High Battery Drain on Version 19.05

essexboyracer 11 months ago

Took my Venu 2 off charge (100%) at 20:00 last night and this morning at 07:00 it is already 84%.

What is draining the battery so much during the night when I'm asleep?

I have had similar, or even worse, experiences with Venu 2 and version 19.05.

Yesterday evening my Venu 2 had about 40–50 % battery left. At morning the charge was below 10 % and then in about 30 minutes…

Today I did 5 times Reset All Data and Settings - didn't help. GARMIN please tell us, are you fixing the buggy 19.05 or not? If not, I will buy another brand.

Guys, we should promote the problem in…

I got my watch checked out by our country's warranty place (even though my warranty has ended) and they couldn't figure it out. They were in contact with Garmin as well and they have no idea why my watch keeps turning off (now like 15 times a day with or without doing an activity). They said it's not a battery problem (as it turns off even when the battery is 99%) and agreed that it might be an issue with the software, but can't be sure. Basically my watch turns off so many times during day and night that i can't use it as a simple pedometer or just as a watch, i can't even turn it on without plugging it in. If i'm not somewhere where i can connect it to a charger, then it just stays turned off.

I'm giving Garmin a second chance, but not Venu. If that doesn't work out, then i will be looking at some other brands.
