<![CDATA[Battery drainage?]]>Hi,
today I've done more or less 250 km navigating a route that I previously did, all with the new app, I started with 87% of battery on my phone (6000mAh), also had my Sena intercom connected and received one phone call of 5 minutes, no stops just once for refueling, and the phone was at 10% when there were still 80km for reaching my destiny.
Maybe is my new phone, that I have to check how others apps are draining the battery, but just curiosity if it has happened to someone else or it's just me.
As I say, I have just change phone two weeks ago, so I cannot compare the life of the battery between my old phone and the new one.
Regards.

I use quadlock wireless charger on the bike and in my car and wired charger and carplay in the wifes car

I do know that if I leave my phone in my topbox still with the screen on at a stop the battery will drain by about 10% at a short stop.

I would check your battery usage on the phone itself and see if there is anything else running in the background draining it too.

Gebruik sinds kort een ander navigatie systeem een Carpuride W702 Plus versie daar heb je tefoon niet meer nodig, op de Carpuride installeer je de MRA myroute app, voor online verbinding gebruik je hotspot van je telefoon die kun je automatisch zetten zodra de Carpuride start gaat Hotspot ook aan, een dag navigeren maar 20 % verbruikt althans bij mij in de praktijk en tefoon wordt niet warm.
En gebruik ook sinds kort een nieuwe samsung A57 de oude was al 6 jaar oud.

It just to know if some else has noticed something similar.

There is too many variables to say if the battery drain is good or not but for me I would never use any sort of navigation device without power applied to charge it
