Battery drain

Antoine Lancrenon

soft reboot (stop and start the watch basically) didnt work for me.

i had to reset the watch, you need at least 40% of battery, and it takes 10 minutes to do.

than youll have to set all the parameters into the watch again (like it was brand new from the store)
youll loose your maps installed etc…

check your display setting: britness to law or medium, standby to off, raise to wake to low or off for me.

it did work for me. ill have to diagnose the watch after several days, but at least in the last 14 hours, i have only lost 1% with a 40 minutes activity gps tracking, seems ok to me now!

Same problem after last big update!

Same problem after last big update!
In 10 days without any activities…all daily gimmicks off - backlight off - wifi/Bluetooth off etc.

Ill try a soft reset and one or two 0-100% charge to recalibrate software battery after Q2

Next step but i want to avoid hard reset.

@MeazzaS9 @Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos maybe have better feedback for this problem.

Antoine Lancrenon

is it possible that the (in connectivity in the watch)
wireless network and discovery options.could impact the battery drainage?

Once i have downloaded my offline maps, i have set to off the wifi and turn off the discovery, as my watch is already paired with my phone.

I will test and let you know. i am saying that, is that as soon I have reactivate the wifi from the app to the watch, i noticed the battery being drained again 4% a day or even more. I should be more around 1-2% a day.

ok, then can you try to reset the watch and give it a try?

Tengo el suunto vertical solar, los dias despues de la nueva actualizacion me gastaba 10% de bateria al dia, reinicie y cargue hasta el 96% y parece ser que problema solucionado, pero le dio el sol 30 minutos y cargo hasta el 100% cuando antes no hacia eso, alguien puede decirme si le ocurre lo mismo?

@thanasis next step hard reset

Hi, from the last update I have seen the some problem.

Two day ago I have charged at 100% my SV and at the some time at the next day (24 h with night monitoring) my SV was at 90%: 10% off in one day without any sport activity

Yesterday I have made soft reset … I let you know about evolution.

gerasimos

@matteo_000 maybe some experts here like @isazi @pavel-samokha have better feedback with that problem

I think after soft reset and a full charge cycle i have better results.
Let’s see

Check out an turn off backlight standby, wifi, Bluetooth in daily use

Following the topic. No problems on my SR after the update but a friend of mine with SV does have some battery drain after updating. What should I advise him? He already did the reboot by holding the upper button, switching off the pulseOX, brightness on low etc. Still draining more than he was used to see prior the update.

Même problème chute de la batterie depuis la dernière mise à jour j’ai réinitialiser la montre depuis aucun problème

Michaël POINTEAU

@ggrego same here. In 3hrs doing nothing drop from 20% to 16%…

Have been seeing same here on my watch. For first time since I bought the watch did have to charge my watch two times in a week.

Monday I did charge it to 100%.
Today is was 42% with just one use during training(30 min running)

MeazzaS9

Recharged the watch on July 9th to 100% and after doing a soft reset (first time with the new software). Since that day he has consumed very little, 1% per day (I only wear it for training) and 1% for 1 hour of running training. Today I did 3 hours of Trail running with a map and itinerary not always selected and it left me ONLY 5% very happy. Once I get home I put it on airplane mode and after two hours I find it at 86%!!! Something wrong. I had already seen this anomalous consumption with version 2.33.14 Do you know if Suunto knows about the problem and is working on it? With vertical battery is a reason of choice for the user.

Dimitrios Kanellopoulos

Hi guys. Let it discharge and do a full circle charge.

MeazzaS9

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos is it the permanent solution?

Ars Vitae

I can only confirm from my side that my Vertical after the new update consumes the battery literally three times faster than before. A short circuit exercise used to be only 1% of battery, now 3%, a 35 minute run used to be 3% now over 10%. I have the same GPS settings, all others as well. I’m not sure the new changes were necessary enough to undermine one of this watch’s most important features…
