With the screen off a Teric should lose no more than 5-10% a week. If you lose more than that contact Shearwater for a battery replacement, there was a known batch of bad batteries.

Also it’s begs the question that say I’m on a average two tank dive where it’s on my wrist and on ( not in dive mode)from 7am to 1pm. And about 2 hours of OC REC diving (dive mode) the battery will drop to around 65%. Is that normal or should I be sending it back. I’ve owned it for just under a year now
Very bad! Many of us have had Teric batteries replaced (and other related electronics) - some more than once. Your Teric appears to have a severe case of this battery drain issue.Hmm well few I mean like 5 days of none use it dies. That’s bad?
I never let mine get below 40% before topping it off.From the manual.

Battery Care
Lithium-ion batteries, such as the one in the Teric, can be damaged if completely discharged. The Teric has internal protection which disconnects the battery before complete discharge occurs. However, a small amount of self-discharge still occurs, which can lead to complete discharge and subsequently battery damage if stored for long periods without recharging.
To prevent damage to the battery please do the following: 1) Fully charge the Teric prior to storage 2) Top up the Teric battery every 6 months
