Sense battery is draining quickly

[SueNYY2]

What is the expectant battery life of a Fitbit? I'm on my 4th Fitbit in the past 7 years. Am I the only one having this issue? Can the battery be changed instead of buying a new Fitbit every time? Thank you.

Hi there, @SueNYY2. Welcome to the Fitbit Community Forums. I'm sorry to hear that the battery of your Sense is draining quickly. I understand your concern, I will do my best to help you! 

If you haven't done so yet, please try the following steps:

1. Confirm your Sense has the latest firmware version. For more information please visit How do I update my Fitbit device? and What's changed in the latest Fitbit device update?
2. Check to see if you’re using high battery use features. For more information please visit Can I extend my Fitbit device's battery life?
3. Let’s try a restart. For more information please see How do I restart my Fitbit device?

Nonetheless, please bear in mind that as all rechargeable batteries age, they deteriorate to some extent and an older device will need to be charged more often than a new one. The best way of minimizing this effect is to avoid deep discharges of the battery. To maximize the overall life of your Fitbit device's battery, ideally keep it between 20-80%.  Many people find that a daily battery boost works best ( e.g. giving it a 15 minutes charge while you are showering in the morning).

I have the same problem with my Sense. I bought it 1 year ago. Isn't it a bit soon for the battery to die after 24 hours of regular use (No GPS, No constant syncing and No extra apps)? I love my Sense but I need a watch that can last longer.
