My watch battery has been draining since this update, lucky to get three days. Is there a fix or has anyone experienced this problem?

Sorry to hear about this. We'll want to look into this for you. First, please review this FAQ: Tips to Extend the Battery Life on a Garmin Fitness Watch
If you are still seeing rapid battery drain…
I don't understand why Garmin keeps ignoring all these reports and doesn't produce a fix for this problem. I'm very disappointed by this behavior and I don't think I will recommend Garmin to Friends anymore…
That is a great suggestion! be sure to submit it using our Ideas Portal.

Hi,
I've read the FAQ, but my watch usage Is not changed after the 13.14 firmware update. A full charge has been down from 6-7 days to only 3.
Answering to your questions:
Thanks in advance for the help
I too have noticed approximately 20% drain every 12 hours. Using mainly as a watch, very few notifications, heart rate and pulse of during day and no GPS usage. Before update it was lasting almost 7 days with sensors on and using the calling feature. Very frustrating.
This has too happened to me. The day I updated I noticed a rapid drain on battery. Within 2 days I was no longer able to use watch. It says 100% when plugged in but once it is taken off the cord it goes black. So sad as this is such an expensive watch to replace.
I too am experiencing this issue, device powered off yesterday due to low charge, recharged to 90% yesterday (around same time 1330), today device is down to 35% at the time of posting, no GPS or high drain activities conducted during the time period.
