HRM dual battery drainage

vogs 25 days ago

Hello, my HRM dual is draining the battery really fast lately. I use it 6 to 8 hours a week and I had to replace it every 6 months in the last two years. Shouldn't the battery last (much) longer?

I am always using Varta battery's or so (so no cheap noname) and I always remove the electronic part from the stap.

Does anyone else have this issue? Any chances to fix it?

Yeah that is fast! hmm... weird. In the past mine has lasted at least a year+ with use of 7~15hrs per week.

Fix... maybe disconnect module from strap when not using, maybe it is detecting it is being used while off chest? do you wash the strap well (soak for a long time, changing the water regularly to flush salt)? Contact support they have always been very helpful for my HR straps.

I always detach the module from the strap. I regularly wash it, yes. So I have no clue what's wrong.
