Abstract
An image capture device includes a housing; a lens cover disposed on the housing; a lens disposed within the housing beneath the lens cover; a lens cavity defined between the lens and the lens cover; a battery cavity defined within the housing; a lens vent fluidly coupling the lens cavity and the battery cavity; a battery disposed within the battery cavity; and a desiccant patch coupled to a side of the battery. Moisture introduced into the battery cavity by the battery, the lens cavity, or the lens vent is absorbed by the desiccant patch.
