Battery drain 17.26

After updating to 17.26 and charging to 100% my FR 965 dropping battery like crazy.

100% @ 10am, at 5:30pm 90% left, before the update (and without activity) my watch dropped like 2-4% for 24hrs (PulsOx off, AOD off, Gestures off)

anyone else?

Yes battery drain is normal on this Model. I had this kind of bug since 3 months. Got replacement unit from Garmin and still battery drain. especially at night 15% drops are Common.

They don't care about this.

Haven’t had any issues since last update. 1% drop at night on my side (nightly drain is PulsOx for sure)

Have you ever tried a soft reset?

Same issue. Drop of almost 50% over night since 17.26 install yesterday. 17.24 was fine for me. @Garmin: Please fix urgently.

Seems to be back to normal after soft reset.

Not for me. with AOD Off i get 7 days, with 2-3 hours of GPS activity

Definitely elevated for me. I previously got about .7% per hour, now I'm regularly exceeding 1.3% per hour since the update. I've done several soft reboots.
