    The battery in my headunit seems to drain within a few days... I used it on Thursday, was away all weekend and when I went to use it tonight the battery was dead.

    This is the third time now... first time I put it down to the battery it was shipped was old.. second time I thought it may have been from storing it in the docking cradle so I stopped leaving it in this.

    Antone else come accross this before? Google has no answers.

    Shouldn't have that issue. I think it took at least 6 months for mine to die...

    Battery quality is important.

    make sure you have the sleep period set to 1 min on the head unit

    Sleep is set to one min, the latest battery was robbed from my old HRM strap.. hopefully that was the cause this time :rolleyes:

    Is the turbo+battery out in the cold? Extended periods of cold will drain a battery very quickly.
