I have a theoretical question. Let’s say I want to install a different battery with more capacity in my r1. Would that be technically possible?
I mean, are there any things in the software or the rest of the r1’s hardware that could make this impossible or even dangerous?
I mean, of course, something like that would always be at my own risk, but is there perhaps a specific battery (model, type, etc.) that might even be compatible?
or even better when the unit is not being used it doesn’t use up 10% of it’s power during the night even though it is sitting there doing nothing
But I think that if the responsible developers were to start optimizing of this issue it, it would clash with many expectations of other members of the community regarding the desired functionality.
Hi @leahcim we do not recommended replacing the battery on your own.
I’m aware of that, I’m assuming that there were good reasons for installing this exact battery with this exact capacity in r1, but I’d just be interested to know whether you could install a different battery in r1 at your own risk, but one that would still be compatible with the hardware. Although that is obviously not recommended. It’s a shame that there aren’t any nuclear batteries yet, given all the garbage in the environment and all the pollutants we’re all exposed to every day. It wouldn’t make any difference, but you would never have to charge your devices and the batterys would never run out. 
somebody has been working on that. they managed to get a larger battery in but couldnt fully close the unit. They had a case on so didnt care about it not fitting exactly. its on the rabbitude discord
Could you add a link to it please?
Battery life is exceeding it’s capacity to respond to questions in a useful way. How many minutes do you use this productively per day?
good question
Very good question, a kind of dashboard where you could see something like that would be good. I already made a suggestion for that.
I got mine yesterday. Over the span of two days I’ve had to charge it 3 times per day. I noticed overnight it loses 10% battery life while just being idle for around 7 hours when I was asleep. I mean its still very new and exciting to me so I’ve been using often. I really hope they release a larger battery that can be swapped out. It is impossible to take it out on an adventure and not need to charge it within 3 hours, which is terrible. I’d like for it to last atleast 6 hours on a full charge with frequent use. The only way around this is to bring a portable battery to recharge it and that just seems sloppy to me considering I already have my phone and R1 with me. Having to lug around another item just for charging the R1 is a bummer.
I think you can add an external power bank or I think a valid solution could be this:
What do you think about this solution? You will make the rabbit r1 with a wireless charging too 
A case that has a battery built into it would work too and if it had wireless charging that would be an added bonus.
Well after the last updates I think @rabbit has really got it right with the battery life! I’m currently very happy! Don’t you agree?
I found the new update a little bit like as you said… is better than before… but I need to recharge at least 2 times at day… 1 for the morning and 1 for the afternoon…
Hi,
in Oct 2024 I did the following battery test with 30-40% brightness:
I will do an other new test in the near feature.
