      Charge your watch to 100% then waiting it drops to 0 untill you can only see the empty battery icon all over the screen and charge again to 100%.

        you can find previous firmware here. download the one you want and pull it in SuuntoLink.
        Battery calibration sometimes goes weird, but what you describe is clearly not normal. my watch works the same as before the upgrade

          My watch I sent to unofficial service for diagnostic. There isn’t official service in my region and watch warranty ended.

            @zhang965 Did that for 5 times in a row, as recommended by Suunto support, no improvement

              I know, it’s…the last secours… personally the battery is getting lower capacity after 2years

                @freeheeler thank you very much for sharing. I couldn’t find the 2.20.30 release, which is the second latest. Any idea where to get this one?

                    @zhang965 It would be fine if the battery capacity would go down by 5-10% after a certain time. But degreasing directly after the update by >80% is not ok.

                              any trick how to install the “older” firmware? I’ve dragged and dropped the .zip file content to Suuntolink and connected the watch. It shows still the latest firmware. Does it need to be a Windows device?

                                      @zhang965 I´ll check in a couple hours or latest tomorrow how fast the capacity will go down.

                                        After 12h and battery save mode the capacity went from 100% to 10%. So, the firmware downgrade didn’t help 😞

                                            @freeheeler not even 2 years, bought it in April 2021.
                                            I’ve contacted Suunto support, they suggesting to sent the watch for an inspection. I guess it will turn out in a costly repair.
