Snore detect is understandingly a big battery user if you have that turned on.

@Ukprash Always on Display also eats a lot of battery!

Hi @Ukprash  - to check it's not a watch or firmware fault.

• Shutdown the watch from the watch Settings menu at the bottom 
• Wait at least 10 seconds before placing on the charger to restart and charge it.
• Look at the features suggested in the previous posts and look at How to resolve the Major issues causing short battery life

If you then get normal battery life of 5 days or more your watch is fine.

Try factory reset and then add one app at a time till you find the culprit. You won't lose any of your data. Mine did the same and now back to 5-6 days.

@MichaelPayne  - a factory reset has risks besides it can take time to set it up again and you may end up in a worse state than before.

There is normally a simple explanation as to excessive battery use, which is often excessive use of features not needed all the time.

I use my Just1Battey to detect battery drain. Found out that :

1. At night it uses a lot of battery. Snore detection(?)

2. At day when I use the GPS.

Some results:

120 minutes for 1% 

15 minutes for 1%
