Timelapse

I have a Nikon DSLR D7100 and am trying to do a timelapse (new to it) of my print. The print is going to take 70 hours. Any idea on how to extend the battery for the camera or figure out a different way to keep it charged so I don't have large gaps? Currently it makes it about 3 hours and that's fine when I am here to take it out and replace, but while at work or asleep....doesn't work so well.

Re: Timelapse

Can you use a charging lead on the camera, so it doesn't need the battery changing?

Re: Timelapse

Nikon sells a battery 'replacer/adapter' and a power cable to plug your phone in for this type of thing.
There are also aftermarket versions of this.
