Hello,
Apologies if I have not followed forum protocol by creating a new topic, I did a quick search but couldn't see anything relative.
I have a big ride coming up soon which will push the Edge 25's battery life to it's 8 hour limit (with Bluetooth and GLONASS turned off). My question is, does having the heart rate monitor synched to the device drain the battery of the Edge? My understanding is that because it is only receiving data it shouldn't have an impact. I just wondered whether anyone had any knowledge or experience around this?
Also, I often leave my heart rate strap on while driving a car after finishing a ride, by simply wearing the monitor, will that be using the battery life? Or is it only when it is connected to a Garmin device it knows to use the battery?
Cheers
Dan
