  • Here is a parts list:
    Fan: Noctua NF-A4x20 5V
    Grills: 40mm Black Fan Grill (2 Pack)
    Camera mounting Screws: Camera Hot Shoe Mount to 1/4"-20 Tripod Screw Adapter
    USB Cable to connect to power: Smays 15 ft Long Mini USB Cable
    The USB cable can be as long as you want. After cuting the unneeded plug, use the Black wire for ground and the Red wire for power to connect it to the fan terminals.

    Thanks to you, I'm not returning the Insta360 X4 that I precisely bought for recording my concerts, and after less than 30 mins 8K, it turns off because overheating. Your little trick allows me now to record more than an hour. Thanks again, and Insta360 should thank you too!.. 🙌🏻

      Glad I could help!! Please share some of your content. Really interested in concert videos. You can check some of my stuff here in my channel where I have a dedicated 360 video Playlist.

      @@AndreGranjo Obrigado!.. Can you please tell how you render 8K videos (software, format, bitrate, etc. do you use InstaStudio?) I ask because I use Premiere Pro and I used to record 360 videos of my concerts with my old X2 in 5.7k and now with the X4 in 8K I don't see so much differences in quality, it's pretty the same and actually it seems a bit noiser. Yours videos look sharper.

    Thank you! I was wanting to record concerts also, but in my tests the camera overheated. I've been trying to find an acceptable solution. Yours looks great! I wish you listed the parts and links to the fan and grill.

      Hi, nice to know other people using the camera the same way I am😅! I have added a parts list to the video's description. Maybe that helps you tracking the parts. Used Amazon for those exact items.

      In the experiments I did, in a warm room, it recorded for about 25min

    try to make x4's batterie outside of body on wire extension. this will cool it very quick. even without fan

    • @AndreGranjo
      @AndreGranjo  Месяц назад

      That is the solution I use for my GoPro MAX, but on the X4 the camera hasn't been working consistently powered only through USB-C. I will do more tests.

      @@AndreGranjo I thought so, too... Mine would shut off when using the power selfie stick without the battery in the X4. So, I did some research and discovered that you need a more powerful power bank if there's no battery in the camera. From reddit: "Has anyone run their 360 x4 off a external power bank? I tried but the 360 x4 won't power on if the battery is taken out?"
      Jacky_Insta360 "Make sure the external power bank can output 5V/3A power voltage. The X4 can be power on without battery. However, ensure using a 5V/3A power adapter. X4 also supports 9V/2A power adapters with PD (Power Delivery) protocol."
      Translation: If running with no battery, make sure any external power bank can output 5V/3A power voltage. The X4 can be powered on without a battery. However, this requires a 5V/3A power bank.

    Did you try the Thermo Cover they offer?

    • @AndreGranjo
      @AndreGranjo  Месяц назад +4

      People are misunderstanding the use of the thermal cover. It is meant to make it more comfortable to hold the camera, not to help with overheating (explanations given to me by Insta360). In some instances it may actually make the camera overheat faster as it prevents air from flowing around the camera.

      I thought the point was to disperse heat to a material more fit to do so. SMH.
