I wanted to update my earlier review and note that this data field is now working great on my Edge 1040! I think it started working after an Edge 1040 firmware update to v20.19. One request: Can you add a 10 minute average field or better yet make the average duration a setting :-) ?

Works well on enduro May I ask if edge 130 can be supported in the future? :)

Great idea for a data field. Unfortunately, it doesn't work on my Edge 1040. All configurations of the data field count down initially saying e.g. Wait 60, Wait 59 (seconds). This is expected. When they get to "Wait 1" they get stuck indefinitely and never display power. If it helps, my Edge is on software version 19.22 (the latest available).
