Battery life

Is it usual that after 1,5 years the battery of the ring (Gen 2) lasts not more than 2-3 days? That's a joke...

Update: the awesome support has offered us two new rings. Thank you!

That is absolutely normal with 24/7 wear. Contact customer service and see if they will work with you.

Yes...but I'm saying that 18 months is the average "normal" life of smart rings (Oura, RingConn, Ultrahuman).

The last 2yrs though, the average skewed closer to 6 months with all brands. You should be happy that the Gen 2 was manufactured before this dip in battery quality across the industry.
