Welcome to the Fitbit Community, @Jasonwood20. I'll be happy to assist with your Fitbit inquiry.

As @gdio53 mentioned, you should be more clear with your query. Do you want to discard your device and battery? I'd recommend taking them to a recycling center. You can check: How do I recycle my Fitbit device?

Replacing the batteries on a Fitbit is not something for most users as it is very hard not to destroy the circuit board in the process. I would suggest buying a new/refurbed/used/etc watch that can be returned if problems are immediately apparent. Hope that helps.

I'm not sure what the original question was, but if you are handy, you can find you tube videos for replacing batteries on your model of fitbit.
