Bug: power meter loses connection in activity

@nseslija I do understand. Gee, what’s wrong with you people always being so aggressive here. Let’s discuss functions, bugs and Suunto stuff here - what is wrong with you when you just post to annoy others?
-
@OutdoorMan thanks for your support. I really would love not to be forced to think about the watch I’m using.
-
@Olaf-Gottschalk don’t worry, I understand your frustration. Looking at the amount of crashes you had I would already return or sell the watch.

Believe it or not… I had Polar for many years and that last watch I had crashed almost on a weekly basis. So I am glad to be away from Polar. Garmin, I don’t like them at all.
So Suunto was my choice and I was actually really happy that almost all of my initial problems regarding the Race (missing features) have been fixed in the 2 years I’ve had the device.So, I was actually almost about to buy the Race 2. But since I highly doubt that the new watch does not crash… I am hesitating now…

@Olaf-Gottschalk Honestly I would send it to service, and if comes back with no issues, I would send it again, and again. This feels like a faulty piece of hardware … although I am not an expert. I did that once and the watch was back in less than a week.

The problem is: I am not willing to go without a watch. Not a single day. If Suunto offered a replacement for direct exchange, no problem. Otherwise I would have to buy a brand new watch on Amazon and return it. It’s just a pain.

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos and again. Fourth time this week. Zero power after a short coffee break.
So, since the latest update on the BT stack produced this problem out of nowhere, it MUST be a bug.
I used the very same pedals (and they did not receive any firmware update in years!) since I got the Race.
The only thing that changed is the Race firmware, specifically the BT management.I was VERY HAPPY at first as this latest update finally enables me to pair more than one sensor of that kind, but this bug is driving me completely crazy.
If I didn’t have the Wahoo, almost all of my rides would need multiple starts and thus multiple sessions.
It’s simply annoying and must be fixed on Suunto side.I don’t know how to put this, for me the device is now broken. Broken by firmware updates.

That’s kind of interesting. Is there anything that ties the behaviour between the two watches together? I have a Garmin 955, a Polar V3 and a Suunto Race and I’ve never had a crash in any of them? Could there be some commonality for your use case?
