7.7.Conserving Battery Power
●
Normally the biggest power consumer (besides the backlight) in a Smartphone is the
GPS module (with built-in GPS devices). It makes sense to turn off GPS when you
don't need it (if you disconnect the GPS in Run.GPS , the module will be turned off
automatically and stop consuming battery power).
●
During a training you can turn off WLAN/WiFi because you don't need it. You could
also turn off Bluetooth and the phone if you don't need those.
●
If you use online features like LiveTracking,
loading online maps on demand and so on,
the devices
GPRS or UMTS connection is
often used, which costs really much battery
power. Especially if you use LiveTracking and
set the interval to 5 sec.
●
Turn off the backlight when the application is
locked. If you choose “turn off screen
completely” the display will be completely
dark and the touchscreen deactivated. It can
be reactivated only by using the hardware
keys.
●
When the Run.GPS application is not visible (screen turned off or application in
background), Run.GPS will use much less
CPU power, because it does not need to
render maps, values, diagrams etc. This can also save a lot of battery power.
●
If these measures are not enough, you might consider using an extra battery or
mobile USB charger (e.g. from „Varta“).
