Battery and navigation

@activejiggy thanks

@lesley-mackenzie ah I see - thanks for sharing your experience. I have no idea if that’s true but I would assume, that tracking would not have used up those remaining 60%.

@chrisa I did extensive testing with a preproduction watch, as I stated below, on two long events I had 21h and 24h, respectively for predicted battery life. One was a long backcountry ski and the other a long run, both on Performance mode with OHR running.

@brad_olwin thanks that’s awesome. Will have a longer hike in August (around 12h) so everything should be fine .

Using GPS and heart rate for your trip should probably use about 50% of the battery with the other power saving mode enabled.
I use power saving mode and airplane mode when just wearing the watch, you’ll need to turn them off to sync.
