Hi,
I have a wireless camera that works from a rechargeable battery. It works as expected when the battery is on by itself. It also works when the battery is connected and plugged in to the charger. The problem is when the camera is on and the battery is charging; but then I remove the charger the PCB switches off and I have to manually flick the on/off switch to get it back on. I've tried it on two cameras of the same type and it is the same on both.
What is happening here? Does the PCB charger need a holdover capacitor?
I have another similar camera that doesn't have this problem.
I tried to upload a short video but I can't see how I can do it.
Thanks for looking.
