So I've had my Sena 10U in my Shoei Neotech for just over a year now. Most of my riding is a short commute to work. When I get the low battery message I charge it to capacity, not paying attention to how long the battery life is over the multiple trips back and forth.
Last weekend a couple of buddies and I went on an all day ride. One has a Sena 20S and the other a Sena 10R. All of them got a full charge prior to the ride and we were intercommed up. We rode for about 3.5 hours and stopped for lunch. We continued our ride after eating and about an hour or less into it I got the battery low message. Ten minute after that the thing went dead.
Emailed Sena and was told to do a fault reset. (Not sure how that affects battery life, but okay). This Friday I will be bringing the helmet into work. My coworker (who has the 20S) will bring his in also, we'll set up the intercom and let them sit to see how long mine lasts. By the way, after I lost my battery they continued intercom service until the ride end, about 8 hours.
Anybody have an experience with short battery life on a 10U?
