    I use the usb port on my alarm o'clock .. maybe I will try it on a proper charger today! thanks.

  • I observed an interesting thing with the latest firmware. My sleep period is set between 10 PM and 6:30 AM. And PulseOX measuring is set to be "During Sleep". 
    This new firmware seems to be able to detect sleep outside the specified interval. For example, last night, after a very active day, I went to sleep at about 8:45, and it correctly detected it. In the past, even though I went to sleep before 10 PM sometimes, the sleep tracking started at 10 PM exactly.
    However, PulsOX measurement starts only at the predefined time.
    I also observed that taking a nap in the middle of the day will nicely recharge body battery, but it won't appear as a sleep cycle.
    All in all, I have the feeling that this update improved sleep detection and tracking, though it is only an intermediary step forward.

    Downloaded the update and charged my venu on Sunday and now it’s Monday and the battery is almost completely dead. Never done this until this update
