    Hi, just got my instinct solar 2 days ago. Charged it overnight, the first night, wanted to check if it is ok to charge overnight as my battery life suddenly went to hours from days, within 48 hours of buying the product. I have googled and many pages state that with lithium batteries, it is impossible to overcharge. Just wanted to be sure I didn't spoil the battery and have just changed my backlight setting after watching this. Thank you

      Thanks for the comment. My understanding is the same in that you can not overcharge a lithium battery. I am still old school and try not to charge until the battery gets near dead but that is just because I like to see how long it can last between charges. Glad the video helped, enjoy your watch!

      Make sure you are completely stopping the activity and getting out of the activity screen. If it is running in the background it could be using your GPS or Pulse OX and thus draining your battery.

    I wish they will upgrade the instinct 2 solar build for stainless steel buttons and back opened with small screws and stainless Basel in the front.
    Like the Casio Potrek prw 3100 which has great case .
    The solar is huge since as a normal watch you do not have to use external charger which is a major major major yes why to buy it instead of the solar protrek.
    If Garmin will copy the Casio protrek prw 3100 case to the instinct 2 solar you will get the best army watch . People then will go with Garmin instead of Casio leaving Polar and Sunto field watches far being also in regard to casing durability .
    Today the opening of the Garmin instinct 2 is not very nice since there are no screws .
    Though no one will probably open a solar watch still it is nice to know it has screws for opening as a standard .

      It would be good to be able to open it easier to change the rechargeable battery. But Garmin doesn't want people doing this... so they have to buy new watches every few years.

    Hello Sir. You’ve helped me on several occasions, on your Jumble channel. I thought I was having battery issues so I’m here. My watch seems to only last 4-5 days. It’s been shutting off 1/2 way into my walk or run on the 4th or 5th day. So I watched this vid and will certainly try these fixes. However, tonight it again shut off 1/2 way through my 4 mile walk. I got home, plugged it in, and it turned back on and started to charge….. but said it was still at 22% and 4 days remaining. Any idea why it may be shutting off during a walking activity every four days or so……? Thank you for any help.
    Respectfully……

      Hum, I am not sure what is going on there. My recommendation would be to plug the watch into your computer and open Garmin Express to see if there are any updates. I know a lot of users do updates on the watch itself but I always prefer doing it with Garmin Express. My advice would be, power the watch off, plug it in to your computer, open Garmin Express, check for updates on the watch, install them all. . . then let it fully charge. . . then power back on. After that let me know what happens, now I am curious :)

    If we are going to turn off all the smart features on the watch, why should we pay so much for this watch?
    If we want to use all the features, why does the battery run out in 2 days?
    Let me answer for you. It's not smart to pay so much for this watch. 👎
