Has anyone else stopped using their battery complication because you end up with plenty of battery at the end of the day anyways?

I end up with about 54% on the dot before I go to bed each night so I figured why bother even checking, now I have an extra complication slot. :cool:
 
Yep, me too. The only way I come close to getting the battery low is if I run the exercise app for 3+ hour bike rides. In normal daily use, even with an hour of exercise, I still have 40% more left. So no reason to have the battery complication.
 
No I haven't. Despite the fact I don't run out of charge in a typical day I still like to know how much charge I have left and to me it is neccessary to have.
 
Just turned it off today, not sure I can keep it off though, I obsess over things like that.
 
I turned it off a week ago and am just using the battery glance now. The battery life lasts plenty fine during a typical day for me so there's no need for the constant reminder of the percentage on my watch face.
 
Just turned mine off. I haven't had many days where it was less than 45% or so at the end of the day. I don't really feel I need it anymore.
 
Turned mine off a week or two ago and put it in "Glances". A few days ago I removed it from that. I just don't need it, and like it has already been said, the extra complication is nice.
 
I turned it off after a week or so. I do kind of wish that there was a way to get a notification when you reached, say, 50% remaining, or to have a very compact indicator that didn't take up a whole complication slot. It's generally no problem, but once after a busy day that included a workout I was pretty surprised to see that I was dangerously low late in the day.
 
I also get around 50% battery left at the end of the day which is surprisingly good :) Brightness at maximum.
 
I stopped thinking about the battery long ago. Never had the watch die on me yet and it's only gone into reserve once.
 
I don't have any complications on my watch at all, other than the date.

I keep the battery level in glances though, and I have never had it below 40% even after a day of heavy use.
