Sorry guys, i thought i already updated my Watch OS version to the latest one but when I checked, it was on hold because it needs to be charged while updating but I don’t think I will update to 10.1.1 as it might screw up my battery life. Lol

Everything on except AOD. Series 9.

Series 7 45mm on 10.2, AOD on. 23% drain in 8.5 hours = 36 hour battery life.

It really does not work like that...if 10%=3 hours it doesn't mean that 100%=30 hours (small example). As the battery percentage is lower, it's voltage gets lower aswell. The watch still demands the same power from the battery so the battery struggles to provide it, therefore getting discharged faster. You will notice your phone or your watch going drained faster from 30% to 10% than from 100% to 70%

I thought the percentage is calibrated for remaining Wh? Surely it’s not a dumb linear measurement of voltage.
