That's way over estimate! I can't see it double county anything or being connected to anything. I am trying to compare my Fitbit to my Samsung watch. On work days I sit at a computer all day and work from home (2nd pic). My samsung says my TDEE is 1900 ish on these days.

Maybe I am just being thick and it's correct. When I used to be on my feet all day at work I was averaging 14k steps and 2500 calories a month.

Could it be due to heart rate monitoring? I've turned it off and going to see any difference on Monday.

Yes I did that yesterday, saw it still appeared wrong this afternoon, so decided to turn of the HR monitor to see if it was that. So far today 1324 steps and 1513 calories.
