Versa battery draining fast

[JWCAMPBELL]

My original Versa would not hold a charge for more than 5 hours. My replacement lasts for approx 2 days. Is this good bad or average?

Juan, I did these as per instructions when my original fitbit battery failed to hold its charge.The replacement battery is better and I have followed the previous instructions. But still only lasts for two days.

I got my Versa for Christmas & it has worked beautifully unil about a month ago.  The red light on the back came on & wouldn't go off. It DRAINED the battery soooo fast. So, I reset & powered on & off several times until the red light finally went off & it has presumably  been working like it should but now the battery wont last 2 days.  I have followed all the battery saving options & changed setti gts to several configurations but nothing is working.

My first Fitbit battery only lasted 4-5 hours even with everything turned off. With the same things off, The new one only lasts two days. Don’t know what else to switch off. But should we have too?

Originally right out of the box I was getting 4 days with the settings I had. Then the red light thing happened & not it's not even lasting 2 after turning all the things off.

Have you contacted Fitbit support. They were very helpful to me.
