Drain battey if d

Bought the REMOVU shortly after seeing the need for a remote display for the Hero4.Friday 1/2/2015I followed the "very simple" instructions and was able to get the unit functioning within a few minutes. I started looking through the menu on the REMOVU and at some point, the REMOVU locked up. It locked up hard and would not shut down. Even the little reset button in the hole near the USB port did not shut the unit down. I had to let it exhaust the battery to power down the unit. I then charged it from "dead", restarted it and was able to get into the pairing mode once again, but this time the unit froze again upon selecting the gopro network. I have an email into REMOVU, but being Friday I don't expect a reply. The unit is currently dying a slow death by battery drain. I will try to get it to power up and sync once again while waiting for an email reply from REMOVU. This has been very frustrating. It seems the customer is once again...Read more

It works okay, not perfect but. Here are my Pros v. Cons after using it for a few weeks.PROS:- Great to have when you want to set the camera down or put it on a mount where there are tight/small spaces. Unlike the built in LCD or the backpack, you have to be behind the camera at all times. With this, you can walk freely and know you got the correct shot. It's very helpful if you want to mount the camera and you're alone. This is so that you don't need another person to tell you if they got the shot or not. You already know.- Light, small, and compact. Fits in any backpack or carrying case.-It shows you the battery on both the goPro and the unit itself. It doesn't tell you how much time or percentage. Just a gauge. It's better than nothing.- Comes pre charged so you can use it right out of the box.- It has a live feed before and during recording.CONS:- Extremely short batter life.

So I’ve been looking for a simple way to frame my shots for my Hero 3 while on the go, after all a GoPro is an on-the-go camera. The phone app was my first attempt, but I wanted a designated viewing device, so I purchased a cheap android phone and an arm band case. But I found it too big/bulky and not so reliable as it had a lag.And then I chanced upon this, small compact and reliable standalone device and I couldn’t be happier. After using for a while I can’t imagine myself ever GoPro-ing without it. It’s a must have gopro accessory and will make framing and controlling so much easier. The biggest advantage is that being that it’s so small and strapped to your wrist, it’s not an extra item to lag around and fumble with. After using this it’s hard to imagine that using a phone was a practical option in my mind in the past. This is 100x better, like myself, you wont even realize how unpractical a phone is till you try this...Read more
