      Hi All
      Was any solution for quick discharge found?
      I got a very similar problem after I forgot to charge my watch and they were discharged to 0%
      Now after charging they discharging very quickly (~2% per hour, 2-day max battery life without any activities)
      I tried the next solution

      1. Soft reset
      2. Factory reset
      3. I disable Sleep monitoring and daily HR monitoring
      4. I turn on flight mode
        In all cases, battery life was almost the same from 40 to 45 hours

      Is any way to figure what is going on?
      Thanks

        @Jenya-Obolonskiy maybe battery got uncalibrated? Try to charge it to 100% and leave it there for a while after. Try to see if the watch turns off at 0% or not. And if nothing works, contact support.

            From my S9 Baro:
            In 4 days the battery was totaly drain. Without any activity. Backlight 35% and everything on(sleep, 24/7 tracking, notification). When I’ve brought this watch, Suunto said that the 24/7 tracking and notification = 7 days. And why now we are trying to: disable this, and this and this? When normally, the watch should last 7 days? Ok, I can understand if there are 6 days. But when are 4 days (almost half of 7), I’m sorry but something is weird…
            I’ve brought this watch 1 year and 5 months ago…

            Best,
            Bogdan

                I have a brand new S9 Baro, one of the gold/leather ones. With around 60-90mins of training each day (GPS on but HR off) I get around 4 days off a full charge. I do have sleep tracking, daily HR and mobile notifications on but yeah, would’ve thought I’d be able to get a bit longer than this. That said, the battery consumption during exercise seems to be pretty good; it’s the daily use where it falls the fastest.
                I recently upgraded from a COROS Apex 46mm and I could get close to 10 days from that watch before it needed charging.

                  @MiniForklift This may be about right, the 24/7 HR and sleep tracking together cause a fair bit of drain. Are you on Android or iOS? I typically do not sleep with my S9 as it is kinda big. Do you enable auto DnD when sleeping?

                    I read on FB Run Iq, someone with same issue, and he has solved it with a serious baro sensor cleaning.
                    Not explained clearly there, but maybe the sensor is over busied when too dirty.
                    Worth a try to confirm, isn’t it?
                    Will give the link if I find it, but FB is not a forum, and hard to find stuff again.

                        @Mff73 To support your link, i would only copy the Dimitrios’s message In our forum mentioned n the FB.

                        There is a problem with your barometer.
                        Either it had water either it’s dirty either it’s faulty.
                        Soak the watch into lukewarm water.
                        Flush under the tap with water the pressure holes
                        Repeat x3
                        Also might help using a baby tooth brush and gently cleaning those holes on the watch.

                          @Brad_Olwin I’m on iOS. I sleep with it on but I do flick it onto DND before I go to sleep

                                Do you read the FB post link? And tried to “clean” baro sensor the best you can?

                                  12h overnight I lost 9% of charge with the watch on my wrist, HR on, sleep tracking and AutoDnD for 7h.

                                    @Brad_Olwin thanks for the tip regarding AutoDND. I did not realize that was a feature. I have subsequently enabled it and I will be curious is this changes battery life moving forward.

                                      @Mff73 Don’t think I need to clean the sensor as it’s a brand new watch, I’ve only had it a week or two

                                          @MiniForklift I don’t think you’ve got any problems with your watch. You could get to 6/7 days having all tracking enabled if you don’t do activities, but with activities you achieve less.
