Unexpected overnight battery drain with only the refrigerator on
4 months ago
Charged Pebble to 99% to keep refrigerator on. Overnight it lost 14%.

80–90, but camper in the shade so no solar power.
Just the refrigerator.
Wonder if there’s a software update that might be able to minimize the SOC overnight drawdown a bit?
Yeah. We were surprised when we checked the freezer to find food kind of defrosted. Tried using 110V and it provides enough to run the refrigerator and slowly charge the camper. Would be nice to get a notification that battery has dropped below 80%!
The iPhone app shows SOC just like the iPad app does. For overnight (or unattended) energy conservation, select Energy Savings / 110 Off. The fridge is not affected. At 20% SOC all but the fridge (and computer, I presume) should automatically shut down. This is my current understanding, but Pebble seems to be continually tweaking the software.
Hopefully the iPhone app in beta testing will show battery percentage.

Thank you for the info. I did have Energy Saving / 110 Off and the battery wasn’t lower than 30%. It’s weird but will monitor the system. Currently at 98% at 8:19 PST, so will see where it is in the morning. The fridge is the only thing on.
…running…what? HVAC? In what ambient temperature? Other equipment running besides fridge?
