      Can we have a thread on the best ways to prolong the already excellent battery life in the vertical.

      Does anyone know which watch face uses least battery?

      Some of the settings I have personally changed for battery include

      . All backlights off, standby backlight off (not sure what this one is)
      . Wrist turn light off
      .pulse ox off
      .notifications off
      . Aeroplane mode on most of time unless wanting to sync
      .no music
      . I have 24/7 hr but I want this for my data

      Any other settings that I might be missing re battery life ? I like mostly minimalist approach.

        @gone-troppo I think the “Power saving” option covers it all in one switch.I think you activated the biggest battery drainer in watch mode however: 24/7 hr monitoring

          I think so, too. I recall in the beginning with S9B, I wanted max battery life and avoided everything that consumed battery… but what for? the watches charge so fast, especially the new ones. I prefer to have the functions over some battery saving

            Yes power saving mode unfortunately turns off hr, hr is needed for me to get my 24/7 metrics otherwise I would have just kept using ambit

              I also use hr tracking mesurement h24 : battery consumption is very low compared to S9b. Max 2% a day (knowing that I have backlight at minimum, wrist raise to « light », standby off, no spo2 mesurement, phone notifications off)
              @freeheeler totally agree with you => once the main settings that consume the most battery done, battery life of the Vertical is so huge that there is no worry anymore about « will I have enough power ?! »

                …that moment when you search your charging cable and can’t remember when or where you put it last time 😂

                    Found a backup solution in this case : left my wife’s S9pp charging cable in its box as spare 😀
                    Or pray for sunny day !
