      What’s everyone getting for battery life on a daily basis for vertical and vertical solars?

      I charged mine to 100% Saturday morning ahead of today’s scheduled release and am already down to 80%.

      One indoor strength exercise one outdoor exercise (performance, following guide, no route).

      Dim level at 5%, sleep tracking yes, sp02 no, notifications yes

      I have the solar and although I got no sun this weekend I’m well below the stated non solar battery performance 😞

      Always carry a flaggon of whiskey for snakebite; and furthermore, always carry a small snake.

        @stromdiddily how long have you been using your watch => is this high consumption something new that happen to you ?
        Check first backlight settings, notifications…
        Also battery need a least ful cycle for calibration

          Have had it for a few months now, this is the first time I’ve noticed it to be pretty high.

          Backlight brightness - low
          Standby - disabled
          Raise to wake - low

          Notifications are on…only notifications from my phone are calls, texts, and doorbell camera alerts so…maybe 20 a day?

          Support just told me to charge to 100 and drain it fully 6 more times before advising to send it in…

            @stromdiddily ok. Let’s try what support told you. Have you checked if you didn’t activate main back light by error ?

              What’s the main backlight? Just verified all the settings I have posted

                  Guessing you’re meaning “standby”? In which case, that’s disabled

                      Oh my fault, literally just found it. Confirmed it’s off.
