Race 2 daily use battery life
-
All, does anyone have more info (or a review with more info) on the daily use battery life of the Race 2? Specifically with AOD, daily HR, notifications etc. and 1-1.5 hours of exercise tracking (gps + hr). With my Race S I get +/- 3.5 days, so with the Race 2 I should get 7 days?
-
@Jan-Van-de-Velde maybe this will not help you because my use case is different but…
- AOD OFF
- Notifications OFF
- 24/7 OHR OFF
- Sleep Track OFF
- 4h GPS activity per week
- 1h no-GPS activity per week
I am getting around 17-18 days of battery.
-
For me:
AOD OFF
Notifications ON
24/7 OHR ON
Sleep Track ONI think it was 12-15 days last time (not 100% sure when i charged it). I had like 15% left.
Weeks before same settings + 3h of GPS excercise (half of excercise with AOD) it lasted 9 days and i had 33% when connecting to charger again.

@Tomas5 said in Race 2 daily use battery life:
not 100% sure when i charged it
This is the best proof to me that battery life is huge !
-
@Tieutieu or i just have bad memory
-
@Tomas5 I have also bad memory considering my SV last charge. But I remember well about my SRs. 🤪
-
@Tieutieu i wrote down time of last charging. Now it is exactly 7 days and battery is 52%. I had just 1h40m of gps excercise and 1h of non gps excercise. All tracking enabled. AOD off. So it is very good.

Hi,
My settings:
AOD OFF
Notifications ON
24/7 OHR ON
Sleep Track ON
Last charge at 100% : Thrusday 16th afternoon.
Friday 17th: 10 hours trail running race with navigation on the screen
Tuesday 21th: 1 hour running activity (GPS + HR)
Thursday 23rd: 1 hour running activity (GPS + HR)
Battery is currently 56%.
If I compare with my Fenix 8 Amoled, I would say Suunto battery life in better in activity with GPS but less impressive in day to day (smartwatch) usage. -
So today charging again after 11 days.

AOD off
All tracking and notifications enabled -
@Jan-Van-de-Velde With AOD it’s about 7 days, I guess when you use every day the GPS maybe 6 days.
-
@Tomas5 mine looks very similar. I log on average 30-45min gps a day. AOD off, lowest brightness and raise to wake display only
-
@jannis thanks for the input. I bought a Race 2 about two weeks ago. Battery life with everything on (AOD, 24HR, blood oxygen measurement, sleep tracking, notifications, etc.) and 10hr of GPS exercise per week is about 6 days. I was hoping for a bit more, but I’m generally happy with that.
-
@Jan-Van-de-Velde With all those settings, on thats quite good comparatively speaking with the competition.
-
After the update, however, it has become much better.

keine Probleme… 10% Pro Tag… inkl 1h GPS Running und Sleeptrack inkl HRV
