This testing is great. Mine comes in tomorrow so we are learning together. Can't wait for the next few tests and updates.

I have it for a few days now and want to test some things as well before I take it on my first tour. That said though, although I had let sit at the window all day (didn't go out much since work from home) it really has issues sending status reports. I had it charged one evening to 100% and the next day it was down to 30%. Trying to re-send its report. I had to turn off sounds as well because the "was not able to send" sound woke me up a couple of times. I think my go2 will be to just turn it off overnight when I sleep.

I also tried to load it overnight today asI wanted to see how far one of my powerbanks will last me realistically. I had to turn off sounds again. Because you can not load the device while its powered off. So it was trying to send data again but also failed often. Also, loading the mini2 as well as my iPhone (roughly 60% battery left), went through almost half of my 26800mAh power bank.. I assume it was because the mini 2s energy consumption when it can not reach the network and will try and try again?

Do you have any other tips for energy saving? I want to last roughly 9 days without being able to recharge my powerbanks. And I have to charge my phone, my watch and the mini2. The mini2 does make me concerned right now in that regard..
