Battery drain on the V4S - again

Hi I have VA4 and since I bought in most of time it i have more than 1%/h battery drain.
Sometimes it decrease to 0.5%/h but only sometimes...
Ewerything I have set up to the best battery preformace also watchface....

Might try turning watch off for 5 minutes then restarting.  Others have had this problem.

I think another thing I saw suggested was reinstalling Garmin Connect and Connect IQ.

Thanks for your advice. I will try it but since yesterday battery drain is normal... (0.5%/h)
It is possible that when I charge watch from charger battery drain is biger than when I charge watch by laptop USB ?? I notice something like that...

I've had my watch for 3 months, since day the battery life without workouts and nothing on, no bluetooth, no wifi no pulseox only hearrate and a watchface without seconds, i get max 5 days. If i workout, then i have to recharge it within 3 days. Nowhere near the 7 days claim Garmin makes. I honestly dont know what to do than replace this watch, which i have done once already. I have also tried to contact Garmin but total radio silence from them which is the shittiest thing a company can do.

I am also having battery issues. My battery is currently draining at 1.9% per hour which is high. However, this is the best I have been able to achieve. 

I have bluetooth turned off. Screen at 50% dimmness. PluseOX only at night. 

I am reluctant to turn anything else off because then there is no point in having a smart watch. 

All updates are installed and I have restarted the watch many times.

Does anyone have any ideas? There seems to be no way to achieve the mythical 7 or 8 days without turnning off all 'smart' features.

Screen at 50% may be higher than needed.  I have no problem reading the screen at 10%.  I never go higher than 20%.  I feel like higher than that tends to wash out the screen image.  I think the higher brightness is mostly for the flashlight effect.

Also, if you are using a third party watch face, you might try a pre-installed Garmin watch face and not display seconds or heart rate.  Relatively static data on the watch face tends to be more battery efficient, as does a pre-installed watch face for some reason.

I have been able to achieve 10 days per charge on a VA4 primarily by accepting a less interesting watch face.  I don't use many of the smart watch features, but I recently tested my watch setup with many of those features activated and was still on a 9 to 10 day pace.

Thank you for the feedback. I will try with a reduced screen brightness. However, I struggle to read some of the tiny text in dim light. The extra brightness certainly helps.

Secondly, I get that I could turn off all the features and just use it as a watch with the standard watch face. But then what is the point of the device? Why spend hundreds of dollars on features that I cannot use because they drain the battery?

Anyway, I am a long way from being able to get to 10 days. With reduced screen brightness I am looking at around 3 days.
