Blaze battery life

[gklennert]

I've had my Blaze for over a year and in the last 2-3 days it has started to show a much shorter battery life.  We're talking up until the past few days I could go 4-5 DAYS without having to charge it.  Now, I"m lucky if I make it 4-5 HOURS.

I've left it charge for a full day and it has done the same thing.  I have restarted my Blaze multiple times.  I have shutdown my Blaze mutliple times.  I have disabled the heart rate function.  I have turned off all non-essential functions.  None of these troubleshooting measures have helped solve the problem.  Any ideas?  I've been looking at Apple Watch options, and this latest glitch might be enough of a push to get me to switch over.

Any answer on this?  I charged my blaze yesterday, this morning, and its already dead.
