I still have a bunch of photos that I have not uploaded from my vacation in the mountains. So many photos that I have to carefully curate them to a succinct few for posting. While working on that I want to report on an experiment that I preformed on my 10 day trip. The Pebble Time Steel which I had recently received boasts a 10 day battery life. Coincidentally the length of the trip I was about to embark on.

Could I go the entire trip, Friday to Sunday without charging it?

No, I couldn’t. At 10:43am on the last Saturday of the trip the watch gave out. But 9 of the promised 10 days isn’t bad.

Interestingly enough the Pebble still functions as a regular digital watch when the battery hits zero. I wounder if it would have lasted another day in that state?
