Display Back Light Illuminating Frequently

[jones139]

V1.5.0b: On my Forerunner 245 the back-light illuminates more frequently when GarminSD is running than when the watch face is displayed.

Could this be a significant contribution to battery life (battery fell from 100% to 45% in 6 hours, so about 9 hours battery life, which is poor (ViviactiveHR has over 24 hours battery life)

@pmithrandir - do you see this?

Not new, just noticed the light was on so might be a conrtibutor to #24

No, it's not recent, but I just noticed it. I still don't know why some watches use up battery life much quicker than others.
