Belt or Pocket clip for the Blaze

[jimmyg_1]

Does anyone know of a good pocket or belt clip for the Blaze. Sometimes I'd like to wear one of my regular watches but don't want to loose track of my steps.

It's great to see you around @jimmyg_1. There's no a belt clip for the Blaze but I think it would be great to have one. There's already a request made about this. I recommend checking this idea vote for it and leave your comment. 

Keep the stepping up!

I found a perfect solution. I ordered a Lighter Belt Clip on Amazon. It fits perfectly and works great clipped on to your belt. Of course the HR can't read when its in the case, but just use your phone to see step count. You can also remove the clip and just keep the case and Blaze in your pocket. There are may colors and styles to choose from and the price is under $8.00. The link below is the one I'm using

Below is what I did.  Pulled the cord from an extra charger and added a belt clip.

I use a cigarette lighter belt clip I found on Amazon. It works great.

@rsilva708 very inventive.

My only concern would be if you bumped up against something and the charger box opened so the Blaze would fall out of it.

Look in to a cigarette lighter belt clip. They can be found on Amazon. I've been using one for months and it works great. They are under $10

@rsilva708 @jimmyg_1 I hope you're doing well! Those are very interesting ideas on how to wear the Blaze. However, I won't recommend doing that as there is a chance that the Blaze will fall. The problem is that if it gets lost like that, there won't be a replacement option! 

See you around! 

[jimmyg_1]

The cigarette lighter belt clip is really strong. It also has a heavy snap closing it. The fit inside is comfortably snug. Honstly its more secure in the clip than on my wrist.You can recommend or not but I searched for months because I sometimes need to wear a watch and love my Blaze. I was almost going to go back to my older Fitbit  until I found this. If you have a better solution I'd love to hear about it.

great ideas!  Thanks.  I have been resorting to pulling it out of my wrist band and placing it in my bra (on top of to breast - to avoid sweat)  when pushing a stroller or shopping cart or even carrying my little one as it does not always pick up steps during these activities...

[SantiR]

@jimmyg_1 Interesting! I will love to see a picture of it! Can you upload one? 

@SunsetRunner Welcome to the Fitbit Community! The best thing to do when strolling is to manually log it! (Check @GisselleM's steps). That way you can get those steps that weren't tracked! I left a picture below showing how it looks! 

Keep me posted! 

[Angiemickey72]

I loop mine around my bra strap & bucks in the last hole so I don't lose steps like if I'm washing dishes or to give my arm a break from wearing it as they suggest. I do that since I sweat a lot so it won't get too damp in my bra. Just sharing an idea with you.

the problem i have is that i like to do Fight Klub which means i wear boxing gloves - i find the movment of the gloves stops my Blaze.  I really need another way of wearing it. 

[SantiR]

@ntmitch Welcome to the Fitbit Community! Have you tried to wear the Blaze a little bit far up your wrist? That is even recommended to get a better heart rate reading while doing intense workout. Check this post I did for more details on that. The other thing you can do is to manually log your boxing activity (check @GisselleM's post), as this option will also give you accurate data for that activity. Check the picture I left below!

@jimmyg_1 I wasn't able to see your previous post! Do you need some help? 

@Angiemickey72 Thanks for the advice and for sharing it! Hopefully, that will help other users on this Community! 

Hope this helps. Let me know how it goes!

@jimmyg_1, would you mind attaching the picture using the "Photos" option at the top of the text box for the picture to show on your post and for @AnthonyV1279 to be able to see it please?

[jimmyg_1]

This is the cigarette lighter belt clip I use. last bought it from Amazon for under 10 dollars. I use it all the time and it counts steps correctly 

[FerdinandFitbit]

Wow!!! That looks really cool @jimmyg_1! Thank you so much for attaching the picture. I'll consider getting one myself haha.
