I am owner of a FITBIT surge and a FITBIT blaze.

Leaving for holidays in a few days, I reflect how to charge these trackers without having a computer/

laptop available with me. 

Will loading equipment from APPLE iPhones (SE and/or 6) work and provide the correct voltage ?

Thanks for any usefull help.

Hey there @Pete55, welcome to the Fitbit Community Forums! 🙂

I'd like to help you out with this.

Even when we recommend plugging your charging cable into a USB port on your computer or other low-energy device, you can also use a UL-certified USB wall charger as an Apple charging cube. Don't use a USB hub or battery pack to charge, and only use the charging cable that came with your device.

Hope this helps. Let me know if you need anything else!

Can you tell me what Fitbit means by ‘another low-energy device’? Also, why is a battery or power pack not recommended as these are surely designed to charge all usb-powered devices? Would they not qualify as low-energy devices in that case? Thanks.
