Battery drain

[freeheeler]

I saw mine eating battery like potato chips over the past few days. will observe and report

If anyone wants to make the battery drain real fast, put the ohr on a glass surface when not wearing . It makes it discharge much faster. I am taking this approach to get to the 0% in the next couple of days so that to make it for the weekend

[sartoric]

Mine seems ok.
I’m at 49% after 10 days, with activities and 24/7.
Maybe some of the other options is draining more than expected (eg. I don’t have phone BT always on)

My SV seems ok, too. I updated at 03.07.24 with 38% battery, and I charged from 6% to 100% battery at 15.07.24… this consumption was as I would expect it. And now, I will see.

Hi guys just to share my experience with the battery drain. It was terrible after the update eating around 10% of the battery a day. But after maybe two cycles when I charged the watch from around 30% to the max it seems to be stable again and back to the previous consumption. I believe in many cases it will end up the same and there isn’t probably any issue that should be fixed (I can’t be sure of course). For now it seems to be ok so I am happy with that:)

for those more expert than me and knowing how to make a dump log of android suunto app, some of the files are containing regular battery gauge informations

I charged my SV today morning, from 1% to 100% : it is there

No issues here. Battery drains as before the update.

I was experiencing the battery drain (1% / hour). After a couple of recharges from 20% to 100%, and turning off and on it seems like battery is performing as normal now. I don’t know if battery will drain fast again after my today’s workout (will update).

I will turn off the notification from Cell on my watch to see the impact on the battery.and see if it is worth it. it looks like notifications are pretty battery foody…

I will finish discovering why my battery never last more than 10 days. I am tired in looking now.

[stromdiddily]

Ok - I’m finally back to a normal rate (and actually have seen some definite improvements in drain during activity).

Started with 40% after update
Drained down to less than 10% and full charge
Still saw worsened battery life so allowed another drain to sub 10%

Soft reset, full charge back to 100%

Now I’m at 94% after two days of all day/night wear and 3 hours of GPS activities.

My Vertical just went from 19% to 9% during night. That’s new. Soon 0% and then I will charge it to 100%

@Egika ok thanks, for the problem of abnormal battery consumption do you have to follow the guide so between 10% / 20% recharge or completely discharge the battery to re-calibrate it?

[Egika]

@MeazzaS9 as written in the FAQ section. A discharge to 10-20% battery followed by a full charge will be sufficient.

[MeazzaS9]

@Egika ok thanks, some say to bring it to 0 and then reload. I wanted to be sure

[gerasimos]

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos everything is perfect now!

1. Soft reset
2. Full circle 0-100%

Stable and powerful again.
Even the indication of battery at full charge saw me 100% and not 99% as previews updates

That’s not becouse of update. I got Vertical since November 2023, and sometimes it was charge always to 100%, battery jumps 98 ->99 and 99-> 100 at same “length- time”, but sometimes stop at 99%, and this 1% was added like after additional 30 minutes or something.

[Emi Ortiz]

@Marton-Attila just same…

[Iggge]

Do a full recharge from 0%- 100% did fix the problem for me altso.
