Battery FIT

A Connect IQ data field that shows your device's battery to the percent during an activity — not in 20% steps — and records it into the FIT file, so you get a battery graph in Garmin Connect afterwards. Add a second line for discharge rate or an estimate of time remaining.

Battery you can actually trust

To the percent

A real 1% reading instead of coarse 20% steps — turn on a decimal place if you want it even finer.

Recorded into your FIT

Battery (and discharge rate) are saved into the activity file, so you get proper graphs in Garmin Connect after the ride or run.

Knows your drain

A second line can show short-term and average discharge in %/h, plus an estimate of how long you have left.

Fits any screen

The font auto-sizes to the largest that fits your data cell; works on watches and on Edge cycling computers.

Compatibility

Works on 141 Garmin devices

Watches and Edge cycling computers that support Connect IQ data fields, including Edge 530/830 and the x40/x50 series.
