Garmin 850 or other?

Currently using a forerunner watch for my recovery, but hate wearing it on rides and end up missing the ride stress whenever I do opt to not wear it. I currently use the old gen wahoo roam which I love, but would be open to upgrading to a garmin with them all being on sale (ideally a Karoo but that doesn’t fix my issue unless there’s something I’m missing).

For those who do longer races (8+ hours), do you feel the 850 in reduced battery life settings is sufficient? Look at the 840? I’ve thought about 1050 but on a mountain bike mount it looks huge.
