    The issue with battery drain isn’t universal. If people have an issue they are more likely to post. My experience is the battery is better than expected. I’m getting around 9 days, approx 12 hours GPS a week and 4 hours indoors. AOD and notifications. No 24 hour HR or sleep tracking. I used to get around 2 weeks with the V1 between charging with similar activities.

    @Derrick-Spafford nothing is lost, you activities should progressively load You can check on Sports Tracker (log with same id/password than you Suunto account), and you’ll see that all your history is there. In SA it sometimes takes few minutes to load (but usually not more than few minutes).

    @Inge-Nallsson Are you sure about the 1.1mm size of the spring bars? I’ve measure the original strap’s bars and my digital caliper (not sure abount its precision) gave me 1.0mm. Do you choose 1.1mm bars intentionally thicker?

    I’ve been buying watches since the Spartan, and I always said to myself the heart rates will get more accurate, but again and again I get proven wrong. Today I had a running test where they used another brand while I was wearing my watch (RACE), and my Suunto’s heart rate was always off, sometimes even by 30 beats. On most other occasions I have a feeling that the watch always needs to warm up. Like, it will go crazy for the first 10 min and then give more reliable heart rates. I’m at a point that I just start doubting that it will ever be on point. What can I do besides rebooting, which I already did several times? Should I skip OHR and only use the belt, which actually defeats the purpose of having an OHR watch? Should I upgrade to RACE 2, as it has a new heart rate monitor? But you understand that I’m not eager to upgrade again, as I kept having the same issues.

    @kurtpenter thanks but no dice… I did reply to that thread as it looks like something I’ve experienced also Today’s easy run and I’m still getting wrist power. I guess I’ll try to unpair and re-pair the pod with the watch. Annoying! And Race 2 prices even second hand are too steep for me to try switching to newer watch. This issue was tolerable for a few months. It’s just this week it seems to be persistent instead of “once every few weeks”.

    @quentinho Nope, this experience is foreign to me. My watch never sleeps during a workout. So on my 9PP it’s enough to single-tap for a lap or pause.

    Received feedback from the support team. They tell me that the Peak Pro is no longer manufactured, nor that they have the parts to repair it. Not sure why they talk about parts, as to me, the issue had nothing to do with “mechanics” (but hey I’m not a techncian). Their position is “we can maybe fix it, but a cost that wouldn’t be relevant to you”, so instead, they offer to me a replacement with another device. With an incredible discount of 10€ !!! Quite interstingly, the Peak Pro is one of the models they’re offering in this deal of the century. Yes. The same model that is not manufactured anymore and for which they have no spare parts if there’s an issue. Just bought a new Sports2. But with a “I give these guys one last chance, before I move to G” approach, as I’m pretty pi**ed off, the failure happened after a failed update (according to me, but once again, I’m no Suunto technicain), 2 weeks after the warranty expired, and by the fact that the support is putting me in a position where I have no other option that to buy a new device. Aren’t they clamining they are a sustainable company? “Repairability” is the basis of being sustainable, especially for a device that was first realseased less than 3 years ago. Or is the image they want to give some sort of green-washing. Anyways…

    Hello, today we noticed this issue on my wifes 5 Peak. Unfortunatelly it has already 2.5 year so it is not under warranty anymore. And she is light user, and not wearing it while washing dishes, showering, sleeping etc. Only around 9hours a day during working days only and then while cycling/hiking but thats few times a month.

    @scafroglia93 a dedicated step mode might be a bit too specific, but maybe a step (stairsteps) counter as an S+ app would do it if you could activate it in your preferred “gym” mode?

    @Durri definitely not necessary. While I am not really sure if you off-time sleeps will be handled as sleeping or napping, just leave it on and let it do it’s thing. Then we like to hear about your experience!

    Yes, regardless of the language, it would be really cool (and useful) to use a color code for end/save - continue - pause - discard our activities.

    @isazi ok thanks for your feedback. So I guess it’s more accurate then when there are « few » sections » with big elevations than on routes with lot of sections and few elevation. (By the way I realize that the exemple I’ve taken was not good => in mountains I experimented that it was working pretty well)

    Orthostatic test would be great. I’ve bought the polar only for that test and for me it is the best tool for analyzing potential overtraining so far

    @far-blue said in [UPDATE] Disable notification ONLY during trainings: Just to add to this (which I also noticed), When DND is on it also silences all alerts for structured workouts. This isn’t a very helpful or expected behaviour so can DND mode when in an activity please allow actual activity alerts to still, um, alert? Yes, that is a bug in my opinion. It needs to disable system notifications for the duration of the activity while allowing activity related alerts (Guides, + Apps, etc.)
  • How does FusedPace react to there being a foot pod

    Ok, I’ve been experimenting and this is what I’ve found so far. Firstly, it seems clear to me that the behaviour of the watch’s presentation of pace changes when a stryd pod is used so I’m pretty sure the pace data is used and is used in preference to in-watch fusedspeed data. When I use the stryd pod, pace appears to be updated pretty consistently every 2 seconds or so. I actually think Suunto could do some work to tune this to improve it because my iPhone app (iSmoothRun) can update every second but that’s an aside. When the stryd is paired, no level of mucking about with gps or holding my arm to see the watch for extended periods makes any difference so I’m going to say when a stryd is paired fusedspeed isn’t used and pace comes from the stryd, not gps. When not using the stryd pod I can def. create scenarios where I can tell the difference. With a recently sync’d watch, over 20% battery, performance level gps and a solid gps signal I actually think the watch updates pace faster than when using the stryd. However, not sync’ing before a run, having less than 20% battery and running deliberately where I know the GPS signal is weaker (under trees, along canals etc) the pace update rate drops significantly. Here it seems to update every 5 or so seconds and is also more likely to react to a slowing of pace than an acceleration. I’m guessing this is the frusedspeed stuff kicking in. If I go further to ‘break’ the fusedspeed capability by holding my wrist up to view my watch continuously (therefore preventing the accelerometer from doing it’s job) then in a poor signal area the pace can easily freeze for 20 seconds or more until GPS catches up. So my conclusion is that the watch adopts behaviour 1 from my original post. As a result I’m not going to be retiring my Stryd any time soon And as a PS maybe Suunto could improve the refresh rate for pace and power from the stryd to every second I’d be interested to hear if other people have different experiences

    @fritzbt2013 I can confirm that it is the least used custom activity that gets deleted. I recently got back to using my Vertical and had 4 custom activities (only). I noted which one was at the top on the watch (the least used). I then performed the update, and it was gone, and I was down to 3 activities. I’ll continue to keep track of this, but it’s pretty easy to reproduce the problem and I would think Suunto could solved this fairly easily (if there is a good way to submit the issue where it might get some traction). For now, I’ve added ‘Stretching’ to both my watches and will (easily) make sure it will be the least used activity as a workaround to the problem.

    @stromdiddily The watch will use HR but the other values can affect the TP calculations from what I have seen. See if this helps.
