Re: New toy! (PM5 monitor)

Mardix, I'll do that (and I'll create a "SkiErg cross training thread", if it does not exist). Promised. :fsbgrin:

Paul : You're really putting in huge meterage Boris and at a very respectable pace. I can see you doing some very fast TTs if you decide to tackle the middle to longer distances head on. Awww… What are for you "middle to longer distances"? It was quite hot and humid and I tried slowing do...

Re: New toy! (PM5 monitor)

Under normal circumstances, a set of Alkaline D cell batteries should last in a PM3 or PM4 for about 350 hours of operational time, and about 200 hours of operational time in a PM5.

Re: New toy! (PM5 monitor)

Yes, me. But already at 80% battery capacity. Buying a new pair of D cells helped.

Seems the backlightning, Bluetooth connection to my phone and the ANT+ connection to my watch chews up a lot of battery.
