Under LoRa settings turn off rx boosted gain and you will save some serious battery. It took my t1000e from 2 days 20h max to 3d 5hr max. Tjat one setting extended the battery by 9 hours.

The thing with the tag dying at 44% means the ADC override in power settings is too high. I think the default ADC is like 4.9.

Thanks for the heads up. I'm surprised it made that that much of a difference.
