How do I know when my countCAM2 is fully charged?
The countCAM2 utilizes a screw on three-pin charging cable, provided with each camera, for charging. When charging, the countCAM2 will show a green light indication on the front face plate. This light will remain illuminated until the camera is completely charged.

How do I determine the battery capacity of my countCAM2?
The countCAM2 utilizes an internal lithium-ion battery providing a minimum of 50-hours of recording time. However, overtime lithium-ion batteries will slowly lose their capacity, reducing the total recording time when compared to a new device. A runtime test will provide the most accurate results for determining the current battery capacity of your countCAM2 Traffic Recorder. Complete a Runtime test by completing the following steps:
- Fully charge your countCAM2 device until the green charge indication on front of the camera turns off.
- Turn on the countCAM2 and connect to the device using your phone or tablet.
- Open the countCAM App and start a recording. A recording light should blink within the App screen and the countCAM2 should blink.
- Allow the camera to run until the battery dies. This should take 50 to 60 hours with a new device.
- Once dead, plug the countCAM2 into a computer to review the recorded files. Note the start time and date of the first and last file. Use these times to determine the runtime of your fully charged camera.
