      did you already try a soft reset? it could be needed if experiencing battery drain after an activity

            @Marien-Perrot press and hold the upper right button until the screen turns off and the Suunto logo appears, indicating a reboot.

              I think battery drain issue is not yet solved.

              First of all my SVTS has notifications, sleep, 24/7 and backlight off.

              With the last firmware, just after the update, I did 20 days with around 13/14 hours of activities with GPS (7/8 of them with maps all the time and following a route) + 2 hours of non GPS activities. That is pretty good for me.
              But the last charge cycle have been 3.5 days, with 2.5 hours of GPS activities (1.5 hours with one route loaded but not used) and my watch is at 83%.

              Consumption during activities is normal and good as always.

              I’m quite sure that if I do a soft reset the consumption will be normal again. If someone needs logs, let me know.

                @iterumtenta Thx for your answer. Sorry I didn’t saw this possibility in the rtfm… My bad.

                Since the last charge 4 days ago, only one activity of 1h.
                Batterie is at 84%.
                So it’s mean 4% dicrease per day.
                I do soft reset after every activities since today because I’m expecting it will be better.

                Hope the new firm will correct this malfunction.

                  @Marien-Perrot I’ll be happy with 4% drop power day. Mine, since new, drops about 8% per day without any activity. I have the HR on and screen high on rise in. DND from 10pm to 5am set everyday.

                      @Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos Hi ! I mean 4% is for me too high juste for Time, BT, HR and notifications. No other functions or options are selected. And I don’t do many activities per days or per weeks.
                      I don’t remember if that was the case when I bought the watch.
                      The only one boring thing is I have too do soft reset after every activities but is it the good thing to do ? I don’t think so.
                      But with all your sensations about batterie drain, I recognize that I’m not in a very bad situation.

                        Do you have sleep tracking enabled ?
                        HR 24/7 ?
                        BT 24/7 ?
                        Vibration? Sounds?
                        4% daily with some activities doesn’t look bad at all to me

                        It means 20 days to go from full to 20% … not even completely drained

                          No sleep tracking
                          HR on and only in use if I’m wearing the watch
                          BT on but link is not in use when my phone is night off.
                          Vibration On
                          Sounds Off
                          For now I think draining is normally as you said.
                          But to have this, I do soft reset after every activities.
                          Is it the right thing to do ?
                          I think I won’t try to do some soft reset after the next charge.

                            @Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos I would say that 4% is worse than before the summer update… before this update which changed the watch faces, I had to charge every 4 weeks, and now the battery lasts about 3 to 3,5 weeks… without changing any settings…

                              Because there are still some drain issues, so it should be taken into consideration when doing comparisons

                                @sartoric I really think that there are still some drain issues… I do about 3 hours Running activity per week, HR is 24/7 on, sleep tracking is on, but normally I don’t do a soft reset… the only thing I changed now is that I use ZoneSense and the HR belt… I didn‘t use a belt before the ZoneSense app…

                                  Sadly, not, before battery drain, it was around 2 % with HR and BT 24/7 for sure.
                                  The big drain is out but not the short one.

                                    Of course, Suunto announced 60 days of daily use when the vertical was out. And it was that until update caused battery drain.

                                      I think I identified a new pattern for the battery drain without actually starting the exercise

                                      Navigate to quick start menu of a exercise (eg running)
                                      Configure setting
                                      Abort (go back)
                                      Did it twice after I had resettled the watch from an exercise and I got like 1% drain per hour on idle

                                      @isazi Do you know if this one is also confirmed by Suunto (and not fixed yet)? I think I ran into the same issue last week.
                                      During an evening run, I enalbed the backlight of the watch during the activity. Afterwards, I went into the options of my running profile to check if it was a one time setting or that the backlight was enabled now for every future running activity. It was off, so I exited the config menu.

                                      After that, I noticed a huge battery drain of around 10% per day where 1-2% per day is my baseline.

                                        I charged my suunto vertical solar to 100% on 20.10.
                                        I do only weight exercises twice a week and have 24/7 hr and sleep tracking on. Battery is 20% at the time od writing this post. Maybe best solution would be to sell the watch and go back to garmin…
