PowerPod V5 - Blocked Port
Posted: Wed Aug 02, 2023 3:03 pm
Hi
The attached two files are my ride in and ride back from work today. It was very wet on the ride in and you can see the wind port gets blocked. However, I thought the new firmware allowed for this by using wheel speed to calculate power.
Then on the ride home the port still appears to be blocked for half the ride. However, for the whole ride the PowerPod is showing power well above what it should be (I thought blocked post always showed lower power as it does in the morning ride). It was fairly strong wind conditions today, about 15mph with a headwind into work and a tailwind going home.
Any ideas why it did not allow for the blocked port and why the power is so high in the afternoon file?
Regards
