M6 Mark II Help with internal battery question

[djjoonie]

Hello all, i have m6ii but the date and time resets every time i swap the battery. if i swap it within a sec, it doesnt reset sometimes. So my question is how come it only resets the date and time if its the internal memory battery that is not working? the wifi, bluetooth settings and all my camera settings are all intact even if i leave out the battery for much longer. I already tried the clear all settings on p mode m mode video mode etc. please help! thank you!

No,
looks like I have to find the way to charge main battery via usb-c port. To avoid to remove main battery.

thanks

That works, by the way.   and it's a decent workaround -- the problem is that the batteries are not particularly large, and it's easy to wind up needing a battery change during a shoot.   You /could/ use one of those power bricks, I suppose.   None of these solutions are ideal.
