Starting from this digital watchface customized by @Cavs 👍, I made some slight changes:
- removed dark dim mode
- removed some options to help the battery
- made the digital screen background brighter, to make it easier to read in dim mode
- made the ucolor outer ring and horizontal stripes thicker (it works better that way in the new dim mode)
- added watch % battery level in dim mode
and some other minor change

Cavs gave me permission to publish it unlocked.
We hope MS respects the work of previous authors 😉:

If I understand correctly your gen 2 battery lasts 20 hours? if so, it is normal, I think that the gen 2 last more or less those hours

20 + Hr for stock face , but < 5 for watch maker ones, like the purple Monaco ( see the battery graph) on similar always on/ gestures/ WiFi / 15 % max brightness on dim mode / 3 sec awake time

certainly it is very little time with watchmaker... the monaco purple face does not have a very high consumption either...

could you try to reset the factory clock and calibrate the battery

After last WatchMaker app updates, my E2s are also consuming more battery than usual when using WatchMaker faces, but it’s fine -as always- when wearing the factory installed faces. The difference is not so big as in your case (around 20h or some more hours with official faces, and around 12-13h with WatchMaker faces with low consumption) but I also noticed this quite higher consumption with WatchMaker recently… 😒… I hope they fix it in future updates!

Après les dernières mises à jour de l'application WatchMaker, mes E2 consomment également plus de batterie que d'habitude lors de l'utilisation des visages WatchMaker, mais ça va - comme toujours - lorsque je porte les visages installés en usine . La différence n'est pas aussi grande que dans votre cas (vers 20h ou quelques heures de plus avec des cadrans officiels, et vers 12-13h avec des cadrans WatchMaker à faible consommation) mais j'ai aussi remarqué cette consommation assez élevée avec WatchMaker récemment… 😜rudent:… J'espère que ça va s'arranger dans les futures mises à jour !

Merci Philippe, so far I haven't needed to disable the 'Tilt to wake' option for the battery to last me a normal day, but with the current high consumption of the WatchMaker app, I may have to…

Anyway, I hope it's something temporary and that the WatchMaker developers solve the increased battery consumption that their app recently has!

Merci Philippe, jusqu'à présent je n'ai pas eu besoin de désactiver l'option 'Tilt to wake' pour que la batterie me dure une journée normale, mais avec le courant forte consommation de l'application WatchMaker, je devrai peut-être…

Quoi qu'il en soit, j'espère que c'est quelque chose de temporaire et que les développeurs de WatchMaker résolvent l'augmentation de la consommation de batterie que leur application a récemment subie !
Jamais depuis l existence de WM les batteries ont duré avec geste aux poignets et c est tout à fait normal le fait d allumer ou éteindre avec geste poignet c est très energivore nos FACES que l ont construit sont faites pour pallier surtout au problème de dim ( montre en veille ) car sur les faces Tag natives ce n est pas très joli par contre très économique

Yes, it is clear that 'Tilt to wake' consumes battery, but I have always had it connected on my E2 Modular 45 without it being a problem with the battery.

The point is that, with equal settings, WatchMaker now consumes considerably more battery than it did a few months ago. Watch faces that used to last 18 hours (with 'Tilt to wake' connected) now last 12 hours... while with the official faces the battery lasts the same as always (more than 20 hours). So I deduce that the problem of the lower battery life is with WatchMaker (not with the watch battery) after its latest updates. I hope they find it and fix it.
