Insta360 X3 (reviewed here) is the most popular 360 camera on the market right now, with excellent image quality and usability.  It has a battery that can record about 1 hour of video, which by itself may not be enough for a whole day of shooting.  Fortunately, the battery is removable and you can get extra batteries.

When bringing extra batteries, sometimes I have a hard time finding them in my bag when mixed up along with several other accessories.  One solution is Firstpower’s multipurpose case:

  • Quick charger: the case can charge two batteries at the same time, up to 4.4V at 2 amps each battery.  No need to remember to switch batteries after each one is charged.  Just plug into a USB adapter (5V to 12V) and the case will charge both batteries simultaneously.  Each battery slot has an LED light that is red while charging and turns green when fully charged.  It should take about 75 minutes to charge two batteries.
  • Storage case: after charging your batteries, you can bring them in the charger which doubles as a compact case with magnetic lid.
  • Micro SD Card storage case: the case’s lid has two slots for storing extra Micro SD cards.  The Micro SD cards are easy to insert and remove and are securely held in place.

The charger case comes with two extra batteries.  The batteries are 1800mah each (the same as the original Insta360’s battery).  They look slightly different from Insta360’s battery, with two metal studs but Firstpower claims that the batteries have the same OEM chip as Insta360’s original battery, which means you won’t get any error messages.  I’ve tested the batteries on my X3 and found no error messages.  I was able to record nonstop for 1 hour 11 minutes, the same as the original Insta360 X3 battery.

Firstpower allows fast charging (2 amps) of two batteries at the same time.

I wish the Firstpower’s USB Type C port was bidirectional so that I could use it to charge my phone in an emergency.  Alas, it can only be used to charge batteries.

WHERE TO BUY; DISCOUNT

Including two batteries and a USB Type C cord, the Firstpower case is regularly $46.99, about the same price as the Insta360 Fast Charger, which does not include any batteries.  At the time of this writing, there’s a 20% off discount available, bringing the price to $31.99 (be sure to check the box for 20% off coupon), which is an amazing value in comparison to this bundle with Insta360 Fast Charger and two batteries for $139.
