Hi @Elect99, welcome to the Community Forums.
Thanks for bringing this to our attention and for trying some troubleshooting steps before posting over here. To better assist you with this, can you please let me know if the heart rate sensors are flashing or is your device completely unresponsive? If you haven't already done so, I recommend you to check our help article: Why isn't my battery charging on my Fitbit device? and let me know how it goes. Such article includes a restart process which can be really helpful for this situation
Looking forward to your reply.

Your update is appreciated @Elect99.
I'm sorry to know that you're still experiencing difficulties with your Fitbit Versa. Since the steps from my previous post didn't solve the issue, please try the ones below to factory reset your device and let me know if the issue persists:
Take in consideration that a factory reset deletes any stored data, which includes all data that hasn't synced to your Fitbit account and your applications, alarms, etc.
Let me know if further assistance is needed and if you have any additional questions.

I tried what you was suggested
The FitBit came back on for about 2 hours, it showed low battery despite just being charged. I charged it again, it last time more hours and has now died again. It is on the charger and will not switch on again.
Can it just be replaced? This is my second FitBit which has died like this. Getting a little frustrated and disappointed
