Does Beeline drain the phone battery?

[Berin]

Thinking of adding a beeline to my t120 Bonny which has no power sockets.

Can anyone that uses one tell me how much it drains the phone battery please?

I get about 5 hours on my iPhone 8 with a new battery.

Beeline's tech speak says that its not so much navigating that drains your phone battery, but the constant turning on of the phone screen. So while that's exactly how beeline navigates - it just replicates your phone's nav information - it doesn't drain the phone battery.

I'd agree, I don't think it kills the phone unacceptably fast.

My Beeline is about 3 years old now and I’ve never had a problem with it draining the phone battery when used for all day rides in Europe. I wouldn’t worry about it.
