Hi @Djr2 the powering off - are you able to see anything on the screen? As for the band, can you show us a picture? Here is the Alta HR user manual and related help articles link - click to go there. Is it possible you're still under warranty?

you posted right before I did! Well, the bands are easy to find. You can get them from a third party seller, such as Amazon. They retired the Alta series.

@Djr2 customer support is the one to ask about it. They can tell from your charging it up how things are going. I know the wait time is longer for them, but it might be a way to know for sure what's happening.

Ok. So maybe worked for other people but mine turns off randomly and during workouts. Although I think I need a whole new component I am still trying to fix the one that I have now. Can anyone help?
