Battery draining issues

[deadoc]

Once again I find myself complaining about the fact the battery on my new Fitbit Blaze drains twice in a 24 hour period. It just will not hold a charge ... very very frustrating.

I am a loyal Fitbit user but at this point I am just going to have to find another watch/fitness tracker as it is clear this is a problem across the board. Maybe if Fitbit gets it together I will come back ... but for now I am sad to no longer have my Fitbit.

I am also having this problem... My blaze used to last 4 days easily (I do 2-3 hours exercise a day) now I barely get 24 hours, I'm not doing anything differently... This started happening a week or two ago..

I bought mine on Saturday and have had to charge it each day despite following the instructions when initially charging it. I’m not happy about it that’s for sure. Considering returning it cause it’s annoying having to constantly charge it despite adjusting all the settings to optimize battery life

I’m having the same problem. I had the blaze, was having problems and was given a replacement, only recently.....and again I’m having the same problems!  I think Fitbit must have a faulty batch. I charged mine fully on the Tuesday night and the battery was dead by the Friday morning!  I could understand if I was getting lots of steps in/doing active minutes, but I didn’t make my step target once on these days (my target is 9k a day as I work in an office) and I only did about 15 active mins!  I paid a lot of money for it and don’t appreciate having to charge it every couple of days even when I’m not active!  Honestly, it’s putting me off having a Fitbit. I had a charge previously and never have any software problems with it, but I’ve had problems since day one with the blaze! Very disappointing.

I'm thinking you may be right....definitely either a bad batch or their product quality has gone down 110%. Let's hope they fix it and send us all new pebbles we can actually use!

Just out of curiosity, do you all have the 'Bluetooth Classic' setting to 'On' or 'Off'?

HI

Thanks for the idea...I have turned it off and will see if it makes a difference to the battery draining....hopefully that is the problem....
