The blaze advertises a 5 day battery. When I orginially got it, it would last 2-3, which I thought was no big deal because I played with it alot. However, the last week or so my battery seems to be draining. Yesterday I let it fully charged and have made it a point to not play with it excessively since it was charged. It has been about 20 hours and I have < 1/4th battery remaining. Is there something going on in the background that is just draining my battery? I didnt pay this much to charge my watch daily and I can't find why the battery won't last.

The fix is simple, do the same thing I did. Buy a Garmin! I gave up on Fitbit after having 5 watches fail for various reasons. Any company that cannot produce a product without it failing for AT  LEAST a year should not be in business.

Got rid of my fit bit switched to Apple phone and AutoSleep app and HeartWatch just as good and charges. Was with Fitbit for 6 years wasted about 6 to 7 hundred dollars started with a one the only good one went through 6 other ones band problems on all of those surges etc the blaze not charging. Even though customer service rep said I would be happy with it. I wasn’t. suprised They are still a company

Thanks for reccomendation.  Been a Fitbit customer for 5 years, but looks like I need to rethink staying with them. Which  Garmin did you get?

Same here, been with Fitbit a number of years now, but sick of the watches not lasting. Offered 25% off a new one (laughable) you can buy them anywhere with that discount. Defo., thinking of going Garmin or Apple watch. Bye bye Fitbit.
