Data field recommendation

Not sure if it’s already been asked or if there is a thread for data field recommendations, I couldn’t find any, so sorry if I’m making a repeat. Is it possible to add Intensity Factor (IF) to the lap data field options (last lap and current lap). This would tremendously help race pacing for me personally (and I’m sure anyone else who tries to pace races with IF changes in different sections of the race). Thanks!

  I will take it account in next Vin HkE release. Will add current lap IF.

  Awesome, thanks! One reason I’ve been hesitant to download VinHKE is battery draw. Is this a data field that would increase battery draw, and if so, how much (ie 30 minutes less battery life)?

  Any datapage that you add to your ride profile consume a litte of battery even if the page is not active. When more field you add more calculations and renderizations will be necesary, even if the page is not visible.

  A normal use of Vin HkE and headwind together drain a 10% more than normal for me. Is good for me for the additional features thats extensions bring.

  My K2 normally consumes 12% per hour, and my k3 consumes 9% per hour, both with map page active.

  IF lap is now available.

  This is very helpful! I will have to give Vin HKE a try! I tend to agree that the extensions are usually worth the battery drain, however, two different extensions (headwind on GitHub and windsock) have both resulted in about a 12-14% drain an hour on my K3 since the update last week. Weird thing is, headwind was fine before the update with a respectable 9% per hour. There’s a certain battery drain limit that’s too much for me, at 12-14% an hour I can’t get through some of my longer rides and races.
