If you suspect there's something specific to run+ maybe you could try using the run app for some runs to verify if that's the case. If so we could look at the code specific to run+.
I don't see why they should behave very differently with regards to power load. But if they do that's interesting.
As discussed in various places, the battery indication will vary with power load. So particularly if you use both GPS and HRM (and especially if the screen is kept on) it will dip compared with lighter loads.
Also, if the watch gets significantly colder (if it's exposed to cold weather while exercising maybe) I think that could affect the indication as well. But your body heat should probably even this out.
