The Power Of A Long Watch Battery Life

For older adults and people living with dementia, a care watch is only effective when it is being worn and ready to help. Yet many care watches with an always-on mobile connection last just 24 hours to three days before needing a recharge. This creates a daily challenge: keeping the device charged without leaving the wearer unprotected.

More time on the wrist, less time charging

A long-lasting battery makes a meaningful difference. With 120+ hours of battery life, the Companion Watch can remain on the wrist for more than five days between charges. This reduces charging interruptions, makes daily routines simpler and helps ensure the watch is there when it is needed.

This extended battery life is made possible by eDRX technology, available through LTE-M connectivity. eDRX allows the watch to remain reachable over the mobile network while reducing how frequently its radio needs to listen for incoming communications. The result is a balance of continuous availability and efficient power consumption.

Protection through the night

The importance of long battery life becomes particularly clear overnight. Falls can happen at any time, including during nighttime trips to the bathroom, when an older person may be alone and vulnerable.

A watch that needs to be removed and charged overnight cannot provide protection during those hours. By reducing the need for frequent charging, a long-lasting care watch helps keep emergency assistance within reach, day and night.

Confidence that lasts

Long battery life is more than a convenient feature. It supports consistent wear, reduces the risk of a device being unavailable when an emergency occurs, and gives families greater peace of mind.

With 120+ hours of battery life, the Companion Watch is designed to stay on the wrist and ready to help — especially when it matters most.
