Fitbit Blaze Charger

[Medic14]

Would like to see a better device to charge my Fitbit Blaze instead of popping the face component out of the band.  I saw there is a Blaze (dock/charging station) why can't the current Fitbit users be upgraded to this.  I feel I am going to break the buttons on my Fitbit Blaze everytime I pop it in and out to charge.

Hi, @Medic14, I don't think Fitbit are selling a Blaze dock/charging station -- only the charger all Blaze users have, so if you are seeing something different, I think it must be produced by a 3rd party.  

I do appreciate your concern, but I will say that after almost 10 months, the buttons on my Blaze aren't showing any signs of breaking or wear, so hopefully yours will be fine too. Depending on your country, your Fitbit will be under warranty for at least one year and up to two years.

@Medic14  Amazon has several third party chargers, 2 of which you don't need to remove the Blaze from the band

Yes I saw that, this is why I was inquiring if Fitbit has them yet, they sure make more sense then the current charging system.

I purchased from Amazon a docking station thingy that doesn't require taking out the battery.  I love it.

I will quote you @Medic14

 I simply told you where you can go to upgrade to this model.. I.dont see why Fitbit needs to purchase a third party charger so that you can pay Fitbit for an upgrade.. These chargers do not come with a Blaze of you by one today, so no Fitbit is not offerring them to anybody. 

You asked why the current Fitbit users not upgrade, who told you that you can not?

@Medic14I have bought a Blaze alternative charger its an Awinner Easy Charger Clip

and I love it. I use a mesh strap and all I have to do is open the clip, slot the Blaze into the holder and close the clip. No removing the Blaze and putting it in backwards or losing it.

I also have a silver and a black 3rd party mesh strap which makes it easy to put on and to tighten to just the right size.

So trust in 3rd party accessories and don't worry that Fitbit haven't got an expensive version. (sorry about the double negative!)

I've also been searching for a docking charger. Reviews are iffy. Some work well. Others kill battery life and get hot. It would be wonderful if Fitbit came out with a docking charger for it. I've had such bad luck in the past with third party chargers on any device so I like to buy "brand name" chargers only. I'll probably deal with taking it in and out. Luckily if I have a problem with the buttons the warrantee is great with Fitbit and I've never had issues getting my products replaced If and when I needed them to be.

Great to see you around @loftygit and @Lauren93 welcome to the Community.

I appreciate all your feedback about the Blaze charger. I took the liberty and searched some request about this but didn't find any. Please take a look at our feature suggestions board and share your ideas about the Blaze charger.

Catch you later.
