Battery drain after update 2.44.46 (2025 Q3) on Vertical Watch
-
It’s not to do with the H10 as I only use the H10 and have the 10-12% drain per day
-
Further update I can confirm that disconnecting paired device (hr Monitor) did not help battery life still going down at same rate. There must be other potential causes of this that are unknown
-
@surfboomerang 2-3% - that’s too much without activities.
-
@gone-troppo I had data loss (first time with FW upgrade) battery consumption has not deteriorated.

Too much for a whole day ?SVTS - 2.44.46

@Ars-Vitae With notifications on an no power saving… I think it’s a good score.
The drain rate is the same as before the firmware update.Suunto Vertical Titanium Solar
OnePlus Nord 4 -
@sartoric Without notifications, wrist HR off and no workouts mine is around 1-1.5% per day. And so it has been for two years.
-
@surfboomerang I’ve never checked, I don’t use notifications. So you’re probably right, it should be a good score.
-
I’m on my second discharge/charge cycle now post firmware upgrade and it seems like the battery life is returning to previous. Also interestingly yesterday I gained back 1% of battery wing outside most of the day in the sun.
-
I’m also trying to fully discharge the battery because the consumption data keeps getting worse.
I’m attaching a chart from the last recharge, which only shows two hours of recorded activity. I have HR tracking enabled all day, but notifications are turned off.

The consumption should be at around 45% on the last day. This is clearly an issue. In comparison, I have not noticed anything like this on my SV. The consumption is similar to what it was before the update. If more people are experiencing this issue, then history is repeating itself from a year ago. I hope for all of you that Suunto is aware of the problem and will solve it quickly.

I have also noticed excessive battery drain since the last firmware update. I used to have a drain of around 5% per 24 hours without any activity (since the fixes made a few months ago: https://forum.suunto.com/post/158362).
Since the last update, I’m now at over 10% with the same watch settings.
It’s a bit disappointing to have these excessive battery drain issues again. -

Mine is similar to yours getting worse, in previous 24 hour it went down 24% and in last 24 hours went down 27% …. Basically every hour it drops 1%
