It uses a capacitor which is kept charged by the main battery. I've spoke with Canon and they say it will hold its charge for a good while when the main battery is out. I'm not sure but I thought Canon said a couple weeks. 1DX MK II, 5D MKIV x2, 24L II, 35L II, 50L, 85LIS, 100LIS Macro, 135L, 16-35LIS, 24-105LIS II, 70-200LIS, 100-400LIS II

puttick Senior Member  More info | Nov 12, 2019 15:23 | #7 It should stay charged longer than a couple of weeks! Certainly my 5d4 clock has never stopped, even when put away for 2 months at one point, without a battery installed. Nigel Puttick
