what is a good sleep efficiency score?

[LindaF]

I am just curious what others are getting as a sleep efficiency score. I am averaging a 92 percent efficiency.

Lucky!  Apparently I am suffering from horrible sleep patterns!  I was at a 54% sleep efficiency last night.  I was in bed for 8 hrs 33 mins but apparenty only "slept" for 4 hrs 16 mins!!!

We'll see what happens moving forward!  Guess now I know why I am so dang tired during the day!

I just set my sleep settings to sensitive.  Will see tomorrow if that changes the results.

 mine is the mid 90s but I turn it to sensitive and drop to 60 I don't know where I should keep it at but My gess is to keep on the defelt setting. I not sure but if you sleep with your hand on your chest maybe it might pick up you breathing and or the interval time for movement is a lot less.  in senitive mode.

I slept 60 % efficiency last night and have been in the 60s for the past week.  All I know is that I wake up frequently and roll over.

I have averaged 60% range since getting my Fitbid (for Christmas 2016) which I think is terrible.

Hey everyone! 

I moved this thread to the Discussion board Sleep Better as I think it is more suited to be here.

Have a fantastic year, all of you!

Wow... I am very impressed with a 92% score which suggests a more effective day.

Where you see that purcentage on your sleep qualify?

Where you see this sleep efficiency score?

I get low 90s Sleep Eff %.  But used to get in low 50s.

[Papajohnnyboy]

I've kept an Excel spread sheet for the past 2 weeks.   My Sleep Eff % numbers have been in low 50s.  Other factors  may play in here too:  1). # of times Restless, 2).  # of times Awake, 3).  Total time in bed, and # 4).   Actual time asleep.

      I am unable to tell if there is a relationship between some these numbers which may determine Sleep Efficiency %

    Go to www.Fitbit.com

Log on at the right side, At next screen enter your name (or email) + your password. enter

   Next screen, click "Log" near upper left, then click Sleep.  Your Sleep Efficiency % should in a panel with Zzzzzz

     I hope this helps

I want to bump this topic up and see if I can get a better sense of what a normal score is. I use the sensitive setting (which I just found out is kind of irrelevant since Fitbit stores both the Sensitive and Normal results and it is more of a difference in the view). But in terms of comparing myself to others, I am curious to hear what people tend to get on average. I can get my score into the 80s% with pre-bedtime meditation and other ideal conditions, but it is hard to keep it there consistently. 

I usually average in the mid, to low-70s. but it goes between 50 and 80 night to night. 

What is your average?
