      @miniforklift depends on the settings. My 2 yo s9 lasts about 3-4 days with whr 24/7 and sleep tracking but no notification and about 5-6 hours of activity during this period.

        @miniforklift I would say that mine decreases by about 10-15% per day, and that’s with smart notifications, 24hr HR and sleep tracking. I normally use GPS each day for a run or dog walk (which uses additional battery obviously), so on average I charge it every 4 days.

            @ianpet Not for a soft reset - it basically turns your watch off and on again. As was said above, hold down the top right button for around 12s and the screen will go dark (at which point you can let go) and will automatically turn on again a few seconds later. I probably soft reset mine once per week to clear the phantom calendar notifications that won’t disappear (that’s a whole different story!).

                I would guess no. Sounds like there’s an actual issue with your watch so I’d be getting in touch with Suunto CS

                  Softreset is more just , ‘turnoff watch and turn it on’
                  You won’t loose any settings, it is like restarting (like for your phone).
                  The only thing to do after a “softreset” is to connect to the app to sync again the GPS assisted data.
                  And in your case, after softreset, proceed to full discharge of watch and full charge to let the watch software calibrate the battery again.

                  Softreset won’t modifiy anything in the battery hardware, but sometimes battery software management need to be resetted (the software has some mess in the battery measurment gauges), thus softreset can just clean this.

                  And in your case, after softreset, proceed to full discharge of watch and full charge to let the watch software calibrate the battery again.

                      @ianpet Is that with sleep tracking, HR and notifications on? If so, doesn’t seem too unreasonable.

                                  No, impossible. I get around 9 days without notifications, 24h or sleep tracking and around 6/8 of GPS with belt.

                                    @ianpet I didn’t - I get 4 days with everything on. I said as much earlier in this thread!

                                      maybe to get a good view of the situation, can you create a similar post as I did (https://forum.suunto.com/topic/3674/suunto-9-baro-quick-discharge-problem/67?_=1613503046483)?

                                      So we get an idea about the settings, activities and battery drain rate you experience?
                                      There are simply too much variables to just state if 4, 8, 11 or 15 days are normal for the watch. It depends…

                                          I charged mine yesterday evening and this morning I was at 95% (sleep tracking was on). So yours sounds about right

                                            @ianpet it does cause more battery drainage. How much? I don’t know. I never use the optical sensor and also never tested the difference. Maybe other people know more exact numbers.
