Wahoo Element Bolt

I think a field destroy is Wahoo asking you to destroy your current device in order for them to sent a new one for warranty purposes. You have to proof you've destroyed the device by providing pictures with the serial number visible.

Might be a niche problem here.
Had my element bolt about 2 years now and not had any real issues with it.
The last 2 road races I've done it has frozen at the start, doesn't allow a forced reset or anything and then eventually catches up with any button presses about half an hour later then works fine. Any ideas what this may be?
I've done plenty of circuit races and no issues here but fields are less with around 30 instead of 80

Does anyone charge their new Bolt with USB-C to USB-C cable and charger? I'm having issues getting it to charge to 100% and it appears it might be an issue with how the bolt manages its charging voltage over USB-C. USB-A to USB-C cables with standard 5V chargers appear to work normally. I've seen mixed reports though.
I have had some issues with USB-A to USB-C as well, a replug did the job every time.

What on earth happened to repairing stuff or am I screaming nonsense here? They should refurbish the unit.

I sent them an email. They also use magnets in the packaging for the new Bolt, making it very hard to recycle.MrCurrieinahurry wrote: ↑Tue Aug 10, 2021 6:21 amYea be nice if they were refurbed and past on to junior racers or something like that.

Slightly off topic, but does anyone else have issues with their HRM or speed sensor working properly, with their Roam after the latest update? My HRM is brand new and continues to give very weird readings (e.g. 80 bpm with a max 1 mins effort, and 160 bpm while noodling along at 100 watts) after I updated my Roam about 2 weeks ago (ELEMNT ROAM WR18-13127 - 6 August, 2021)
My speed senor is also dropping out and giving irregular readings after the same update.
Thanks.

I have not the same issue that you mention, but since this update (WR18-13127 - 6 August, 2021) my avg cadence from Assioma Duo is always at 68/69 rpm (whatever cadence in my ride) on Wahoo only while with strava or intevarls.icu show right cadence (almost 90 rpm). I turn off "0 rpm in avg cadence" but that the same issue.
I don't know what I can do...
Probably the issue comes from this update ? And all we have different issue ?
I have just opened a ticket with my problem. I will tell you if Wahoo give me information about related problems !

Thanks for the update. I don't have any issues with my Assioma Duo after this update. Just my speed and HRM is out of whack. I will also open a ticket with wahoo about this problem as well.Takeswood wrote: ↑Mon Aug 16, 2021 12:11 pmI have not the same issue that you mention, but since this update (WR18-13127 - 6 August, 2021) my avg cadence from Assioma Duo is always at 68/69 rpm (whatever cadence in my ride) on Wahoo only while with strava or intevarls.icu show right cadence (almost 90 rpm).
