MAXCAM Aluminum Alloy Battery Cover Door for GoPro HERO13/HERO12/HERO11/HERO10/HERO9 Black

I ordered this for my GoPro Hero 11 to eliminate the annoying requirement of opening the entire battery compartment to plug in the USB-C cable. Despite reviews stating otherwise, this door was very simple to install and closes up securely. The small port for the USB-C cable is easy enough to open and snaps shut. It looks like a factory accessory (and frankly should be a factory feature). Two points to remember: 1) THIS DOOR IS NOT WATERPROOF, and 2) the little port is not spring loaded so it flops around, which is mildly annoying. That said, it is an accessory that is well worth the small cost if you want to connect your USB-C cable to the camera with greater convenience. It’s also easy to swap back to the factory panel if you decide to later on. To have a more watertight camera.

The MAXCAM Aluminum Alloy Battery Cover Door is perfect if you want to run your GoPro off a battery pack. Sturdy, well-made, and easy to install — it makes powering your camera for long shoots so much easier. Highly recommend for anyone using external power setups.

Perfect fit, great alternative and just makes since. You'll love the look, the ease, and of course the cost of is product. I've had mine for a couple of years and had no issues with over heating, wetness, or climatic issues. The temperature here can range from dry to heavily humid and I haven't had any issues.

I put this on my gopro 11 sonic could use an external battery pack for longer recordings. The USB-C cable I had wouldn't fully connect securely. I left the cover lifted to put the cable in. The hinge area wasn't a good secure fit and the cover fell off. I didnt notice it until later and by then I couldn't find the cover. Not sure I'd recommend this item. I will not be buying another one.

MAXCAM Aluminum Alloy Battery Cover Door for GoPro: Well-made & substantial, it's a perfect fit for my GoPro 12. Attachment was easy. It's a no-brainer choice over cheaper doors that have an uncovered hole for the charging cable. Those invite dirt & sand grains to get into the camera.

I bought a similar product from another manufacturer and it didn’t attach securely to my Hero 12. It was so bad that I ordered the MAXCAM within 30 minutes if receiving the other product. The MAXCAM has a secure hinge that actually clips on to the Hero 12 securely. I have no worries about the MAXCAM door disconnecting from the Hero 12 when I open it. The door will only come off if you intentionally take it off. And the small access door for the USB-C power cord is easy to operate. And out also stays closed when you close it. The only drawback is that the MAXCAM is not waterproof or dust proof. But the manufacturer doesn’t claim that it is. This is a very well made product for the price. I’m very happy with it.

Why did you pick this product vs others?: Best way to recharge your battery on the go. It is a solid build that adds super protection. The cover fit well and easy to put on.

Work great with my GoPro cameras, enabling external battery attachment!
