Battery life of the 735XT...

Former Member over 8 years ago

For those that have had theirs for a few weeks now, how are you finding it? For those that have upgraded from a 235, how does it compare?

Do you believe the 14hrs GPS+HRM?

Wow. You guys are doing great with the battery life. My 735XT is brand new and lasts only two days with 1h of running. I have the built in HR sensor and BT running all the time. I wear the watch 24/7. But I am only working out about 1h per two days. Why is my battery life so bad? Notifications are off btw.

That's more or less what I get.

However whether I enable or not the HR sensor, BT, or notifications doesn't seem to impact battery life. :confused:

I have BT and 24/7 HR enabled and tend to get around 3-4 days per charge. During the week I run at least an hour a day and have ~20-25 minutes of GPS cycling from my bike commute.

I did a full charge yesterday afternoon and I'm at 78% right now after doing a 1:04 run yesterday evening and 12 minute bike commute this morning.

Update: a week after my last post the watch stopped charging alltogether. Warranty exchange and now battery is pico bello for I dont even know how long it would last w/o charge. My guess is 1 week with full usage and BT always on.
