Live Tracking using a Wahoo
Do any of you use the Live Tracking on a Wahoo device? If so, can you give an estimate of how much % wise it drains your battery?
Thanks,
Jim

I have and it seems to not affect it too badly, but I've never tried to do a 15 hour ride yet to test the roam's battery life.
That said, the live tracking works through the phone (like many other features with the wahoos) and on my longest-yet rides of 6 hours or so the worst drain on the battery was the cell phone being out of range most of the day and the cell-service search used a LOT more battery than all of the roam's connected features.
How big is your phone's battery? lol
