Another body battery question

My wife has had the Lily for over a year and has mixed results with the body battery working and has done several resets to try and fix it. I have the Venu 2 and never have any issues and unless I drink alcohol my body battery is usually up to 90% or more each night.  She is usually stuck around the 5-20% even after sleeping 9 hours and she doesn't drink. 

We even switched watches a while back for a night and she recharged my watch body battery normally and I was stuck at 20% with her watch. We are sick of the inconsistency and I see years' worth of Lily body battery posts. Is there a reason why the Lily is sub-par in this aspect and should we replace her watch with something better? Resetting it again is not a fix for us so we are looking for a real solution. 

  • Just a follow-up. We swapped watches last night again and she got my watch up +70 (which is about average for my nights but 55 points higher than she was able to get her lily watch up to for the last week). 

    We also noticed that she recorded 3 times more REM sleep than she ever had. So it seems like her Lily is not capturing that data as well as my Venu 2. 

    Finally, we noticed that even when she charges her body battery to 20% she sometimes ends the day with 8-12% left. Those are days where she goes to the gym, bikes etc. So it doesn't seem like her body battery drains like mine either. 

  • Same here. I use the new Epix and my wife uses the Garmin Lily. Exactly the same experience as you describe.

    It seems like Garmin just doesn't care. The Lily body battery issue (and high stress) has been a known bug for a couple of years now. I can't find any other suggestions than "reset your watch." It sometimes fixes the issue for a couple of days but then the watch goes back to low body battery / high stress mode again.

    Garmin: Will you please take this bug seriously?
