After dealing with this for months I am relieved to see this message. I know other have reported this in the past, but please also note that when the Fitbit app is running and paired to a blaze, Bluetooth audio streaming to something like a portable speaker or vehicle entertainment system get very skippy, you can't even listen to it. While the music is playing if you force stop the Fitbit app, the skipping stops immediately until the app restarts itself and reconnects to the blaze. If you uninstall the Fitbit app it also stops immediately, and permanently. This is another pretty deal-breaking problem, and could be related since frequent high-volume Bluetooth data transfer is likely to cause excessive battery drain.

It's great to welcome you @briandavid. If you are having issues with your Blaze battery life, I recommend taking a look at this post and follow the instructions provided there. After following those steps, please test your tracker. 

 

Let me know the outcome. Woman Happy
