Extend battery life suggestion

To extend battery life, it would be helpful to be able to set the backlight to "On during an activity," i.e., only while recording, and to be able to set it to "off" before and after the activity.

Yesterday I spent half an hour on the starting grid and the battery drained by 4% to no avail.

    thats a bit of a niche situation but it is when you care the most about the risk of running out of battery.

    the other thing about sitting waiting pre-start is that default settings have your garmin switch off after a short idle time. if that happens and the screen backlight is off then you won't even know until you try to start it
