@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
-
@Brad_Olwin Yep pretty similar to mine then
-
@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.
-
@isazi Yep, I agree
-
@MiniForklift After 36h, one run (1.75h) and Pilates (~1h) sleep two nights, HR24/7 I am down about 25%. I keep my backlight very low 30% and don’t use it often. The backlight is probably one of the biggest battery life hogs.
-
@isazi Hi, calibration doesn’t help, I made soft and hard reset and using the watch with factory settings I have ~ 3% of battery consumption per hour
-
@Jenya-Obolonskiy I think you should contact Suunto’s support.
-
@isazi how I can contact support?
-
@Jenya-Obolonskiy it’s on the website, or even through the Suunto App, in the “other” section of the “settings” tab.

I had the same issue. Soft and hard resets didn’t work. I took it overseas for two months in the hopes that a software update was the issue, and that it would work itself out. When I got home, I sent it in and received a brand new watch. No issues. I know I am a little late to the party here, but I would send it in for “repairs” if you have yet. Hopefully it is resolved by now…
-
I would definitely get in touch with support so you can a resolution.
I had the same issue with a previous S9 of mine, battery was draining really fast. I took it into the store I purchased it from, they sent it away to Suunto NZ to test and they came back saying that they had found a non-repairable issue. I was offered a refund or a straight swap, problem was all sorted within a week -
hey guys, does anyone solved the battery drainage without sending the watch back for support? I have my S9B the eats 4% at hour with no HR no SleepTrackin … no nothing! just time -.-‘’
Can I try something out aside from the soft/hard reset? -

Can I try something out aside from the soft/hard reset?- Buy those cheap usb mAh recorders
- Reset Usb recorder to zero mAh
- Empty you watch battery until is black
- Charge using usb (see note 1)
- Record mAh once charge reaches 99%
- If your mAh is around 250, you have a good battery but a drain due to water or a bad board,send it to service
- If your mAh is way less than 250, you have a bad battery, send it to service
-
… so maybe … contact support and ask them. Maybe it’s defective and you need to return it.
-
Too early to draw any conclusion, but I noticed similar behaviour with my S9. Mine is 1.5 years old now and the last couple of weeks I noticed that watch drain battery faster than it did before.
When I bought the watch I could almost do 12-14 days on a single charge with notifications on and a couple of hours of activity recording.
Now I can barely reach 7-8 days on a single charge with the same settings.Due to a lot of factors and the fact that I didn’t record the draining process, I can’t conclude that it is a bad battery or the use of the watch changed over the last year.
I let it run out of battery now until it switches off and will then do a full recharge. I will monitor the battery use more closely to hope that I can make any conslusions.
I will keep you informed…
-
@surfboomerang one more reason is FW has changed since you bought the watches.
-
@surfboomerang I see, you moved from an extra long duration to a ‘normal’ duration… mine is 1 week old and it lasts 1,5 day(s)… makes me loose my senses
-
@Vincenzo-Ucciero if your S9 lasts only a day, and you are not doing 15 hours of GPS tracking a day, please contact support because your watch must be faulty.

4 Days with 6h of activities (Performance mode).
My watch was brought in November 2018.
At the beggining with sleep tracking, Daily HR 24/7, Notification and backlight (30-40%) it used to leasts almost 7 days.
After one year, I’ve observed that the battery is drainer faster, with the same settings. Maximum 5 days.
