Got a kijiji GoPro 7 black with one battery and looking for charger that will under my R6 back seat. Any members that run a GoPro/ action camera on their helmet have any suggestions? What's your GoPro/ action camera setup for the bike/helmet?

btw do you use go GoPro/ action camera for fun or for security (ie dashcam)
 
Are you trying to power the camera or charge a spare battery? For an older gopro I have a Wasabi power charger and batteries. USB powered and can charge two batteries at once. Throw an elastic around it and batteries won't fall out with bike movement.
 
I want to charge a spare battery (when I get one). I will check out the Wasabi.
 
Hero10 Black on a chin mount for recreation not security.

I don't charge batteries on the bike. I have two Hi-Cap Enduro batteries + two of the original GoPro battery ready to go before each ride, should provide me with about 5-6 hours of shooting. Charge them all up in the hotel in the evening.

I use a dual battery charger, plus a cable to the GoPro will charge the battery inside. 3 batteries charged at a time.

This is what I ordered:


If you really wanted to charge the batteries on the bike, you could hook up a 12V -> USB C cable to your motorcycle battery, but the charging unit + batteries are bulky. Unless you have a lot of room, I doubt they'd fit under your seat. Also, the batteries would probably dislodge out of the charger on the first bump unless you wrapped a rubber band over the whole thing.

A better fit would be charging in a tankbag.

GoPro 7 Black, mounted to handlebars (RAM Mount) with continuous power from USB cable to port on bike. I have a spare battery just in case, but don't ever use it.
 
GoPro.com wants $16.oo for shipping and $35.00 for duties and taxes for a $87.00 purchase. (Dual charger with 1 battery plus 2 extra battery)
btw if you want to tear out your hair, try using the GoPro video edit app/software

I bought mine from Best Buy, at the time there was a package deal, case and a few accessories etc. Plus the guy gave me a bit of a deal off the price.
