Battery life on DSLR is enough for most people, but if you want to expose for a long time
Failed, a single charge may not last long enough to get the lens you want.
You can always connect it to the extension cord to charge when shooting, but this can be annoying to you.
Instead, if you know a little bit about the circuit and you have enough confidence to turn on the battery and move around, here are two ways to modify it in order to extend the shooting time.
Connect your battery to high
JP Danko got some parts from the cheap Aftermarket Battery and he hacked into the battery and connected it to the external battery, extending its duration by four times.
You need the camera battery, adapter board, battery charger and replacement battery pack for your camera (
You can find the link used by JP here).
You need some higher.
Gauge line, soldering iron and hot glue gun.
Basically, you'll cut the replacement battery, remove the board, weld it on the new lead, and then stick everything hot in place.
If you don't want to take everything apart, you can also connect the lead of the external battery directly to the terminal.
The external battery is connected to the camera battery substrate in order to remove the battery to charge and replace the battery to enter the camera.
The door should be closed, but you may need to make a small gap for the wire.

Step-by-step tutorials for more details and photos of the process.
If you are exposed for a long time, convert your battery into a PSU for continuous charging, and the better option may be to turn your battery into a power unit, it can be charged at any time like the Instructables user andrea Bifi.
You will basically replace the inside of the battery with a step
You can find super cheap adjustable power modules online.
First, Andrea turns on the camera battery and takes out two lithium-
Ion cells inside
He drilled a hole in the battery box and welded the power cord through the battery box to the input and output.
If you are interested in trying it yourself, be sure to check Andrea's tutorial for details.
