Winter swimming
-
Hi,
people who swim in winter - what sports mode do you use and what applications? When I get out of the water, it keeps showing me 3’C in the application on my phone, and I stopped training in the water on purpose so that the thermometer wouldn’t heat up when I got out of the water - In water showing me 1’C.Also how many Suunto Aps I can have turn on in one time? I can’t choose more than 2…
-
@karmazynowycukiereczek For the latter question, only 2.
-
@Brad_Olwin ok…
Do you know why it’s 1’C on my watch, I’m saves my water training, and the application on my phone always shows me +2’C? Is this some known bug? Is it possible to edit the temperature in the application?
Also does this thermometer in watch can show temps below 0’C?

@karmazynowycukiereczek
I use open water swimming but no specific apps.
my guess is that the shown temperature is the average.
if you put your watch into the water 2-3min before you enter the water and start the activity you will most likely avoid the cooling curve as shown below and hence have the results you’re expecting. -
@freeheeler Yes, I just noticed it while analyzing the temperature chart - it must be average, because when I undress it is about 20-17 degrees, when I enter the water there is a significant drop to 5 degrees, and then at the end, when I leave, the correct temperature is 1 degree - today I was there for about 10 minutes and I was surprised that it showed 3 degrees in APP…
I have a question, maybe you checked it - the thermometer can show temperatures below 0 degrees?

@karmazynowycukiereczek
water at below zero?!
I’m checking now and will update this answer once the result is readyit shows below zero at the activity’s summary (-4°C in my case) but since I’ve had the watch on my wrist in the warm caravan, before throwing it out in the snow, the initial temperature was too high and the avg is still positive. since it is a calculation, I would be surprised if negative avg wasn’t possible.

that was general question - for examle i have Xiaomi Termometr that cant show temps below 0

of course the watch can measure and show negative temperatures.
