    It says they’re able to extend the battery life from 7 days to a month due to how efficient the new Bluetooth chips are.

    You must have skimmed pretty fast.

      I did indeed skim pretty fast, but it doesn’t say that, it just says from 7 days to 30:

        Battery life: I’m really excited that battery life will be increased from 7 days to 1 month! This is due to massive improvements in Bluetooth chip power efficiency over the last 10 years.

        It’s further down the page.

          It’s damn near the very bottom lol, so I forgive myself for missing that. When I skim something for a product, I’m looking at the tech specs/BLUF message, not digging thru the entire page of text. Anyway, glad it’s all sorted out.
