No. We developed the Unleashed to be as tiny as possible so it could stay on the camera at all times. This alone meant that the Unleashed couldn’t be a camera accessory that needs to be charged and that it had to be an extremely power saving device. This is why we developed it to use so little camera battery power that you won’t even notice it. Also, when the camera and app are not actively used, many power-saving mechanisms kick in, so in total the Unleashed’s usage is very negligible.
