my Fitbit seems terrible at monitoring exercise heart rate

on the elliptical it was 50 beats slower than it should be.  On the stairclimber, for which I had used the Fitbit to indicate I was stair climbing, it was accurate though.  Any clues?

You say it is lower than it should be, but was it lower then what your heart rate was? As a person builds up their heart muscle. The HR should go down.
