I have had recent Heart issues where I need to monitor my rate somewhat accurately. During an exercise class today, my Heart rate was showing as 130 but when I checked it my rate was in the low 70s. 

I can understand being off by a little bit, but almost double is unacceptable. Anyone else have this issue, or a solution?

Hi @Brad_G, welcome to the Community Forums! 

Thanks for bringing this to my attention and the details that were shared in your post. If you believe that the heart rate information that's being tracked with your Blaze isn't accurate, I suggest you to learn more about how your device track such information here and then take in consideration the steps that are specified on: How do I improve the accuracy of my heart-rate reading on my Fitbit device?

Keep me posted and let me know if you have any additional questions.
