Battery drain
-
My personal update, nothing official, is that two possible causes have been identified. I have not tested a fix yet, but Suunto is aware that this needs to be fixed with next release.

@isazi said in Battery drain:
My personal workaround while we wait for a fix is: if you use navigation just reboot your watch at the end, after syncing the activity with your phone.
This is my personal view, nothing from Suunto
I managed to send logs to Suunto and hope a fix for this will be included in the next firmware. I also believe it is not the GPS but the storage that is kept active, GPS would give an even larger battery consumption. No confirmation from Suunto yet. I try to keep the forum informed as much as I can
I have checked your workaround, seems same for me:
- indeed after an activity with maps and navigation the battery usage is ~9% for 16h
- reboot (turn off in parameter and long press on upper button)
- battery usage is ~2% for 16h
- activity without navigation
- battery usage is still ~2% for 16h
I hope it will be solved very soon as one main advantage of Suunto Vertical watch is autonomy…

After 17 days without battery drain problem (full charged august 14th, 13% battery level 31th august and full charged again) this past night SV battery level has lowered by 10%-12% without use.
Yesterday evening I exchanged watches and I have slept with SR S again… (I was wearing SV full time since august 14th). My last activity with SV was on sunday morning and I didn’t use navigation (hiking with ‘Weather’ S+ App), so it seems battery drain has several faces… -
A fix is being tested, if everything works out should be here in a week or two.

@isazi omg, the wait is endless
-
@isazi so, it was massive the problem and not for some cases after last update!
by the way great news!! -
@gerasimos not massive, but there were various causes for the drain, all dependent on user behavior. Meaning, users using certain features would see the drain, others not using them not.

@isazi I am always this ‘user’ doing all the wrong stuff
Not sure though, since I literaly have the same settings and sport use on both the Race and Vertical only different watchfaces. The Race is not showing bat drain the vertical after sport dies in 3 days Suunto watches: Ocean, Race, Vertical (Titanium Solar Sand), 9 Baro (Ambassador Edition), Spartan Ultra (Copper Edition), Ambit 2, S6

@EzioAuditore not a matter of right vs. wrong, just a matter of features used

My Vertical have a daily battery consumption of 10-12% with no activities recorded.
My battery drainage is back again.Did charge my watch 2100 to 100% on Sunday, and now Tuesday it’s 80%.
-
@Iggge you should do a soft reset
-
@Iggge Same here. Charged mine to 100% 24 hrs ago and it is down at 91%. No activity. Just normal wear. I think it may have to do with the Android app since I am still on the 2.33.16 version. App was updated Aug 21 (4.97.7).
Just saw there is another update for the app. I will update and monitor the issue.

Definitely not related to android or iOS app as I have the latest iOS and experience drains as well . 9% yesterday in 14 hours also without training , just normal wear

Hello, have you tested with last fw update (->navigation issue trigger) ? It seems that there are some fixes in update of yesterday (but not 100% if i well understood…

Last night 14% battery lost without use.
I’ll try to update to latest software, I updated Race S yesterday.
Now SV battery lasts similar than Race S, around a week…
