Genuine GoPro Hero 1 2 3 Battery Bacpac & Battery $29.95 + Free Shipping

100

I've been looking for a battery bacpac ever since getting the HD Hero 3 Black edition months and months ago as it has roughly half the battery life of my Hero HD. Most prices seemed to be $50+ even from overseas eBay sellers and Amazon, once shipping was figured in.

Note that this backpac is the older style one that takes the same batteries as the Hero 1 and Hero 2, which is IMO better than the newer one as the battery is slimmer. I also have a few of the older batteries which makes that decision even easier.

From a local eBay seller with a very high rating is a big plus too.

I snapped one up without hesitation and would recommend all Hero 3 Black owners to get one (double that poor <1 hour battery life).

What's Included:
1 Battery BacPac
1 Li-Ion Battery same as used in Hero2
1 Waterproof Door
1 Skeleton Door

1 USB Cable
Warranty: One Year

  • Does the Hero 2 battery that comes with this work with either the HeroHD or the Hero3?

    • It will work inside the Hero 1 and Hero 2 with or without a bacpac, and will work with the Hero 3 with this bacpac.

      I thought I made it clear in the description but I can see how some people who are very new with GoPro cameras (or don't own one) can be a little mixed up by the wording.

      • In comparison with the original gopro bacpac it comes with a bacpac housing for $50.

        • This one comes with both skeleton and waterproof doors :)

          EDIT: You deleted the part I was replying to.

        • yeah i just saw in the decription.

          sorry! i was trying to delete my previous comment.

          i am getting myself one of these.

          since i got a few spare Hero2 batteries, i was tossing up whether to get more Hero3 batteries or not.

          thanks for the post =)

        • +1

          No problems. Yeah it's a pretty awesome deal, especially for us with spare batteries for Hero 1 + 2 that we can now use with the Hero 3.

          I never bought a spare battery for my Hero 3 because of this, I knew this older backpac would be much better both for price and can use the 3 spare older style batteries for the Hero 3. Guess I'm a typical ozbargainer for waiting the 3+ months for a deal like this to come up lol.

          Maybe +1 the deal if you liked it?

        • took me a few minutes looking for the vote button, found it though.

          been using OB for years now just only recently i signed up ;D

        • And here I was biting my nails in suspense waiting to see it change. I never knew how much I cared for imaginary internet points lol!

      • I don't own a Hero 3 to compare it with yet… the main reason is the low reported battery life.

      • Good link. I didn't know that the new bacpac didn't have a removable battery. That really cements the older style as being much better than the newer one in my book.

      • Thanks, that answered a lot of questions.

  • Good stuff.
    Thanks OP.

  • My item haven't been sent out yet.

    and i just viewed the item again, the seller bumped his price up. =(

    anyone else got their order sent out yet?

  • Nooo!!! Was about to buy it but now the price has gone up to $47… Guess this has expired :( missed out!!

    • my item just been shipped out today

      sorry for those who missed out :(

      it's still cheaper than most the sellers online.

  • Mine came this morning. Works great with the original HD Hero and the HD Hero 3 Black.

    It also came with an extra 'elbow' joint so that when it's mounted there is still the full range of movement, which was nice as it wasn't advertised.

    • Mine arrived yesterday morning as well.
      Well packed & quick delivery.
