Suunto race problème de batterie

Pierre Matelski

Bonjour,

Ma batterie se vide très rapidement à partir du moment ou elle atteint 30%.

Je n’ai rien changé à ma config.

Est-ce un problème de batterie ou de logiciel?

Merci d’avance

@Pierre-Matelski
I have the exact same problem. Within 30minutes my battery can go from 35% to 10%.

I’ve also had issues with battery drain for 6+months, and it feels like the battery is draining as quickly in standby mode as it does in a full GPS activity. It now needs charging every 2/3 days.

@Pierre-Matelski If you want the battery to last as long as possible during everyday use (outside of workouts), make these adjustments in the Settings menu:

Display > Always-on: Turn this option off. Let the screen wake only when you look at the watch.
Display > Brightness: Set it to Auto or reduce it to Low.
Connectivity > Media Controls: Turn this off if you don’t usually control music playing on your iPhone from the watch, as it keeps Bluetooth active and uses more battery.
Backlight with Button Press: Turn this feature on so the backlight only comes on when you press a button, preventing the display from lighting up by itself at night while you’re in bed.

Même chose pour moi. Il y a 6 mois, ma batterie tenait plus de 2 semaines avec environ 5-6h d’activité gps. J’avais déjà optimisé pas mal de truc pour qu’elle tienne le plus possible (pas de FC H24, pas de raise to wake, pas de suivi de sommeil).

Désormais je suis à moins de 2 semaines et je passe de 30 à 10% en 2 jours. Ça reste convenable car j’ai tout optimisé, mais si j’utilisais toutes les fonctionnalités, je serais à moins d’une semaine.

Je me demande aussi si ça ne vient pas de la grosse MAJ qu’il y a eu après la sortie de la Race 2.

@Geoffwilli I can also confirm I have this issue. Charged my watch fully on Saturday, went for a long bike ride (3.5 hours). Battery was at 50% after (which was unusually low). I’ve woken up this morning and the battery is at 20%

@Steven-Limmer Charge until full and then do a Soft Reset. For me this solves this. Needs to be done after each charging … I hope it’s fixed in the next FW update

Same here. Since installing v. 2.53.42, I have a much shorter battery life than before, especially when the battery SoC is below 40%. You can then watch the battery deplete at about 1% per hour. Even with only sporadic usage in activities, I’m down to 4 days max. until I need to recharge. Before v. 2.53.42, I got more than a week of battery life easily. Looks like a bug in the firmware to me.

@johann.fuehrer I’ve done this twice. It seems to slow the drain down, but it’s still bad. I’m getting about 2 days max

@Steven-Limmer That’s strange … can you check in connections if Wireless Network is turned of, this is a huge battery burner. Do you have “Always On Display” enabled. I have also lowest brightness level (which is still to bright for me, even on daylight).

Did you report the problem at suunto support? Without knowing Suunto isn’t fixing anything in some future firmware (that is, if there will be a new firmware for the race).

I reposted a nightly battery drain once for my race s. Most of the time, with my ussage, I get 3 to 5 days max out of oled watches. (Oled is a lousy technique for hardcore sportwatches. My last mips watch lasted initially 2 weeks with about the same usage).
Have to say, I didn’t do any follow up on the battery issue. I have a bigger issue with Bluetooth that I want Suunto to fix. If there will be a new firmware update for my race s, that is.

@elbee I did right now, but as I have seen that this topic is around for some years on different watches and also on the V2 I assumed this was already reported.(never assume someone did it, just do it by yourself - I forgot about this all overall known wisdom). So let’s see…
