Sense draining battery swimming

[LeaArt7]

Have my sense not even 10days

on 1st swim right after full battery charge my watch didn’t make even 12 hours 

that’s worst experience with fitbit devices and I had so many

Hi, @LeaArt7, welcome to the community, much depends on what else you have been doing with your "Sense". I swim indoors daily with mine for an hour and see about 10% used. GPS tracking uses about the same 10% an hour - this is probably the most intense drain on the device, how long are you swimming for? what other activities do you engage in?

I look forward to hearing from you.

Cheers

I swamped for 10 minutes 4 times.

my activity is about 17000

steps still brand new device and 1st time using swim mode on my vacation and watch didn’t make it 12 hours 

i noticed 50% on a battery before bed time thinking I still have couple of days left on it. Showing that it made it till 5 am what’s beyond terrible.

Even my Versa 2 did better job as 2 years old.

Hi, @LeaArt7, thanks for your advice, I gather you swam for about 40 minutes, have completed about 17,000 steps (I walk about 6,000 steps an hour when walking at 3.5mph) This probably explains a drain on your battery reserve of about 30-40% in the day. You may be interested in Why isn't my Fitbit device's battery charging?  which also provides links to making the best of your battery reserve. I hope this is helpful.
