Yesterday morning, my Instinct battery indicator had gone to 1 bar. This morning I take a run and after 40 minutes, when I am on the activity, my Instinct shows low battery warning. I stop and save the activity, it shows no bar on battery indicator but after 5 minutes, it shows 1 bar back. I will charge my Instinct at the end of today event if its battery not run out.
I wrote this thread 1 hour after my run then I went to work. I will charge it when I back home. I also want to know if it can last some more hours when low battery warning alert. Sorry my English is not good.

My question is: why did you not recharge your watch yesterday?

I just bought this Instinct and charged it 1 time. I think It can last about 3 days for last battery bar so I plan to charge it this evening (after about 2 day with 40 minutes of running). It will be about 10 days with about 4 hours of running since my first charge.
during activity is battery under load, because GPS, logging and other functions requiring energy is running. Batteries under load losing voltage. After stopping activity drop consumption and battery voltage increased. this is probably reason why then indicator shoved 1 bar.

Thanks for explaination. I think Instinct battery life is impressive.
I give some more information, hope it is useful. 5:30pm today, my Instinct battery indicator go to empty. When I arrive home, it is 7:45pm, the Instinct still working and I charge it to full. It takes 1.5h to full with 2A phone charger adapter. My Instinct lasts 10 days with 4 hours of activity. Very good battery life I think.
