Charging blaze during activity with pause mode

Hi there I would like to ask that can I charge my Fitbit blaze while putting the activity on pause mode because I really go for long rides.

@adsharma   I don't know about charging in pause, but I do have some general advice.  Fitbit specifically says not to use an external battery pack to recharge devices.  You will be recharging it at your own risk.  Some users have said that very large maps (from very long walks, hikes, rides) will not load.  Fitbit does not give any guidance about the maximum size map, meaning amount of data, it will support.  I suggest you do trial rides, or you may know from experience, the largest size map you have been able to download.

Certainly a better idea to start/stop the ride in segments.  You should also monitor your Blaze's battery consumption during GPS rides.  You might not need to recharge it if you start with a full charge.
