HRM-Pro Plus Showing Low Battery Warning During Activity – Battery Status "Okay" in App

Post Content:

Hi everyone,

I'm using the Garmin HRM-Pro Plus with the latest firmware v8.90. Recently, I've received low battery warnings twice during activities, even though:

  • The Garmin Connect app, web dashboard, and watch all show the battery status as "Okay".

  • The device syncs successfully and records metrics without dropouts (so far).

  • Firmware is up to date.

  • Battery has not yet completed a full year of use (used approx. 1 hour/day).

I understand that battery voltage may dip under load, but this seems inconsistent — could this be a firmware bug or sensitivity issue in v8.90?

Has anyone else experienced this? Should I proactively replace the battery, or wait until the warning becomes persistent?

Would appreciate guidance or if Garmin support could look into this.

Thanks!
