New slim band for Blaze-doesn’t fit tracker properly causing battery drain

[SunsetRunner]

So, I got the new pink and gold band for Christmas because my original band bit the dust. Put tracker in and my battery kept draining in a few hours. Thought it was an update or syncing problem so I read all of those help forums and did all the suggestions. Then by process of elimination I figured maybe the new frame was draining the battery by continually pushing a button. I put my tracker in “backwards” so the band buttons wouldn’t match up with tracker buttons and wouldn’t you know it????!!! the battery remained charged for its typical 3ish days. Poor design for those of us that have older Blaze trackers

Where was it bought?

As there are several off market bands and frames out there.

It was purchased directly from FitBit, and was quite pricy which is why I’m unnerved. As long as my tracker is in backwards the battery remains charged as it should
