Battery Svae Mode, Auto function?
I would like to have an Auto function added to the battery save mode, so when the unit goes below say 20% of battery left, it enables the battery sve function automatically, and with the option to choose between auto battery save and manual auto battery save so I can choose if I want it to turn on below a specified % or if I want it to be active all the time.

Another request for an 'auto battery save function'
During a long wet ride at the weekend, despite the screen being set to minimum, all sensors/notifications off & Rain mode enabled, the battery was going down fast, but I estimated I'd just finish the route in time. However, It then flashed up 'Battery low' then rapidly turned right off. Due to the rain and being in an event there was no way I could have unlocked rain mode, disabled rain mode, and scrolled to enable battery save mode before it turned off. This was about 8 hours into the ride. Fortunately, I knew the rest of the route so could get back without needing the directions so got back OK.
A configuration option to enable the device to automatically enter battery save mode, and continue to give the turn-by-turn directions would really help. It would mean I could enjoy the excellent features of the Karoo2 when the battery allowed, then swap to battery save mode and ensure it directed me through the rest of the route.
Initially a configurable '%battery left' to set before switching would do, however when following a route the device already knows how far there is left, and what my speed & rate of climbing is, so could calculate when and whether it needs to swap to Battery Save to complete the ride!
