Hey,
Anybody else with the blaze have issues with charging?
It died so I didn’t wear it for a couple of days because I kept forgetting to plug it in.
I finally did overnight and it didn’t charge.
I tried a hard reset, nothing.
It’s not turning on.
It’s only a little over a year old.. I contacted Fitbit and since it’s over a year they’re only offering me 25% off a new blaze.
Kinda disappointed... my charge HR I had prior lasted a lot longer.
Any tips on something to try?
There were no signs of failure... I don’t know what happened.

    Check the contacts on the back. No idea what the charger on the blaze looks like, but on my charge HR the contacts would get a layer of corrosion/gunk on them that would stop them charging. If I scraped it off with a small screwdriver or similar it would charge again. Have a look at the back and if the contacts look dull it might be worth a try
