Hi guys,


I'm off to Raro in a few weeks and would really like to use my GoPro in the water, sadly my original battery doesn't seem to hold any charge. The GoPro runs a few minutes then shuts down because it's out of battery no matter how long I charge it.


I've done a bit of looking around and can find genuine replacements on Amazon.com, the problem is the shippers do not ship to NZ, and according to YouShop terms I am not allowed to ship stand-alone batteries.


Trawling the interwebs in NZ I can find several sites that claim they sell GoPro batteries, but all of them seem to be cheap knock-off batteries that I'm not interested in.


Any advice where I can obtain one in AKL or on-line quickly and for a reasonable price?

Bivouac Outdoors has always been my go to - http://www.bivouac.co.nz/gopro-hero3-3plus-rechargeable-battery.html

 

All their GoPro stuff is official - Never had any problems with them, always great service online or in-store.
