🐋 Garmin Fenix 3 Hr Battery Drain

It does not matter what kind of settings I activate/deactivate, as long as phone is connected the battery drains fast. Hopefully they will fix this issue short term few days back there was a Garmin Connect update on my Android phone. Since then the battery drain of my Fenix 6 went down to 0.33/hr, which is much better than it was before Disable the backlight entirely, or reduce it to absolute minimum brightness (5%). Make the timeout as short as possible – e.g. 4 seconds. The backlight causes quite a lot of battery drain. During the day everything will still be visible. Assuming you’re running through the night, you’ll have a headtorch to shine onto your watch. My tests: Battery drain in Activity mode (GPS+OHR+BT) is approx 7-8% per hour => ~14 hours endurance, OK for an older watch as it has 19h endurance when new. Battery drain during the smartwatch mode / Stanby OHR+BT is approx 1.2 % /h => overall needs to be charged every 2-3 days Stamina seemed kind of low so I have tried the following things The new software update is rolling out now to Garmin Fenix 7, Enduro 2, Epix (Gen 2) and Taxtix 7 devices, and should fix an issue that caused the watch's battery to drain much more quickly than it should. As Gadgets & Wearables reports, the new software (version 9.37) is a public release, meaning it's being pushed out to all users rather than Firmware 16.60 - Fenix 6x Pro Solar Battery drain. So over the night my Fenix 6x Pro Solar auto updated to firmware 6.60. I was excited, but when I went to bed my percentage was at about 58%, but then when I woke up it was at 30%. In the last couple hours along with keeping the watch in the sun charging I have already dropped 2%. well, I'm used to pain with garmin quality, I had WHR problems etc. on my Fenix 5x Plus and I know that some things might not work as advertised, I'm already very tolerant as I generally like the Garmin Watches, but this is crazy for a 900 Euro device..I disabled now Wifi and the Altimeter calibration outside activities, those are the only settings that I think might drain the battery, and Battery drain issues with v20 on Fenix 6x pro. formfaktor over 1 year ago. Not sure what happened, wifi off, no crazy watch faces, all sensors disconnected. All of a sudden crazy 3% an hour drains. Anyone else experience similar issues? I never had more than .3%/h drain. Now I get something nutty like 10 fold drains.. When did v20 just roll out? After 48 h: From 100% to 90%! Firmware-Version 20.0, Fenix 5x, no third part Apps or Widgets!. Seconds are displayed in my Watchface. It is my third Fenix 5x and I had never had problems with the battery life. On the two first units, I had problems with the USB-Connectot (pin 3!). But now, it seems tha tthe problem has been fixed! Particularly the last hour and last day fields are useful. Outside of activities, my hourly rate is usually from 0.0-0.1% to 0.3%.

I installed a simple battery widget and it looks like I'm averaging about 0.25%/hr of drain, including phone notifications, and 30min runs 4-5 days a week using GPS + music. That's basically fine (great even), as it works out to more than 2 weeks between charges. Even so, I'm always looking for settings to prolong the battery, not that I really Same here. Charged to 100% last night at 2000. It is now 1800 and the battery is showing 71% charge. No activities in the last 22 hours. Battery drain seems quite excessive. AlexGrondin over 1 year ago +5.
