Battery drain on 3.40

For reasons I don't understand I am stuck on firmware 3.40.

Twice now I've had random battery drains and I suspect they've happened after I've done waking/running activities.

The first time i went from 58% to nothing while sleeping. Today I should have been around 60 to 70 percent. When I checked my battery I was down to 43%. I checked a minute later and I was down to 40.

I went from a vivoactive 3 to this because of the improved features and battery life, but I'm heading to have to charge it every day because of the random drain.

I have removed all third party watch faces long ago. I only have the preinstalled Garmin ones left.

What are my options? I'm stuck here

Have you tried rebooting the watch? Press and hold the upper button until the watch turns itself off (~20 seconds) and then turn it back on.

As far as being on 3.40, you probably have an APAC (Asian-Pacific) version of the watch.

Yeah. The second time when I noticed the drain I rebooted and it seems to stop it.

But spot checks and restarts aren't a long term solution.

Next time I will reset it. I'm hoping that helps.

As for being stuck with an APAC version, I have had my suspicions. What's odd is I got it from Amazon US.
