Fragile Do Not Bend Jan 2022 6:04pm, 21 Jan 2022 9,129 posts	Fragile Do Not Bend My 45s has it but I only wear it when running or walking so it’s not a feature I’ve ever paid much attention to.

Fully charged it was 11days but I’ve been faffing a lot the last few hours. I’ve knocked it off for now I’ll probably add it back of when it needs charging again.

geordiegirl Jan 2022 12:07pm, 22 Jan 2022 17,077 posts	geordiegirl Oh I find it cleaner than my 6 but not really been outside much with it I’ll have a play and let you know.

geordiegirl Jan 2022 1:05pm, 24 Jan 2022 17,085 posts	geordiegirl quimby I have been out about the last few days I would say making a conscious effort that there may be more reflection but I don’t think I’d have noticed there isn’t much in it The battery life is so much better. Need to work out what the solar intensity/luxe hours means in additional charge.
