It's time for another rabbit hole curiosity post: Which has better battery life - the COROS Dura (with Solar), or the Garmin Edge 1040 Solar? While I have tons of data over the years, I went out for a clean ride with the latest updates to see the results: www.dcrainmaker.com/2026/06/rabb...

Thank you Ray, very timely information as I'm weighing those two up for bikepacking.

It's a shame to hear how poor the Wahoo's battery life is. Wahoo seems to have never recovered from their experience with private equity. The Ace/Wahoo app are disappointing, they're slow to roll out updates/features, and they seem to be abandoning customers with older products.

My personal experience with Roam v1 and v2 has been lackluster as 2 units have developed the annoying habit of taking 8-20 minutes to acquire a GPS signal. Unless they start getting stellar reviews, I'll be moving on the next time I need a new head unit.
