Anyone else having battery issues? I’ve had this helmet/comms combo for a few months now and I have to charge it before I go out otherwise it can be completely flat if not used for a while, even though it was definitely switched off.
I’ve had it on for several (5-7) hours whilst out on the bike and hasn’t gone flat, if charged beforehand but it then takes quite awhile to recharge.
I’m wondering if the battery in the main part is replaceable.
 
I have the same comms in the same lid. Battery will last me a day and a half. It doesn’t run down when switched off.

Only issue I had this year was that I thought I had an issue but it was the remote battery that needed replacing.

I have this unit in my E2.

The battery does seem to hold charge better if it's been on a slower charger.... If I've charged it with my fast phone charger it doesn't seem to last as long.
 
No issues with mine 18 months in. It still has all day+ battery life.

I have left my lid/headset dormant the past 6 weeks (and fully charged it before), a quick check shows it's still at 91% battery life.
 
Mine can go from fully charged to completely flat just sat switched off for a week or two.
Is the battery in the main bit replaceable? I’ve replaced the remote one.

They have a 2 year warranty - probably worth contacting them if it seems to be down on battery life.

Is your firmware up to date?
 
I updated the firmware when I got it a few months ago but will check it again. I don’t know how old it is because I bought it used and the Sena/Schuberth site asks where and when it was bought new.
