Per GoPro, Volta is weather-resistant and can be used in rain or snow, though no official waterproof rating is stated. Further, 35% of plastic parts used in the Volta are made from recycled materials.

While it is designed for the Hero 10, Volta is compatible with HERO9 Black, and it will charge any USB-C-compatible device, including GoPro MAX and older GoPro cameras.
