@dankcushions I took over moderating the sub after this point (an interesting story actually) and have been actively removing obvious AI bot comments and posts. If any still remain, report them and they’ll show up in the mod queue, from which I can handle them from there.
thanks! you know when i was writing that post i tried to scan the front page for AI comments and couldn’t find any, so it appears to be working - nice job!

9PP WHR 24/7 stopped working during night again
A shiver runs down my spine…
Currently, @Jaxxdu (https://forum.suunto.com/post/180232) and you had (again) the “pleasure” of this bug… Very very well! So, I’m waiting for it.
Finally (…), after more than a month since this update, the OHR sensor gave up during last night. I’ve managed to switch on the sensor by switching on then off the power saving mode; moreover, I’ve sent logs.

@vinc14 not normall at all. Contact support, maybe submit logs from suunto app. It can be problem in phone or in watch, only official support will be able to help (hopefully).
-
@vinc14 Not normal, it’s an App bug.
Workaround: force stop and restart Suunto App. You don’t need to restart phone, only app. -
Jedi mind trick, There was never anything to see here…
Suunto Vertical, Vertical 2, Race, Race 2, Race S and Run. Rocking the Vertical 1 at the moment.

@Stavrogin That answer makes 100% sense, but I trust ChatGPT just about 0%.
-
@duffman19 that’s why I quote it. I agree I don’t totally trust anything on the internet including here. I only offer it because it might offer a solution. I will try disconnecting and reconnecting each run. It only takes a minute and then one of my two issues will be resolved if only until it is fixed via firmware. I can always charge more often. I don’t want to and I am excited to have Vertical-like battery life back, but when my tech poops the bed mid run I start to question if I need that tech.
-
@Stavrogin Gotcha. I was just making an easy joke. And I really do think that answer makes total sense, but I know almost nothing about the inner workings of these things.
It’s interesting that some users are experiencing total BT disconnections midway through activities. I’ve only experienced quick disconnects, usually only lasting a second or two. But it’s still really annoying to get those connection notification vibrations throughout an activity.
My big issue remains the inability of the software to correctly connect to whichever external HR sensor I’m trying to use (I alternate between two). One solution I use it to unpair and then newly re-pair the sensor right before using it. And, as you suggested, this usually results in a good BT connection throughout the activity. So there’s that.
Here’s to hoping the Q4/Q1 update(s) will bring BT connection progress!

I don’t recognize any battery fix unfortunately
Frankly, my Peak pro 9 never kept more than 7 days. I have been using it for 1.5 years. 24/7 tracking is on, Raise to wake off.
The last year the battery holds 3-4 days and no more.
Usually, the first 24 hours it looks promising with ~14% usage, but then the depleting growth to 20% -> 30% a day.
The main reason to choose Suunto was it’s battery life for which I was ready to compromise the MIP display. Comparing my choice to any known brand with AMOLED display makes me feel uncomfortable.After a month with Garmin Fenix 8 Amoled I can confirm, there was no reason for PP9 with MIP display to burn it’s battery so fast.
Garmin knows to keep at least 2 weeks with AMOLED! -
@Stavrogin ChatGPT (or any other LLM) can fabricate non existing stuff. It can describe to you non existing API of software. It can even “quote” non existing manual pages
so if don’t have possibility to examine firmware spurce code with hardware schematis than don’t trust it at all. It can make sence when you read it but it can be made up at same time. -
@Tomas5 Again…Thats why I quoted it…
-
@Sergey-Balbir well that’s a bit of an unfair comparison, since the S9PP was released long before the Garmin Fenix 8. Modern Suuntos like the Vertical 2 also run two weeks (and more) wit Amoled displays.

Partially agree with you.
S9PP promised 21 days of battery life in smartwatch mode. I have never got 1 full week with 2 gyms, 1 swimming and 1.5h of GPS activity. -
@Sergey-Balbir same for Race 2, 18 days promised but best i got was 16 days if i remember correctly only with original firmware. Usually is 14 or less.
-
Battery life in smartwatch mode is always without any activity, and it is the same for all brands
-
@Josaiplu of course with any activity it is accordingly lower. But it is still good battery life.
-
@Sergey-Balbir fully understand your frustration. Should be at least close to advertised „runtime“
-
@Sergey-Balbir From my experience, do you have enabled the Raise To Wake or Standby light in display settings? This eats the battery.
