Suunto 9 Baro quick discharge problem

MiniForklift

@Brad_Olwin I’m on iOS. I sleep with it on but I do flick it onto DND before I go to sleep

Brad_Olwin

@MiniForklift I am wearing mine for awhile with everything turned on to get a comparison.

MiniForklift

@Brad_Olwin Interested to see the comparison…

@MiniForklift
Do you read the FB post link? And tried to “clean” baro sensor the best you can?

12h overnight I lost 9% of charge with the watch on my wrist, HR on, sleep tracking and AutoDnD for 7h.

@Brad_Olwin thanks for the tip regarding AutoDND. I did not realize that was a feature. I have subsequently enabled it and I will be curious is this changes battery life moving forward.

MiniForklift

@Mff73 Don’t think I need to clean the sensor as it’s a brand new watch, I’ve only had it a week or two

MiniForklift

@Brad_Olwin Yep pretty similar to mine then

@MiniForklift I don’t think you’ve got any problems with your watch. You could get to 6/7 days having all tracking enabled if you don’t do activities, but with activities you achieve less.

MiniForklift

@isazi Yep, I agree

Brad_Olwin

@MiniForklift After 36h, one run (1.75h) and Pilates (~1h) sleep two nights, HR24/7 I am down about 25%. I keep my backlight very low 30% and don’t use it often. The backlight is probably one of the biggest battery life hogs.

@isazi Hi, calibration doesn’t help, I made soft and hard reset and using the watch with factory settings I have ~ 3% of battery consumption per hour

@Jenya-Obolonskiy I think you should contact Suunto’s support.

Jenya Obolonskiy

@isazi how I can contact support?

isazi

@Jenya-Obolonskiy it’s on the website, or even through the Suunto App, in the “other” section of the “settings” tab.

I had the same issue. Soft and hard resets didn’t work. I took it overseas for two months in the hopes that a software update was the issue, and that it would work itself out. When I got home, I sent it in and received a brand new watch. No issues. I know I am a little late to the party here, but I would send it in for “repairs” if you have yet. Hopefully it is resolved by now…

MiniForklift

I would definitely get in touch with support so you can a resolution.
I had the same issue with a previous S9 of mine, battery was draining really fast. I took it into the store I purchased it from, they sent it away to Suunto NZ to test and they came back saying that they had found a non-repairable issue. I was offered a refund or a straight swap, problem was all sorted within a week

hey guys, does anyone solved the battery drainage without sending the watch back for support? I have my S9B the eats 4% at hour with no HR no SleepTrackin … no nothing! just time -.-‘’
Can I try something out aside from the soft/hard reset?

Buy those cheap usb mAh recorders
Reset Usb recorder to zero mAh
Empty you watch battery until is black
Charge using usb (see note 1)
Record mAh once charge reaches 99%
If your mAh is around 250, you have a good battery but a drain due to water or a bad board,send it to service
If your mAh is way less than 250, you have a bad battery, send it to service

… so maybe … contact support and ask them. Maybe it’s defective and you need to return it.
