly from any external USB power source.

Constructed with durability in mind, this power cable is perfect for professional filmmakers and hobbyists alike who appreciate the versatility of the GoPro but require a more convenient power solution. The GoPro's compact form factor, while appealing, can limit the battery life. This is where our Battery Eliminator comes in, offering an effective solution for extended use of your GoPro, without the need for constant battery changes.

The Battery Eliminator employs a concept similar to a DC coupler found in camcorders and DSLRs. It features a coupler plate that mimics the original battery, but with a 10' power cord that terminates in a USB type A male power connector. This design allows you to power your GoPro from nearly any 5VDC USB source, including a laptop computer, portable power station, car USB port, or even an AC wall adapter.

For those using the camera in challenging locations, this power cable is a game-changer. It eliminates the need for battery swaps in hard-to-reach places, making it an essential accessory for any GoPro user.

Please note, if a housing is used, the Battery Eliminator requires the Skeleton Housing. It is also possible to use the Underwater Housing with the Skeleton back door. While this setup will provide splash protection from the front, the camera will not be fully watertight due to the opening at the back for the USB cable.

Experience the freedom of extended GoPro usage with the 10' Battery Eliminator USB Power Cable, the perfect companion for your GoPro HERO3 or HERO3+.
