Guys,

Been having a battery problems with my new GoPro 5.
I've yet to actually use it but on playing around with settings / learning the functions...the camera is at 100% full.
I switch the camera off completely overnight and by morning the battery is dead.

I have re-charged the battery, removed from the camera and left 24hrs.
24hrs later the battery is still 100%...so safe to say I've ruled out a faulty battery.

Called GoPro tech support but no such help yet other than raising me a case number and following the remove battery instructions as above.

Any ideas? Read online people talking about switching off bluetooth and wifi but surely if the camera is off...it's off.

TIA
Gareth
