@Chris_Dx I followed your procedure of cleaning with a soft brush after immersion and it worked for me as well. My barometer is accurate for the first time in 6+ months! It also does not drastically change altitude when wet. Thanks for being the one to try it first, I was a little hesitant to clean the sensor with a brush as I was not aware of how fragile the sensor was.

@isazi ok cool thank you for that info.

@Adam-Rykala 100% with you on those recommendations. I have a Verity Sense and a Scosche R2+ and have found both of them solid across all my activities. I’ve never trusted wrist-based OHR for anything other than general daily monitoring because I have bony wrists

@The_77 thanks for this interesting point of view it makes sense ! But that way, i’m not sure if it is good enough to mesure performance and load through time

@M2Oskie Same thing for me, my second hand has reverted to white as well.

@Egika polar verity sense is the answer. Much more comfortable than chest strap . Works very well with Vertical

@Bogdan1921 said in To buy, or not to buy a Race,that is the question: So after 5 years, I’ve replaced my old Suunto 9 Baro with Suunto Race. As a first feeling, the watch is looking really really nice. I was curious and I’ve ran 5km to see how it’s working and I’m really impresed by the screen. As a cons, I see the charger a little bit “cheap”, or, it give’s me the feeling that can be moved very easy from the pole of the magnets. I’m happy, thanks Suunto! [image: 1703142386493-unnamed.jpg] Enjoy! I came back to Suunto after leaving when the Ambit 2 (or may have been 3) came out and it didn’t have OHR whereas Garmin did. No regrets about moving away from the Epix Pro whatsoever.

@timecode thank you! but I’m not sure it works well in Italy. The partners are a bit weird like Moorwand. Did anyone in the forum use it in Italy?

Update from next activity: I have been out for a running activity again following almost the same route as before. In the meantime, a firmware update has been released and I performed the update. Additionally, I have followed the advise from Suunto website’s FAQ and replies in this post: performing a soft reset on the watch and making sure I have synced the watch with the phone before the activity. This time the GPS tracking was nearly spot on. I will keep checking in the coming activities to see how this progresses. Thank you all for the inputs.

@Arie-Rahmadi The distance of the Runn treadmill sensor is exact. You can use it with the standard calibration or calibrate it according to the distance of the treadmill.

@Albon running outside is not used anymore for calibration

@Mads-Hintz-Madsen thank you. I was wondering why my app was still syncing with airplane mode activated in control panel. This seems to still be the case on ver 2.40.38 software release.

@Mff73 yep, could be another workaround. But it need to be manually reactived after activity. Still just a workaround ^^

@Sta-Rydziad Constructive feedback promotes thought and conversation that can promote improvement. Your feedback is judgemental and frankly how you described the new watch faces,

@Olaf-Gottschalk this weekend up to now my son was sick so I had little time. This forum is a Suunto community forum as seen in the title. Its basically a “depot” for users to communicate with each other add feedback etc , which is monitored by me and others at Suunto , when needed. You will see that many moderators are just Fieldtesters or old forum users. These people have the connections to report issues and advice users here as they have more information available ie via Fieldtesting. Additionally there are some people here like me that monitor the threads , give feedback, user sentiment , create announcements and so on. For example me , Pavel and others. To cut a long story short: yes there are people here from Suunto that get logs , reports issues and post internally to suunto forum threads so Suunto can monitor the threads and act with fixes etc. Sometimes even developers pm those users if needed. The same can happen with oether Fieldtesters and so on. I hope it helps

@pilleus RunGap for iOS works well.

@Ronnarong-Wongmalasit you have an answer then. You have found the Zwift pod accuracy is poor. Your choice whether you use it outdoors or not,

Hey on the topic of always on mode. It was added in some last update but not working as expected (or maybe I’m not setting this up right). So in cycling mode I have display setting in always on + 3 options: off, display only, full awake mode. Non of it allows to have maps screen always on when watch on handlebar. So it’s working on any other screen in cycling mode BUT not maps. Make no sense as you can’t use the function as it’s described so always on. Any plans to change it I next software update. I use my suunto race mounted on handlebar and it’s useless when I want to use maps for direction…

@superweeble True VO2 can be only measured in the lab. Watches, calculators and formulas only give rough estimates: so you can see the trend not the real value.

@false said in SR Battery drain: After Wednesday’s training I rebooted my watch, so will see the result of this tomorrow, on Friday. Back to normal 1 - 2% a day (I don’t use my watch between training sessions) [image: 1728663779196-1000015727.jpg] [image: 1728663779274-1000015742.jpg]
