@sneike The only watch that lets you use maps in Custom mode is the Vertical.
There are contradictory information online, are we 100% sure of this?
The only one I can enable maps in a custom battery mode is the vertical.
Thank you for clarifying that. Do you also confirm that if we start an activity with a custom battery mode and set the GPS accuracy to OK, we can expect the battery life of the Ultra mode as long we don’t keep the map (or the ETA data fields) on the screen all the time?
I think if you run maps at all it will impact battery life in Ultra mode. If you save the mode for a specific custom sport profile the battery estimate shown on the watch should be reasonable. I assume you need battery to last 280h?? I used my V1Solar for a fast pack trip in August that was 4d with sleep tracking, OHR, etc enabled and about 12h of GPS per day. My battery estimates in Performance mode ranged from 62h to 90h. I did not charge the watch and had 38% left by the end of the trip. I use Performance unless I need the extra battery and then would use Endurance. Unlikely for me I would need 280h of continuous tracking.
