Anyone try the ECG feature on the Apple Watch Series 4 yet? The feature was finally enabled and released a few days ago...

It works just fine as far as I can tell. I don't know much about EKG, but it tells me that I'll live :)

I've had a chance to mess around with it since its release. It works really well, though I'm not sure what to do with the data. Its still pretty cool having a device that can read EKG on your wrist.

Could not agree more. I've been messing around with it on my way from work in the subway - it is
trully a great feature, and it is FDA certified.
I can see a graph which can be exported to a PDF and sent to a doctor - impressive. I have never had a heart disease,
but for those who does it's a lifesaver together with the fall detection. Series 4 is a great upgrade.

Did you upgrades yours from a previous version of the Apple Watch? I ended up upgraded from series 3 to series 4 and unforunately get less battery life with the series 4. Thats my only complaint.

Haha, I have upgraded from OG model. The very first model Apple was trying to erase from history,
released even before Series 1. It is amazing how OG battery was holding even after all those years
of heavy usage. Series 4 battery can last about 2 1/2 days of light usage and 1
1/2 days if I use LTE to
stream music while my iPhone is in the locker and fitness tracker on.

Good to hear that the OG model battery was still able to last. Don't get me wrong, the battery life on my series 4 is really good. I get about the same as you -- 2 1/2 days worth, but I managed to go over three days on the series 3.
