I have had my Charge2 a little over 2 years.  It worked fine yesterday...died on me today.  I have cleaned the terminals and tried restarting it.  Nothing is bringing it back to life.  Just wondering...what is the average life span of a Charge2?  It seems there are quite a few posts on here for the same issue right around the time that Charge2's are reaching 2 years old.  Is it just time to buy a new one?  I do enjoy it a lot...great data when jogging and walking, heart rate, etc...

My husband and I both got Charge 2s in April of 2017.  Mine is still working fine but we had to replace his about a year ago.  I kept expecting mine to go out after his did but so far so good.

I bought mine Aug 2017 and have had no issues so far so hitting the 3 year mark this Aug .  It works great!  My husband's watch is still alive as well.  My mother's in-laws did die in her though.  Guess we lucked out!
