      I have read in dcrainmaker’s pre-review that 24/7 HR tracking is significant load for battery - approx. 3 % per hour. Has anyone else noticed such behaviour? Is this normal or temporary problem due to beta software and will be fixed later with updates?

        @dulko79 from what I know is “expected” behavior which also happens on other models too. Continuous heart rate readings requires a lot of battery power, as does sleep monitoring. Maybe there will be more reliable information soon

          @dulko79 I have a SST and I think that he said the same. However I can confirm that I have never experienced such battery consumption.

                          I bought my girlfriend a s5 and after a fews runs i am a bit confused because the ascent recorded by the watch is about 50% of the real ascent. I use the ssu. I know s5 has no baro but at least it should record the GPS ascent which is about the same i her from the ssu. Is this a known issue?

                            Have you tried a full vertical track, without d- ?
                            Going from 300m to 800m should results 500d+, in S5 and also in SSU.

                            In tracks where there are many up and down you will not have the same results because GPS device store d+ only each 7m gained, BARO device each 3m.

                            btw, 50% less is too much…

                              @whl_89 Same here with SSSW (no baro). Are ascend step sort? Usually in my 10-15k run with +400m always have less than +200m

                              😞

                                @Saketo-Nemo i just made two runs with ups and downs but both around 50% of actual ascent. I mean i am aware of the non existing baro in s5 but this huge differences are really bad for a 300€ device

                                  @suzzlo mixed ascents but shouldnt there bei an algorithm to overcome those recording gaps within those 7m?

                                          Out of curiosity, I wanted to see the altitude diference, so I imported both to QS:

                                          S5:

                                          suunto 5.jpg

                                          SSU:

                                          SSU.jpg

                                          Both have similar graph shape and are in similar altitude ranges, but SSU seems a bit jagged compared to the S5 which looks smooth. Not sure which one is correct. But I’m guessing that SSU has more altitude difference because all those small spikes, also bigger drops in altitude on multiple places.
