We have a Charge 2 and an Inspire HR … also have 3 mini chargers that carry the brand name Pocket Juice … we use the chargers a lot to charge our phones on the go … they work great.
But they don’t work with our FitBit’s … even though they have a USB port for that purpose …
I’ve talked with Tzumi, the mfg of the Pocket Juice products, and they agree they aren’t compatible with FitBit, but “they say they don’t know why” …
Does anyone know of any portable chargers that DO work with FitBit products to charge them on the go?
Thanks for your help!!

Hi @JDBear I finished experimenting with my power banks to see which of them will charge my Alta HR. All three show it as charging the Fitbit and I was able to restart the device while it was charging.
1. Aduro PowerUp 11,000 mAh Portable Backup Battery Model PW-11KO4-BT- from Amazon
2. PURIDEA S5 7000mAh Power Bank - from Amazon
3. Ubio Labs 10,000mAh Portable Charger - from Costco
These last ones did NOT work
4. Morphie - small (size of a roll of quarters) - from Costco/Verizon
5. Aduro 10400mAh Charger IP54 - Hobby Lobby
6. IHarbort 10000mAh Ultra-Thin Aluminum 2 port
So, it seems no two Aduro power banks are alike when it comes to charging the Fitbits!
Hope you find the right one for your Fitbits.

@JDBear found one in my car that works, too.
Puridea S2 External Battery Pack 10000mAh from Amazon
