Can i use extended battery on this housing with Hero 2? how do you guys mount this when diving?

No idea what the extended battery is. I do know with the stock battery it is a tight fit.As for mounting, I used this video on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RhmqrpJPzYgWorked beautifully.

I think the extended batt comes with an additional backdoor. You can clic the batt and new backdoor to this housing. This housing is exactly the same as the standard one. The only difference is the lens which is flat (instead of convex).

I also bought the extended battery backpack and you can use it on the dive housing. Just switch out the back door with the one that comes with battery backpack

I am not sure about the extended battery, but I have installed the LCD screen attachment. The screen came with a few backs (waterproof and open) that I used to switch out the regular back (really easy... The back just pops off the hinge on the bottom). I would check the contents of the extended battery box. If it mentions a back, it will likely work the same way...

I dot have an extended battery but the backdoor or the dive housing is the same as the fisheye housing so I assume you would just use your extended door the same way you do now. When I dive with my gopro I either where it on my head (I usually forget its there until I go to remove my mask) or if I am spearing I attached a mount to my speargun for it.

I don't know about the battery. I used it snorkling - used a wrist mount mostly. I did see people with the "stick" mount - like those used by snowboarders. I think that would be great, except there is no way that the floatie will get the camera and the stick back to the surface if you drop it.

Hi Jim, It is a pressure fit, a very small percentage of the GoPro Hero3+ housings are small, and we have a custom base piece for that (yours sounds like it). Shoot me an email and we will 2 day you the replacement today: jeff.overall@polarprofilters.com -Polar Pro

I dont think you can replace the battery.... The camera is sealed. The waterproof case has the same sistem to attach the other mounts, so you can use it everywhere....

My son has a gopro hero 3. It does come with more than one "back door" (to fit different cameras) but I couldn't tell you if one of them is for the HD Hero 2. The floaty itself it just a serperate piece of some type of floaty foam, and you use the sticky pads to attach it to a back door. So if you have more than one, or can leave it on your waterproof back door that you have, it would work either way. Once you stick it, it can't come off, unless you have several water proof tapes to use.

As far as I know It only works with waterproof housing for Hero 3 which is what I have. You would have to check on other models of GoPro to see if it would fit those.

This has worked fine for my Hero3 in the standard case through a snowboarding and river rafting season.It is specifically designed for the GoPro case not regular cameras.

I see that others have answered your battery question, so I'll just say that this is a really good dive light. Amazingly, it lit up the murk in Perch lake in NM to the point where we could even use a GoPro. Our only complaint is that, the first time we used it, it fell out of it's hand mount as soon as the mount was saturated, so be careful!

Max battery life with gopro mounted is going to be 15 minutes. If it's cold, like 12 minutes. I don't think the initial height should affect this at all. Have fun.

Yes, this fits the GoPro Hero 3+ Dive Housing Model: AHDEH-301... (AHDEH-301 is *not* the housing that comes with the GoPro Hero 3+ but instead the accessory housing that costs ~$60)

The Hero3 Housing is the same as the Hero3+ Dive Housing, so you need to make sure you order the Hero3+ Dive housing Version. Here is the ASN to be sure: B00GX3314A-PolarPro

If I have the GoPro 3+ Does it also come with the underwater housing that can fit both the camera and the LCD Pack? Thanks a lot if someone can help answer

I have the Hero 3+ black and this does not fit it. There is not enough room on the jhook to aim the camera straight forward. I suggest you get the gopro version.

The hook at the end doesn't allow the underwater housing's lock to be used. If you cut that hook, that will be perfectly usualable with the housing, but not with the naked camera anymore

No the dive housing is for GoPro 1-2, the 3 doesn't need a dive housing just the filter.

Yes. I have mounted my GoPro Hero3+ Black upside down using this frame and it was very secure. It has a ridge around the inside edge of the plastic frame so even when the camera and frame aren't on a mount the camera won't fall out unless you pry open the frame where it splits at the mounting point. Once you tighten it down on a mounting point, it isn't going anywhere.

Hi Adam! Our waterproof camera floats work very well with GoPro cameras, I actually just used it recently myself with a GoPro Hero Black 3+ camera and was very happy with the results :-). The attachment process is very simple; in the bottom of your waterproof housing there is a small "steel bar hinge", in the middle of that there is a small opening (just behind the extension connector). Detach the lanyard (bottom part) of the camera float and thread it through the middle of the "steel bar hinge". The attachment process should look something like this http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/71J0dfV3TjL._SL1500_.jpg Wish I was able to upload a video showing it, would be much easier, but unfortunately that's not possible here on Amazon :-/. Please let me know if you need further instructions and I'll try to help you more :-) Have a great day! Henrik / Nordic Flash

Yes. All GoPros use the same interlocking tab mounting system. So mounts that worked for the original also will work for the Hero 2 or 3.
