I switched batteries, tried to get the voice control to work but my voice is just raspy enough it would not work. We ran into the same problem while making the "Green Shiner" article. The writer's voice is very clear and he could talk to my camera and it worked fantastic. I'm ordering batteries today. We'll see if I can get it to work after they come in.
I hate the gopro, at least back in the day when I first got into it (and out). Yep, my batteries would always die. It would turn itself on and off randomly. The buttons were goofy, never knew if it was on or off. Just was not user friendly or reliable. So I gave mine away and never looked back. I use my phone. Good enough.
