After one week - Blase Corrosion

Replies are disabled for this topic. Start a new one or visit our Help Center.

I am curious if anyone else has had issue with their Blase forming corosion on the back.

 

I wear mine all the time, removing it to charge ti while I shower, or while sitting at my desk at work. Today when I went to put it on I noticed the sensor pad on the back has what appears to be some form of corrosion. 

 

Beyond dishing washing, i cant think of anytime i have had my band wet or incontact with any kind of chemicals and no other part of the device is showing any other unusual signs of wear!? Has any one else seen this?  And how do you go about getting a Blaze fixed?

Does it wash off?

Sin tan Leon has been known to do this, or could it be hand lotion, I'd it is the soap it should wash off.

I dont use any forms of loation, or oils on my skin.  It will not wash off, or even rub off.  My comment about soap was not to imply i dunk the watch, or even really wet it.  Being that I work in an office at a desk, just saying I dont come into contact with chimicals I can think of that would cause this.

I was mentioning what has been known to adjective the Charge HR, HR senser.

If it doesn't wash off, then something either scraped it ar ate it.

In either case it sounds like you want to read yhe Warranty, link found below, and contact.fitbit.com

I can't really tell from the photo but if it's not abrasion, looks like salt residue from dried sweat. I'd have thought it should come off with a mild alcohol wipe
