How can I remedy a short battery life?

Re: Short Battery Life, Help

I have tried all of what you recommended except for the tilt to wake. I love the watch but I do not wear it often because I look like a fool wearing a dead watch after about 4 to 5 hours.

I've noticed that on my Moto 360 2nd Generation watch the heart rate monitor green lights keep coming on every 5 minutes. I've read articles and watched videos about it happening, but no one seems to know how to turn it off. Currently, the only thing that has worked is disabling the Moto Body app on the watch itself. The only downside to this is you can't get steps or other readings.

I'm going to continue looking into this, as it seems to be a battery drain problem for some, though for me I don't want those green lights going off on my wrist every 5 minutes. I'd like to I would like to have the step counting continue, and be able to see my heart rate when I want it, every now and again, but it should only be an option to have it go off and monitor the way it does.

Also, the data the heart monitoring is taking every 5 minutes supposedly cannot be accessed by the user, so what is the use? Something is very fishy about that.
