Pout Disable

Post by vmi2uscg »

I would like to disable the Pout function on my iBike as I don't have a GPS or similar device to receive the xmitted data. I'm hoping this would save battery power.

I can't find anything in the iBike computer software nor in the menus on the unit itself nor on the forums.

Any tips? Thanks.

Hi, I don't think that this is a big battery culprit, If you really want to maximize the battery life on the GenIII try switching your "rec int rate" from 1second to 5seconds. You will still have real time data on the iBike unit being displayed, however, in the background, it will only be saving it in 5 second intervals, which is plenty sufficient for base training, and if you race, you can switch it back to 1 sec, to see the ride in its entirety. In the 1 sec rate you are probably seeing 10-12 hours of battery life in the unit, and mount. In 5 second rate, it will be upwards of 50+ hours. Hope this helps.
