diy fitbit charger
The Fitbit Community is a gathering place for real people who wish to exchange ideas, solutions, tips, techniques, and insight about the Fitbit products and services they love. So what do I do? The charger I however need. 08:32 It is a product defect. It's a new device. So my 5th Charge HR band wore out again and my 1yr warranty is finally up. - last edited on
Obviously your one year warranty in this case is not suitable. Here is a not-so-perfect drawing I made in Illustrator. Now my new one has a band that is bubbling up. Sometimes you need to reset a FitBit that is completely emptied for batteries, this is done by holding down the button a few seconds untill charging icon is shown. Does anyone know of any 3rd parties that can replace the band or have any nifty ideas on how to fix it? 10:04 I used a USB cord and electrical tape, although I have that at home I purchased the items to check the price, it cost me 10USD. To charge first tape the strip down in the middle, then overlay some tape at the end of the strip to secure the strip to the FitBit, making sure the bump rests in the dent and the two wires are connected with the metal connectors. Just gone through my second strap which cost me $50 ...just fell off .....nothing wrong with it but unfixable....carried my Fitbit around in my pocket whilst I go for a new strap....but now lost it.....so....with that in mind will now try an Apple ...think the straps might be better....bye bye Fitbit...... @sydney1908 nice to hear from you again. I lost the charger to my FitBit One. Do you realize that is poor motivation to make future purchase from your company?
Catch you later.
09-11-2018 My first attempt, the prototype- was a very nasty hack (but worked). - edited Like my response? For many it might be free replacement bands indefinitely. Shame on you!
Replacement bands go for as cheap as $4 retail on ebay, but of course, we all know that these, too, will likely disintegrate within a couple of years. We also want to mark the strip and the FitBit for the cables, and red is for power (phase conductor), while green and yellow combo conductor is for ground (North US and Europe as far as I know).
How many unsatisfied customers do you have to rack up before you stand behind your product? 09-11-2018 The woven band is made from a comfortable polyester and includes an aluminum buckle."
Go to the Best Answer. I have called Fitbit several times and all they want to do is offer me 25% off a new one. - last edited on Then loop the wires that are exposes, to make two round patches that will be used to connect to the FitBit connectors.
I have a USB cable I can cut open to make a temporary charger while on vacation theese weeks. Very disappointed in Fitbit and I don’t have one right now because I’m so upset about their lack of caring. There is a whole forum about the buttons failing to work over time and other problems. Another manufacturer may have a more reasonable warranty and better products. @LogreggThe Surge may just cause you more headaches. planning to do anything to improve the Surge or is it the end of the line for it.
This is my third Fitbit with exactly the same problem. For me, I think we should be given a replacement watch with the same functionality for free. Fitbit makes an awesome watch, it is really very unfortunate that the decisions made regarding the band were such a bad business mistake. So I will purchase that from Amazon.... not Fitbit.
This was created in a moment of despair ;). Fitbit is not following a business model for longevity. by I am sorry to hear about your Fitbit charger but keep in mind that you can only use a cradle to charge your Blaze. I'm sure Fitbit is looking for ways to prevent this from happening, like introducing interchangeable bands in their newer devices.
Plus they are interchangeable.

Remember that the Blaze battery lasts 5 to 7 days. But ...... First I have to say that I'm glad (and more than a bit sad) that I am not alone in this experience.
In order for me to investigate you case further, I kindly ask you to answer the following questions: - Did the tracker or the band (or both) get lost? 07-05-2017 The wait sucks more than the money. But I, for one, urge you to reconsider this. Here are my prototype photos, it was 2AM and I had no tape, but I did have an MVP sticker :D Not a very safe or reusable model ;). Use the bump placed on the FitBit dent to measure where they should be before taping into place. My creativity manifests itself on the page and that’s about it.
The strip has to be taped in place for charging. I went ahead and created a case with customer support in your behalf for you to get further assistance. I’m so mad. 04-28-2017
May 18, 2016 - DIY Fitbit Wristband in Two Seconds I’m not your arts and craftsy type of person. And I have a thing for DIY. Went on a vacation and forgot my charger at home, need som help figuring out polarity on the charger. @Julieboboley Thanks for sharing your feedback on this thread. So Fitbit encouraged me to opt in this active zone challenge and I did and now it’s trying to prompt me to buy a different, newer Fitbit (I have a charge 3) in order to take part. Hello everyone! I don’t have a clipper for this, so I simply used a box cutter and made an ever so small cut/dent around the cable and used my teeth to pull of the cable (yes my teeth) carefully.
Now I am getting the "past warranty" reply again since the replacement does not have its own warranty, which to me makes no sense.
Surprise. If you decide to get a new Fitbit device, check the upcoming Fitbit Charge 3. Unless you can do better than offering a 25% discount on a new watch for watches whose bands fell apart outside of the warranty period then I doubt you will please anyone here, Ferdinand.

This is not the way to do business!
One of my most popular posts is actually a DIY, it’s this one: Re-cutting an old VGA cable to fit both a HDMI and VGA cable on my laptop (Asus X53 (X53SK-SX028V) for two external monitors, So here is an (ugly?) Thanks for contacting customer support.
FYI Fitbit, your products are not cheap. 00:27 Creating your account is completely free, and takes about a minute. Tape the end of the strip and the thick end of the cable to have a smooth trasition from strip to cable.

Did you fully charged your Blaze before going to vacations? 20:15 I have one and this is what happened. Since its important that we have both the conductors attached at the same time we need to find a way to place them right. I just need a new wrist band. In any event, I have the choice of replacing the band myself, which looks hard, but doable; or moving on to a new company with products that last longer. My Fitbit is just over a year old.

What would please us?
Hat dir dieser Post geholfen? 09-10-2018 Well, I didn’t want to fork out for 30$ for a new one, I wanted it charged *NOW*. 08:50. looks like a metro-man or gender-neutral version of the Surge. Bezeichne ihn als Lösung und gib mir Kudos. If you're looking for a new device, we recommend considering Ionic. Did you eventually find this out? Also, I lost the Bluetooth device, but I never log in anyway. Since if you use another type of charger you can damage the Fitbit.
What happened to pride in your product? Fitbit is the only one that does it right that I know of. It’s unbelievable to me that your HR is so defective. The Fitbit Charge 3 looks like a metro-man or gender-neutral version of the Surge. The only one that never gave any issues was the Zip. Find more information about Ionic here. SantiR. Used: Electrical tape (two colors, but you can use a marker for color). Given the volume of customers complaining of the same issue, it is clearly not wear and tear.
I guess your customers will just have to go elsewhere to get a quality product.
then continue with this policy. If you split a USB cable you will see four tiny cables: Hopefully if they collapse they'll be bought out by someone who adopts their floor counting algorithm.
Thanks for your participation on this thread. Images for that one is at the end of the post, please choose method one ;).
How about making your product more durable? My strap is out too! Love the products / Hate the customer service.
My original charge HR was damaged, I got a replacement from Fitbit - that was a good news story as it was past warranty and I got the standard 25% off at first.
