@suuntastic the algorithm is the same, the hardware (and filters) no.

Some nice TV time for the SV here

@MiniForklift watching it live I have been wondering if it was the SV…
Don’t know the strap she uses and was almost seeing 5 buttons on her watch !
But…anyway…who cares !!?? She’s the GOAT and an amazing woman !!

@MiniForklift Looks like S9PP to me:

Umer Javed · 16 Jul 2023, 22:25

@inkognito nice thanks for the screenshots

MiniForklift · 16 Jul 2023, 23:27

Oh, well that’s surprising if it is an S9PP but with the absence of the yellow dots on the side of the buttons you may be right ?!

inkognito · 16 Jul 2023, 23:39

@MiniForklift Is it really that surprising? I would rather wear a 55 g weighting S9PP for a 100 mile race than noticeably heavier SV…
Not that I even dare to hope that I will ever be able to run that far

Lol. Hey watching an elite runner wear the same watch as me is all the dopamine rush I need to end the weekend!

Not only Courtney but also the winner of this year’s Hardrock 100, Aurélien Dunand-Pallaz.
I’ve seen him wear a SV, but I think he ran with a S9PP.

For your peace of mind: Hannes Namberger (german pro) just won the Eiger Ultra E101 with a Vertical.

They don’t need the battery life we mortals need.

Jose Luis · 17 Jul 2023, 15:58

I have some questions regarding the issue of solar charging.
How much time corresponds to each bar?
How many bars does it take to charge 1%?

Brad_Olwin · 17 Jul 2023, 16:06

@taziden @inkognito I much prefer the S9PP over the Vertical for 100 mile and longer races. Easier on the wrist, I do not need maps and sufficient battery life.

Hey !
I have a question about the « petit poucet » screen (« following back the the track drawn »). I had not used it very much before the past few days where it was very useful…
But : I have realized that only the last 10km (my estimation) of the track drawned is visible !
That’s pretty annoying : this morning It would have have been a great help but the beginning of my track was not displayed.
Not very easy to see with this scale on that picture but in green the track is still ok but in the red I was above 10km and the track recorded the morning was not visible anymore.
( not very easy to explain with my poor English ; Don’t know if I am clear enough…)
Did you have the same issue, or did I missed something in the settings ?
Does a soft reset is needed ?
Thanks !

Brad_Olwin · 30 Jul 2023, 01:08

@Tieutieu This is correct. The current zoom is 500m but that may change in the future.

babychai · 30 Jul 2023, 03:39

@Tieutieu i have this problem too last weekend. i did about 14km hike and the route for the last few km is disappeared start from the trailhead. luckily i know how to walk back to my trailhead without refer to the route. first time happen to me after so many hike with SV watch.

yesterday i did another 14km hike and don’t have this issue. few weeks ago i did more than 20km hike also don’t have this issue.

is this a bug?

@Brad_Olwin that is not the problem : I know the max zoom is 500m and for now I’m fine with that.
My problem is that whatever is the zoom level is, I can’t see more than the last 10km of the track recorded. That makes the « petit poucet » function pretty useless.

Ok thanks. For me not sure I don’t have the issue since the beginning, as I didn’t had to really use it until the past few days…
I’ll try a soft reset.

Thanks for the clarification, I will check this tomorrow.

Does the Vertical offer a way to lock the watch when not recording an activity ?
