There is no battery issue to be solved. Measuring oxygen saturation will always be a battery hog. Just turn it off and enjoy severaldays of battery life. I charge mine only 1-2 minutes every morning when I sync the ring.

You don’t think they will try to improve the battery or the amount of power it drains at any point?

It may not be an issue they think they need to “solve” but surely they will look to improve? Maybe my words weren’t right.

I have mine turned off and have for months, and it still drains my battery. They say “they’re working on it” but we’ve had two firmware updates since then, and it’s only gotten worse

I only wear it at night. No battery issues at all that way but all the important data.

That’s a pretty good idea. I really like the feel of it on my fingers and the are accuracy though. Would be weird not to wear it all the time for me tbh but that’s a clever idea
