Fenix 6 PRO - Power meter values are lower (barely 50%) compared to a Edge 830, using the same power meter on both watch & GPS, how can I fix this?

I'm using a stages power meter on my MTB and a Favero Assioma Uno on my road bike, and when I compare Fenix 6 power values with a Edge 830 GPS, they are kind of 50% lower (Fenix 6 gets 50 watts while Edge 830 100 watts, for instance). Anyone knows how to fix this?

Thanks.

Are these single side or dual side power meters?

If dual side, this sounds like a pairing issue with the fēnix 6 is only seeing the data from one side.

both power meters are single side, and both are showing lower values (50%) compared to an Edge 830. On my old Fenix 3 HR I didn't have that issue.

Have a look at this thread and see if it helps:

thanks, once at home I'll try to connect only ANT+ to both power meters from my Fenix 6 PRO and see if power values are right.

Delete the current pairing, then pair again. And pair over ANT+ rather than Bluetooth.

I think there is also a setting in the Assioma phone app that handles single versus double sided pedals over Bluetooth. (Using ANT+ bypasses this issue).
