Fitbit Blaze has gone flat and screen is just flashing on and off

My fitbit blaze has gone flat and now won't do anything, the screen is just lighting up and going straight back off again. I've tried rebooting it, charging it, leaving it to completely die and charging again. Nothing is happening.

Mine did the same thing about an hour ago.  I charged it, tried to sync and my phone said no device found.  My watch is completely black.

Mine won't even charge.

Exactly the same here. Charged it yesterday then it completely died this afternoon.

Mine has just come back on saying clock error, choose another clock. Sid that, rebooted it and charged ok. This is the 2nd time in about 5 weeks it has done this.

My watch came back on today, with the battery low and is now working.

No such luck for me, mine didn't come back to life. I was going to give up and get a Samsung Watch but Fitbit offered a replacement or 50% off, I've gone for the 50% offer and upgraded to a Versa 2.

Thing is, I got my Versa Lite through a 50% offer exactly a year ago when my Blaze failed the same way, so I appear to be slowly working my way through the various models due to them being faulty.

Fingers crossed this one lasts more than 12 months or it will probably be my last Fitbit.

Once my blaze dies, I am going to get the Galaxy Watch Active 2 with LTE because you can actually make and receive calls from your watch even if you left your phone at home.  I don't take my phone with me when I am walking at 5:30 am and there were times that I actually needed it.  You have to get the Stainless Steel model that is cell phone compatible.  It is around $429 + 10 on your cell phone bill, but worth it to me.
