@t-Dox said in Battery drain:
it’s just an idea that came to me after a hard reset

Good idea

hi, i hadn’t read the posts you linked. Yes i didn’t mean that my idea was brilliant and original. it’s simply something i thought like probably many other users and that it’s right to share with the support so that it is considered useful and to be developed…

24 hours now with the update. Due to injury I only had a short one mile walk last evening with GPS and external HRM. Only 2% loss in 24 hours.

@larrybbaker How do you get that kind of battery life!? I’m down 7 percent in the last 4 hours (with one 30 minute activity)

24/7 HR is on, notifications off

@artersull just to clarify - this is not my daily wear watch - so at the moment 24/7 HR is off, no notifications. But - I was seeing more battery drain before the update - even with the watch at rest.

So 3 days into the update - only 1hr and 48 min of activity. 2 walks using GPS and external HRM and a 50min gym activity and I am still sitting at 96% battery. We may have a winner here. Again for me this is not a daily wear watch and my daily running is on hold due to injury - but the loss of battery at rest seems WAY improved!

@larrybbaker But, yours is a solar. It could be charging while it is not in use. No?

@Outdoorsy no - it sits on my desk or nightstand.

I’m noticing that my battery is draining quite a bit faster after this update, I noticed it because I haven’t been training as much as normal but it’s gone down more than it usually would. In the last 24 hours it’s dropped 10% with no training

Today I ran 25 km / 2h20m and my battery went from 53% to 38%
With the same settings, a few weeks ago I ran 26 km / 2h22m and it went from 56% to 51%

Matúš

@Francesco-Pagano, same behaviour here: yesterday I rode for about 2[h] and the battery dropped from 35% to 18%.

@Matúš @Francesco-Pagano But you are talking about 9PP - if I understand your signature right.
Just because this thread is about the vertical and its not easy too compare these…
