So like with many others, my Charge HR battery life will only last about 24 hours with my HR monitor on.  I saw on the forums that support staff suggested using the auto mode to still allow the monitor to work at times but also allow me to conserve some battery life.  However, there is no difference when I have the settings set to Auto or On.  The green light HR monitor leds on the back are flashing 24/7 even on the Auto mode.  So battery life is the same either on Auto mode or on ON mode.  Can someone please find out if there is a fix for this?  Thanks

Auto should keep the lights flashing when the unit is on the wrist. 

Looking for a fix,, considering the age of your tracker, it may need a new battery.
