Hello,

I have an ELEMNT BOLT V2 GPS BICYCLE COMPUTER. Now I'm planning a longer bike tour with breaks. The bike computer stays on. Can you turn off the bolt to save power and then reactivate it to continue recording?

Best regards

It does continue your workout when you turn off and on the device, within a certain time window. I thought it was a couple of hours. Just be wary not to stop the activity after pausing.

I do find the bolt loses the cycling category when doing this, it defaults to ‘other’. It is not a mega concern, all metrics are still present.
