Sentry mode doesn’t allow the main battery to sleep and will drain it. We recently left our Y for ten days with sentry mode off, and the battery barely moved.
I don't know when I'll have another chance to test this on mine but thanks.
You’re welcome
Ok so I turned off sentry mode last night after posting my last reply.
12hrs later the battery is down 1%.
Need to make sure that sentry mode is off at home.
Yeah that makes sense.
I've actually managed to let it sit unused for a few more days with sentry mode off. 48% now.
So this is better to see.
Actually has me wondering about a 4 day trip I did earlier in the year. Got home with air 10% left. Sentry mode was on the whole time. I probably could of gotten home with 40% if I'd left sentry mode off. It's a power hog.
Sentry mode drains the battery about 1% every two hours, give or take.
