    @e6321 said in Battery drain:

    sometimes it goes up

    I have only seen this between 96% and 100%.

    Fun fact about the solar version:
    At the moment I am on a holiday in a very sunny location. Charged the watch to 100% on Monday. Recorded a couple of hours of activities and the watch still has 95% of battery left today.

    it is great battery usage. this is more what I expected. I am usually doing tracking activities 3-4 timea a week, sometume >3hrs. i have to recharge every 10-14 days more or less…

      Ragazzi ciao a tutti,ho notato una cosa strana,metto in carica il mio Suunto vertical titanium solar e non arriva al 100%,la carica si ferma al 99%, devo fare stacca e attacca un paio di volte il carica batteria o addirittura un software reset affinché arrivi al 100% ma dopo 1 minuto che lo stacco dal caricabatteria scala subito al 99%,stranissima come cosa…qualcuno ha avuto lo stesso problema?

          Can’t say I ever noticed much by way of the solar, that is until today. Charged it to full yesterday morning then ran this morning for 2 hours using maps, which took it down to 97%

          This afternoon I’d been driving for an hour and a half with the sunlight hitting it and it went back up to 100%, and five hours later it’s still saying 100%. Impressive!

            @MiniForklift Yes, I’ve seen this in the previous firmware as well. I think it’s some kind of calibration.

              hello,
              I have done a run with 2 Suunto app activated. I still notice much higher battery drainage… suunto coach, ans ghost Runner. I lost 10% or so in 1h30 run activity tracking… high performance.

              still it is too much. for very long run and ultras > 70k it almost mean that a full charge wont be enough with those Suunto apps activated. it is a shame…id rather use suunto core only to optimize my battery longevity!

              what do you think? is the last update corrected the battery drainage issue?

              i guess , it will depend of the app itself. ghost runner seems to be demanding.

                Hi, I left my Vertical on the table overnight and this morning I found that the battery has drained by 15%… Does anyone have a similar experience?

                  yes unfortunately I have faced something similar. it seems that taking the device off the wrist , for some reason it consumes a significant amount of energy. i also tried to put it on low energy mode but still the same. the only way of avoiding that was to turn it off…

                    @Pavlas can it be perhaps that the OHR sensor is active and this drains the battery? Try to disable 24/7 HR and test. Just an idea.

                      Put the device upside down, maybe its the ohr sensor struggling to read the table etc

                        @Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos It’s the first time it’s happened to me. The watch is on the strap. Usually barely 1% of the battery disappears overnight.

                          @Pavlas it’s definitely the hr … I left in my bag today and it shows very high hr readings with many spikes which I suspect affect other metrics . It also consumed 10% in less than 6 hours
                          I think that’s a bug to be honest .

                                @Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos it was idle in the backpack while I was in the office. The readings have consistent pattern . I can test it again 🙂

                                Thanks !!

                                  @thanasis I don’t see any HR values from that night. Looks like it didn’t measure anything.

                                    So I guess it really is HR. Now I put the watch right on the table and the HR is glowing. When I put it on the strap, it doesn’t light up. It’s possible I had it right on my desk last night.

                                      So for the last few nights my watch has been upside down on the table. Battery consumption was about 0.5%.
                                      But last night 4% disappeared again.
                                      I think I’m really gonna turn off the heart rate tracking and be done with it.

                                          I’m still not happy with the daily battery life of the watch. Is there a known problem? Daily battery consumption for me is 4-5%.
                                          I’ve also tried 100%->0% calibration
                                          But during activity it seems fine. That’s roughly 2 - 2.5% per hour.
                                          What is your experience? I have the non-solar version.
