Buying a Vertical
-
@KSGravelJunkie I’m speaking based on my own two time experience with both the SV1 Stainless Steel and SV1 Solar Titanium.
I let the battery drain completely to 0% (until screen off or seeing the battery symbol), then fully charged it to 100% and kept it charging for another 1 hour.
Based on my experience, starting the charge at 5%, 10%, or 20% and unplugging the charging cable immediately once it reaches 100% never worked as well for me.

This. Many times this trick repaired my battery drain in all Suunto watches.

@babychai Thanks for the feedback, I’ll give this a try next go around. Although I have done this unintentionally a couple times over the last few months and it hasn’t gotten better on my Race V1. Fingers crossed.

One quick question, the solar version here in Canada is about $100CDN more then the non solar… ( $1CDN == .62 Euro)… Is it worth it ? I generally work in front of a computer all day, then get out for a 1-2hr run daily…

@shampoo If want to feel lighter, then can go for the Solar Titanium.
Spending 1–2 hours outdoors may extend the battery life by 1%, but you probably won’t notice much difference during activities.

As I used Vertical Ti in past I enjoyed more Titanium more than Solar:D

That was my point. Titanium look is so great.

I only have it a few weeks and I can now fully understand all the love and credit this piece of gear gets from it’s users about the outstanding navigational precision and power reservation. But the looks for me are unique and that is one of the reasons I also bought the Race because the amoled craze is making this kind of look-n-feel disappear…

@Tieutieu If only the vertical 2 kept the same look as the Vertical 1 titanium, I would buy the Vertical 2 instead of the Suunto race 2. The Vertical 1 Ti is the prettiest Suunto ever!!
