How to boost your gadget battery performance during running

How to boost your gadget battery performance. WeAlwaysRun team, often have to run for longer distance, some of the team member  had found problem when their gadget battery drain to fast. It is a bad news for runner more than 1 hours and need to always to connect to satellite to access GPS location services. Accessing satellie signal needs extra power since the gadget had to transmit and receive signal to and from satellite. Its may be a simple problem if you only run less than 30 minutes since all gadget will easily cope with this need of power. But how if you need to run more than 2 hours with your gadget always connected to satellite, I myself had ever using small capacity battery and its really annoying when I had my gadget battery run out.

How to cope with this need of high battery power when you had to run longer in time and distance :

• Replace with high capacity battery. The problem will be easy if you are using high capacity battery, but because of time, usage, and charging / discharing recycle, your battery can be faster get lower and lower performance. 
• Using Powerbank, You can also use powerbank to recharge your gadget while running, but what do you think, it is little bit funny but this way is acceptable, but you have to use less weight powerbank, since the higher the capacity of the powerbank then the weight of powerbank will also be the problem if you do run. Maybe this solution will be less impact if you are biker using a mountain bike, since you can put the powerbank at the bag attached to your bike frame.
• Using Battery management apps to help better battery performance. One of battery management apps for Android that I had used is Battery Doctor. I can write a report on WeAlwaysRun blog next time.

The also important to gain more battery life is switching to some low power mode, some sport tracking application will offer this mode, just like only turn some minimum display timer, so your gadget screen will automatically turn off if not active in some minutes (based on your setting). If you use gadget for running track may be you had to rearrange what application installed at your gadget. For example if you are fully install all your social media account to your gadget for running then all those apps will access the network anytime to update data, this also consumpt extra power. You had to realize this fact, I had rearrange my "only for running" gadget with only some limited applications running apps, and some very important account that i had to be always connect. For other social media, for example for my business then I installed on my other gadget, that I put at home when I do running.
