Battery drain after 3.70 firmware upgrade

Hi,

The new firmware upgrade drains the battery of my Edge 130.

Same location, weather, connected sensors, mobile pairing, GPS settings, overall settings, etc. Everything exactly the same.

3.60 firmware -> more than 12 hours of battery life

3.70 firmware -> less than 8 hours of battery life

From one day to the next.

@Garmin, please fix this or unroll the firmware upgrade. Otherwise this make the Edge 130 unusable.

Thanks in advance.

    Strange? I am seeing a battery improvement with FW 3.70. Last year in summer I could only get 6 hours and now with same settings I had one bar left after 8 hours.

    Well, I have reproduced this now again yesterday. So this is a consistent behaviour for my unit.

    Starting from a full battery, I got only 1 bar left after 5:48h of elapsed time.

    Same location, same weather, same sensors, mobile phone pairing/connection, etc.

    I was getting >12h with the exact same settings, sensor, mobile, etc (and Edge 130 unit, of course!) until I upgraded to 3.70 about 10 days ago.

    @Garmin, could you please have a look at this?

    Thanks in advance.
