Do the following: 1) Press-hold your PP button for 12 seconds, until the light goes out briefly and turns back on. This does a hard reset of your device 2) Connect your PP to Isaac and use the command Device/Erase all Ride Files. This removes old ride files 3) Use the command Edit/Edit Profiles/Get ...

Re: battery charge level?

It should turn off after 20 minutes of zero speed, but like you I click the button 5 times to turn my unit off manually.

We do show battery charge level in the Garmin details. It is a pain to get to that page so I just turn off my unit manually.

I've had similar issues with mine where either it will show 0W when I start a ride and so press 5 times to shut down and then one to restart. Sometimes works. Otherwise a soft r...

Re: PowerPod showing extremely high wattage numbers midway through rides.

If you're pedaling on a downhill because you are working hard to go even faster, then by all means pedal. Just be aware that, unless your unit is precisely calibrated, you may have inaccurate power readings. My experience, however, is that it is extremely difficult to pedal hard/fast enough to add m...

Re: PowerPod showing extremely high wattage numbers midway through rides.

Things are OK. There is no problem with your accelerometer. On downhills everything has to be in perfect balance in order to obtain around zero watts when soft pedaling. In your case the wind calibration seems low (there is a near constant tail wind). This means that downhill gravity acceleration is...

Re: PPV5 change profile after ride

I looked at your ride file. When you use analytical commands, such as "Switch Profile after the Ride", Isaac reprocesses raw data from your unit, basically recreating in your computer the calculations your unit does on the road. I agree there is a difference but I can't explain why. Most l...

Re: Very High Watt numbers.

Your PP recalibrated itself during the first 90 seconds of your ride. After that 90 seconds all is well.

If you keep PP attached to your bike, you shouldn't have any recalibration problems.

Re: Very High Watt numbers.

Unfortunately, it's impossible to tell what is going on without a ride file.

Connect your unit to Isaac and do a "Device/Erase all ride files" command.

It's possible that the full memory is screwing up things.

Do a short ride and post it; that will allow me to figure out what is going on.
